Opulent Oasis Hospitality Pvt. Ltd. has officially entered the hospitality sector with the launch of its debut experiential retreat, Wild Calm, marking a strategic foray into nature-led and experience-driven travel formats in India.

Founded by hospitality professional Bhavik Sheth, the venture positions itself in the growing experiential tourism segment, aiming to bridge the gap between high-end luxury stays and standardised commercial hospitality offerings. The company’s vision is centred on creating destination-led experiences that prioritise emotional connection, local context, and immersive design over scale-driven expansion.

Located in Sasan Gir, Gujarat, one of India’s most significant wildlife regions, Wild Calm will feature 53 keys, including private pool villas and immersive accommodation formats. The retreat is designed with a strong emphasis on nature integration and experiential living, offering a combination of leisure, wellness, and curated cultural engagement.

The property will include a clubhouse, swimming pool, multi-cuisine restaurant, kitchen garden, and an activity arena for curated programming. Outdoor amenities such as pickleball courts, box cricket facilities, and landscaped green zones including a Miyawaki forest further reinforce the retreat’s nature-first design philosophy.

Guest experiences at Wild Calm are structured around flexible, narrative-driven journeys. These include botanical walks, storytelling sessions, pottery workshops, curated high tea experiences, and slow evening rituals designed to encourage mindfulness and connection with the surrounding ecosystem.

Speaking on the launch, founder Bhavik Sheth said hospitality today has become highly standardised, often losing emotional depth despite operational efficiency. He emphasised that the goal of Opulent Oasis Hospitality is to design spaces that feel intuitive, rooted, and memorable, where experience is embedded into every layer of the stay rather than added as an activity.

Sheth previously worked with Evoke Experiences, where he contributed to the development of large-scale experiential properties such as Rann Utsav, further strengthening his background in destination-led hospitality design.

With Wild Calm as its inaugural project, the company plans a selective expansion strategy across wildlife destinations, eco-tourism circuits, desert landscapes, and culturally rich regions, while also exploring opportunities in Tier 2 and Tier 3 markets as well as emerging spiritual tourism segments.

Rather than pursuing rapid portfolio scale, Opulent Oasis Hospitality has indicated a focus on carefully curated destinations with strong ecological and cultural narratives, aligning with the broader shift in India’s travel industry toward experiential and purpose-driven hospitality
