The resort's culinary excellence is showcased at Vindhychal, its in-house multi-cuisine café, offering a delightful selection of vegetarian dishes from Indian, Continental, Chinese, and local cuisines.

Kevadia has emerged as a prominent tourist hub, primarily due to the Statue of Unity, the world’s tallest statue, dedicated to Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, India's first Deputy Prime Minister. Beyond this monument, the region is known for its stunning mountain ranges, the Sardar Sarovar Dam, and its tranquil natural beauty, making it a perfect destination for travelers seeking cultural and scenic experiences.
