Shreya Shimpi

How has the year 2024 been for your property in terms of occupancy and the ARR?

Last year, on average, we did 50-55% business throughout the year. Our properties are seasonal; hence, from December to the end of April, we had about 77% occupancy.

 How important is India to you as a market?  

India is a significant market for us because of the travel time and similarities between our two countries. We have seen a year-on-year increase from the India market. We have noticed an uptick in Indian weddings and family gatherings.

Are you more focused on the Domestic market or Inbound or a mix of both?

From April to August, we receive guests from the domestic market. We usually have a good mix of around 25% domestic and 75% international guests.

Is your hotel following any sustainability / eco-friendly measures or adapting any means to give back to society?

Since the inception of our flagship property, Kahanda Kanda which has been running for the last seventeen years, we have adopted a zero-plastic policy. We take sustainability very seriously as we feel that sustaining our community is very important. For example, we do not keep plastic water bottles, plastic sachets of coffee or creamers. Across all our three properties, we have a French press, a canister of coffee, sugar and fresh milk cartons along with filtered water jugs. We provide rubber flip-flops instead of disposable ones. Ninety per cent of our staff is hired from the adjoining areas of our property. We grow vegetables, tea and flowers. We have got a gold-seal approval from the UN for our sustainable practices for KK Beach
