Prestige aims to build lavish golf-themed resorts in 3 cities-Goa is one of them

Bengaluru: Leading real estate firm Prestige Group plans to develop lavish golf-themed, resort-style residential projects in Goa, Lonavala and Hyderabad, as it aims to replicate its signature Golfshire property near Bengaluru in other locations, a top company official said. The large-format projects, to be developed on the outskirts of the cities, will bespread across 300-400 acres, and will have a golf course, high-end villas and a hotel and a convention centre. Prestige Golfshire is a 275-acre golf resort at Nandi Hills, on the outskirts of Bengaluru,that has a JW Marriott hotel, premium villas,an 18-hole golf course and a club. A typical four-bedroom villa here starts at ₹14.5 crore. Bengaluru-based Prestige's plans to develop these expansive Golfshire-inspired projects are in line with the concept of large, lifestyle-driven destination projects that are gaining favour among high net worth customers, including top corporate honchos. Locations such as Alibaug and Lonavala, both near Mumbai, for instance, are already seeing interest from developers and buyers alike. 'Each project has to be a minimum 300 acres in size to do such developments. The Golfshire brand is well-established in Bengaluru and we want to now take it to other geographies," Prestige Group chairman and managing director Irfan Razack said in an interview with Mint. Prestige already has access to the land in Goa and Lonavala, while it is in the process of tying up the land on the outskirts of Hyderabad, Razack said. For the Lonavala project, Prestige has partnered with the Mumbai-based Valor Estate, formerly known as DB Realty. 'The Lonavala land parcel spans nearly 400 acres and will feature a golf course with a private club, a luxury hotel with convention facilities, golf villas, apartments and potentially an education hub, which is currently under consideration," said Vinod Kumar Goenka, chairman and managing director, Valor Estate. While the overall investment is still being finalized, the collaboration brings together Valor's legacy in land and location, and Prestige's execution strength to deliver an integrated lifestyle experience, Goenka added. While the demand for second homes gained pace post-pandemic, developers such as Prestige are looking at large projects to create destinations that will cater to a niche, premium customer base. Prashant Thakur, head of research and advisory at property consultancy Anarock Group, said these kinds of lifestyle developments are tailored for high net worth individuals (HNI) and C-suite executives. 'It's a strategic move for any developer to do such projects that can command a 30-50% premium over a regular villa development. They can also offer a recurring revenue stream for the developer," Thakur said. 'Grade A developers such as Prestige and DLF have a captive HNI and NRI customer base, and these projects can offer such buyers an opportunity to invest."

Developers such as DLF and Prestige are showcasing art at their luxury malls in Delhi and Bengaluru, while hotel chains like Leela have opened restaurants with a focus on Hospitality has opened a restaurant, Arts Room, in Delhi's Saket where diners can buy art using the QR codes on the art works.'Globally, art finds a place in shopping malls and airports and some luxury brands also tie up with artists for designing the product. As art is life, and life is art, it has become an important aspect of retail as well,' said Padma Shri awardee artist Paresh Maity. 'We have started seeing the trend in India also with Jio World Convention Centre and some malls displaying and selling art. In India, art was always public and with hotels, restaurants and malls now promoting it, it will create more awareness about art.'While Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre in Mumbai has a luxury retail space nearby, the upcoming Kiran Nadar Museum of Arts is also likely to have luxury retail space.'Art has always been integral to public spaces in India — from architecture to everyday craft. Today, we're seeing a natural extension of that in luxury malls, hotels, restaurants and high-end residential condominiums, where art is not just displayed but also made accessible. Globally too, art increasingly finds its way into unconventional spaces, from airports to retail, enriching everyday experiences,' said Amit Goyal, managing director, India Sotheby's International a leading auction house, has conducted several art exhibitions and auctions in collectors and connoisseurs, art acquisition is a serious business and conventionally they go through established routes such as galleries and auction houses and private sales, which offer provenance and curation.'Art adds visual interest and depth, making spaces more inviting and visually stimulating. In premium retail real estate, curated art collections elevate the perceived value of a property, signalling sophistication. At UB city, Sublime Galleria, we collaborate with emerging artists, fostering a culture of creativity while giving our properties a distinct and exclusive identity,' said Uzma Irfan, director, UB City, Prestige said that once art lived in quiet galleries and museums and that it needs to be mixed with shopping and food so that more people get access to it.'The idea is to make art more accessible. While we are a restaurant first, we also offer a unique experience where guests can explore and engage with curated artworks as part of their visit,' said Navneet R Bajaj, owner, Arts Room (Ambrosia Hospitality). 'Many may not make a separate trip to an art gallery, but here, they can admire, learn about and even purchase art — with 100% of the proceeds going directly to the artists. We take no commission, serving instead as a platform to support and celebrate Indian artists.'The Leela Palace New Delhi recently opened The Qube restaurant with a cinematic digital art wall in collaboration with art platform Masha Art. The canvas features a rotating collection of digital artworks by upcoming Indian artists such as Shrikant Kadam, Swaraj Das, Seema Kohli and Rajesh Badaria.'We have curated an immersive experience where contemporary design, global flavours and digital art come together in harmony. This offers our guests a new way to engage with hospitality, which is culturally rich,' said Preeti Makhija, general manager at The Leela Palace New players said that restaurants, cafes, hotels and cultural hubs are now also becoming creative playgrounds.
