Located near Colva Beach, Acacia Palms has been a go-to for travellers looking for Goan charm with a Club Mahindra touch.

Even the traditionally male-dominated departments like electrical work, kitchen stewarding, mechanical maintenance, etc., now have strong women leading. This transformation is not just special for the women who have taken on these amazing roles, but also sends a message that women can and should lead in every corner of the hospitality industry. For many team members, this is their first time working in such roles, and Club Mahindra is providing them with training and a platform that can help them thrive in their careers.

And Tanvi Choksi, the company’s CHRO, says, “True inclusion goes beyond intent.” 

At Acacia Palms, women aren’t just employed; they are empowered to lead and inspire. In this industry often dominated by men, Club Mahindra is setting a benchmark by challenging norms and nurturing true talent.
