hat do you picture yourself doing the next time you have a
couple of days off of your hectic schedule? Rather than lazing
around on the sofa all day, how about enjoying a meal cooked
especially for you amidst nature? Let the stress and troubles
of the city life melt away by attentive pampering at Swosti
Chilika Resort. Take in the lush greenery and recline comfortably as the
song of birds softly fills your surroundings. Swosti Group’s latest addition,
promises its guests a piece of heaven right on the shore of the largest la-
goon in the Northern Hemisphere. This eco-friendly resort, a one of its kind
in the state, allows you to experience the natural beauty of Odisha without
compromising on style or comfort.
AWAY FROM THE CONCRETE JUNGLE
Spread over nine acres of lush green area, it is the perfect place to relax
and recharge while your comfort becomes the priority for the resort’s very
competent workforce. Given its location, the resort is the hub of ecotourism.
While the more adventurous souls can take nature walks or go bird watch-
ing near the resort, those who wish to relax can take one of the in-house
boat rides to the nearby Kalijai temple and follow it up with a peaceful day
by the pool on return. If you love gardening, the resort also has its own hor-
ticulture section, where guests can learn about what actually goes into their
delicious meals. The horticulture section houses various varieties of spices,
medicinal plants, fruits, flowers and vegetables. Budding photographers too
will find ample photo opportunities and a lot of scope to capture birds and
animals in their natural habitat.
WHAT TO EXPECT
The journey to Swosti Chilika Resort
by road is most picturesque and full
of natural beauty. Be it any season,
the surrounding hills are covered in a
brilliant green shade and the natural
light during the day lends everything
a beautiful glow. Once at the gates of
the resort, you know you are in from
a treat. The Chilika Lake comes into
view once you go in through the gates
and reach the reception of the resort.
At first glance, you will recognise the
South-East Asian style of architecture
that was lent by the resort’s designer
from Thailand. This said, elements of
Odisha’s art and culture have also been
included to compliment the decor.
The staff here is warm, courteous and always
ready to help the guests. The resort presently houses 78
rooms, which are divided into three categories – luxury rooms,
state-of-the-art ultra modern luxury villas and lake view pool villas.
A presidential villa is also available to those who live life king size. Once
you are unpacked, head over to Orana, the resort’s dine-in restaurant that
serves fresh produce and seafood. The scrumptious local delicacies are
a must have here. The restaurant is known for its signature dish, Daab
Chinguri, where fresh prawns are cooked with local spices in a tender coco-
nut. Post a satisfying meal and a comfortable snooze, be sure to explore the
surroundings on one of the many bicycles the resort has for its guests. En
route, stop for a refreshing cold coffee or lemon tea at the resort’s coffee
shop, Beanhive. You may also head to Ekayaa, the resort’s spa villa that
houses a spa, gym and yoga centre. Relax with one of the many specialised
treatments like shirodhara, or massages like the lava stone massage to
experience pure bliss. Couples on vacation too can avail couple therapy and
massages. If you’re looking for something simpler, head to the in-house
swimming pool and enjoy drinks by the poolside. You may also enjoy the
open air restaurant, Tangrr, which overlooks the lake and serves mouth-
watering tandoori delicacies and fresh local catch.
The resort is also a great spot for family get-togethers and family
vacations. While the adults enjoy the various amenities mentioned above,
the youngsters can spend time at the resort’s game zones – Relayy and
Breakk. Complete with a pool table, the game zones are loaded with games
and amenities that are sure the keep the young minds engaged. Apart
from this, the resort also organises open grill nights at a nearby island and
picnics on request.

picturesque villages and dolphin sightings make Swosti Chilika Resort one
of the most exciting places to be in any time of the year. The resort has in-
store various recreational, leisure and sports activities to help its guests en-
joy their stay to the fullest. The nature lovers can explore the natural bounty
around through activities like, nature walks and bird watching, and during
the in-season visiting the haunts of the migratory birds and the hatching
of Olive Ridley turtles. Those looking for fun and adventure may enjoy boat
ride round the numerous islands or explore the lake at their own pace on a
jet ski. These are few of the many water sport activities that the resort of-
fers. The in-house amphitheatre also organises cultural programmes
from time to time for its guests. You can get a taste of the local
culture and art through these programmes.
While these hold true, Swosti Chilika Resort is
also an upcoming haunt for major companies
and businesses that hold their corporate
events and conferences in the resort’s
immaculate conference halls and
board room. These provide the perfect
ground for inspiration, away from the
lacklustre corporate environment. The
resort is also equally adept at handling
weddings and related functions. With
such an exquisite location and ser-
vices, the resort has become a much
