Bookmark Resorts, the experiential hospitality brand by Onora Hospitality, has begun development on a new project in Jawai, Rajasthan. Bookmark Resorts Cheetagarh is expected to open in 1 October 2026. The new retreat will provide wilderness stays and offer guests exclusive experiences in the dramatic hills, serene lakes, and beautiful and untouched countryside of Jawai. It will further develop Rajasthan as a destination for nature-based luxury travel.

Located amid Jawai’s striking granite landscapes, serene lakes and untamed wilderness, the new luxury retreat will feature 20 keys and expand Bookmark Resorts’ growing collection of experience-focused properties. The resort aims to offer travellers an immersive stay experience in one of Rajasthan’s most distinctive natural destinations, renowned for its rugged beauty and thriving leopard habitat.

With the addition of Cheetagarh, Bookmark Resorts further strengthens its presence across India’s emerging leisure destinations. The brand’s existing portfolio includes retreats in Ranthambore, Rajasthan; Manali, Himachal Pradesh; and Kanha, Madhya Pradesh, each designed around the character, culture and environment of its location.

The Jawai property also marks Onora Hospitality’s second resort in the region’s famous leopard landscape, following the launch of jüSTa Luxe Highpoint Jawai in 2025. The expansion highlights the company’s continued focus on developing premium hospitality experiences in nature-rich destinations across India.

“The Bookmark Resorts brand is about creating places where travellers can slow down, reconnect and experience a destination in a meaningful way. Jawai is an extraordinary setting for this philosophy, and Cheetagarh gives us the opportunity to create a truly distinctive experience around its landscape, wildlife and sense of place. We want our guests to leave feeling not just that they have visited somewhere remarkable, but that they have been genuinely restored by the experience,” said Ashish Vohra, Founder & CEO, Onora Hospitality.

With its exclusive setting and intimate design, Bookmark Resorts Cheetagarh will offer guests a deeper connection with Jawai’s natural beauty, wildlife, heritage and local way of life. The retreat has been designed to showcase the destination through immersive experiences that highlight the region’s landscapes, culture, cuisine and peaceful surroundings.

The resort will feature elegantly designed chalets and rooms, including private-pool accommodations, along with a range of leisure and wellness facilities such as a swimming pool, spa and curated guest experiences. Every element of the property has been created to provide a tranquil escape where travellers can unwind while staying closely connected to the character of Jawai.

Food and dining will form a key part of the guest experience. Rotela Café will offer all-day dining with a diverse culinary selection, while a specially designed waterside grill overlooking Rotela Lake will provide a relaxed dining atmosphere surrounded by Jawai’s striking natural scenery.

Famous for its thriving leopard habitat and the rare harmony between wildlife and surrounding communities, Jawai offers travellers a unique opportunity to experience nature in its most authentic form. Guests at Cheetagarh can explore the destination through jeep safaris, birdwatching, nature trails and cultural journeys, while also enjoying moments of relaxation within the calm environment of the resort.

The launch of Cheetagarh reflects the evolving vision of the Bookmark Resorts brand, which focuses on creating restorative sanctuaries that allow travellers to reconnect with themselves and their surroundings. The brand’s approach to restoration goes beyond traditional wellness offerings by combining nature, culinary experiences, discovery, relaxation and thoughtful hospitality.

Through Bookmark Resorts Cheetagarh, the brand continues to develop destination-led properties that celebrate the unique identity of each location. The retreat aims to provide travellers with a meaningful experience that extends beyond a conventional luxury stay, creating lasting memories through authentic connections with nature, culture and the destination.
