The Space & Setting
The Tennis Court Lawn at jüSTa Rudra Resort & Spa is an open-air event lawn set within the resort's lush, green grounds in Kolad, Maharashtra. Surrounded by the natural beauty that defines this riverside destination — dense foliage, fresh air, and the unhurried pace of the Sahyadri foothills — the lawn offers a refreshingly organic backdrop that no banquet hall can replicate. The space takes its name from its origins as a tennis court, giving it a naturally defined, level surface that translates well into a flexible event setting. Whether dressed up with floral mandaps, fairy lights, and draped canopies or kept minimal for a corporate gathering under the open sky, the lawn adapts readily to the vision of the event planner.
The outdoor format means natural daylight floods the space during the day, while evenings transform into an intimate, starlit setting that guests consistently find memorable. The resort's landscaped surroundings provide a ready-made aesthetic frame, reducing the décor effort needed to create atmosphere. Because this is an open-air venue, events here carry an inherently relaxed, resort feel — one that distinguishes gatherings here from those held in conventional urban banquet spaces.
Events & Occasions
The Tennis Court Lawn is well suited to a range of celebrations and gatherings. Wedding functions — including mehendi ceremonies, sangeet nights, haldi rituals, and intimate wedding receptions — are among the most popular uses for this space, with its outdoor character lending itself naturally to the colour and movement these occasions demand. Small to mid-sized social celebrations such as birthday parties, anniversary dinners, and family reunions also find a natural home here, as do corporate offsites, team-building retreats, and informal product launches that benefit from a relaxed, nature-immersed environment.
Kolad's identity as a leading adventure-tourism destination in Maharashtra means that many groups combine a stay at jüSTa Rudra with white-water rafting on the Kundalika River and then gather at the lawn for an evening celebration or team dinner — making the venue a practical anchor for multi-activity group programmes. The resort's hospitality team supports event setups with in-house catering, décor coordination, and audio-visual arrangements, though specific package details should always be confirmed directly with the property.
Location & Accessibility
jüSTa Rudra Resort & Spa is located in Kolad, a small town in the Raigad district of Maharashtra, widely recognised as one of the closest adventure-tourism hubs to both Mumbai and Pune. Kolad sits approximately 117 kilometres from Mumbai and roughly 140 kilometres from Pune, making it a practical weekend-escape destination for guests travelling from either city. The nearest major railway station is Mangaon, and the resort is accessible by road via the Mumbai–Goa Highway (NH-66), which is well connected and scenic. For event planners organising outstation group bookings, this accessibility is a tangible advantage — guests from two of India's largest metropolitan cities can reach the venue comfortably within a few hours, without requiring air travel.
