Mars is a dedicated event space within Khanvel Resort, a resort property set in Khanvel, Silvassa — the green, forested heartland of Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu. The venue sits within a resort that is known for its lush natural surroundings and a sense of seclusion that distinguishes it from urban banquet halls and city hotels. That natural backdrop gives Mars a character well suited to events where guests want to step away from the everyday — combining the practical facilities of a purpose-built event space with the calm, open atmosphere that Khanvel's landscape provides.
The space is designed to accommodate a range of social and celebratory gatherings. Its setting within a resort means that guests have access to the wider property — outdoor areas, greenery, and resort amenities — making the overall event experience feel more immersive than a standalone venue. Whether the occasion calls for an intimate gathering or a larger celebration, the resort environment adds a dimension that a purely urban space cannot replicate.
Mars is suited to a variety of event formats. Wedding functions and receptions are a natural fit given the resort's atmosphere — couples looking for a destination-style celebration within a reasonable distance of Gujarat and Maharashtra will find Khanvel an appealing alternative to city venues. Corporate offsites, team gatherings, and milestone celebrations are equally at home here, where the natural setting can help groups disconnect and engage more meaningfully.
The resort's overall offering — with accommodation, dining, and outdoor spaces on site — means that multi-day events and residential programmes are a practical option. Groups travelling from Surat, Mumbai, or Vadodara benefit from Silvassa's accessibility despite its away-from-it-all feel, making it a workable choice for both day events and extended stays.
Khanvel Resort is located in Khanvel village in Silvassa, the administrative capital of Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu. Silvassa sits roughly midway between Mumbai and Surat, making it reachable from both cities within a few hours by road. The Khanvel area specifically is known within the union territory for its forest scenery and riverside character, offering event guests a genuine change of environment without requiring air travel or a lengthy journey.
For event planners weighing location, the combination of relative proximity to major urban centres and a genuinely resort-like setting makes Mars at Khanvel Resort a practical choice for destination events that do not demand long-haul logistics. The resort's own grounds provide a self-contained environment, reducing the need for guests to travel off-site during their stay.
