About Resort Lawns
The Space & Setting
The Resort Lawns at Nanu Resort offer a generous open-air event setting in the tranquil village of Betalbatim, on Goa's South Goa coastline. Surrounded by the lush tropical greenery characteristic of this quieter stretch of Goa, the lawns provide a natural, verdant backdrop that works equally well for elegant evening celebrations and daytime gatherings. The open-sky setting allows natural light and sea-touched breezes to define the atmosphere, making it a distinctly Goan experience that fully enclosed banquet spaces simply cannot replicate. The expanse of the lawns allows for flexible staging — from a traditional mandap or floral ceremony archway at one end to dining pavilions and a dance floor at the other — giving planners genuine creative freedom over how the space is shaped and styled for each event.
Events & Occasions
The Resort Lawns are particularly well suited to weddings and wedding-related celebrations, including sangeet nights, mehendi ceremonies, and reception dinners where the open setting and resort surroundings create a naturally festive mood. Corporate retreats, team outings, and product launches also find a comfortable home here, with the relaxed resort environment helping delegates transition between structured sessions and informal networking. Social gatherings — milestone birthdays, anniversary dinners, and family reunions — benefit from the privacy that a resort property affords compared to standalone banquet venues. Because Nanu Resort operates as a full hospitality property with accommodation and dining facilities on site, event guests can stay, dine, and celebrate without leaving the premises, which is a meaningful logistical advantage for multi-day events and destination weddings.
Location & Accessibility
Betalbatim sits in South Goa, positioned between the better-known beaches of Majorda and Colva, and is known for its relatively calm, residential character — a contrast to the busier tourist strips of North Goa. This location gives the Resort Lawns a sense of seclusion without placing guests far from Goa's broader network of attractions, restaurants, and transport links. Dabolim Airport (Goa International Airport) is the primary gateway for arriving guests, and Betalbatim is reachable from the airport via road in a manageable journey by taxi or hired vehicle, making it practical for outstation guests and wedding parties travelling from across India. The Madgaon (Margao) railway station, one of Goa's busiest rail hubs, is also within a reasonable distance, adding another convenient arrival option for guests who prefer train travel. For event planners coordinating large groups, the resort's self-contained nature — accommodation, outdoor lawns, and in-house hospitality under one roof — simplifies logistics considerably and reduces the coordination burden that comes with managing multiple third-party venues.
