A Sun-Drenched Setting for Open-Air Celebrations

The Pool Side venue at Pride Ananya Resort Puri brings together the relaxed warmth of a beach resort atmosphere with the elegance expected of a full-service property. Set against the backdrop of the resort's outdoor pool area, this open-air space offers a distinctly Odishan coastal character — where natural light, a gentle sea breeze, and lush resort landscaping combine to create an ambiance that few indoor banquet halls can replicate. Whether guests arrive at dusk for a cocktail evening lit by string lights or gather midday for a poolside brunch, the setting adapts effortlessly to the mood of the occasion. The space is part of Pride Ananya Resort, located on VIP Road in Puri — one of the most well-connected stretches in the city, close to the famous Jagannath Temple and the shores of the Bay of Bengal.

Events & Occasions

The Pool Side venue is particularly well suited to social celebrations that benefit from an open, relaxed environment. Cocktail evenings, pre-wedding mehendi and sangeet functions, birthday parties, anniversary dinners, and informal corporate networking events all find a natural home here. The outdoor setting lends itself to décor themes that celebrate colour, flowers, and natural light — popular choices for destination weddings and milestone celebrations that draw guests from across India and beyond. For corporate groups, the poolside format encourages informal interaction and a departure from the conventional boardroom feel, making it a thoughtful choice for team outings, product launches, or evening socials attached to a larger conference programme held elsewhere on the property. The resort's experienced events team can coordinate setup, catering, and décor to meet the specific requirements of each occasion.

Location & Accessibility

Pride Ananya Resort sits on VIP Road in Puri, a city that draws pilgrims, tourists, and event guests year-round. Puri Railway Station connects the city directly to Bhubaneswar, Kolkata, and other major hubs, making it accessible for outstation guests travelling by rail. Bhubaneswar's Biju Patnaik International Airport serves as the nearest air gateway, with Puri lying approximately 60 kilometres to the south. The resort's position on VIP Road places it within easy reach of Puri Beach and the Jagannath Temple, two landmarks that add significant cultural and leisure appeal for guests combining an event with a longer stay. On-site accommodation at the resort means attending guests can be housed conveniently, reducing the logistical burden of coordinating transport for multi-day celebrations or destination events.
