About Anandam - The Banquet Hall
The Space
Anandam — The Banquet Hall is the dedicated event space at Sarasiruham Resort, a private pool villa property set in the serene surroundings of Eklingji, Rajasthan. The name "Anandam" translates to bliss or joy in Sanskrit, and the hall carries that spirit into its design and atmosphere — a space that feels celebratory yet grounded in the calm, heritage-inflected character of the resort. Sarasiruham itself is styled as a boutique private retreat, which means events held at Anandam benefit from an intimacy and exclusivity rarely found at larger, more commercial banquet venues. The hall is suited to gatherings that call for a personal touch alongside thoughtful hospitality.
The architecture and interiors draw from the broader aesthetic of the resort — warm tones, regional design sensibilities, and a setting that nods to the cultural richness of Rajasthan. Whether the preferred setup is a formal sit-down arrangement or a more relaxed open gathering, the hall can be configured to suit the occasion. The surrounding resort grounds, which include private pool villas, also extend the event experience beyond the four walls of the banquet hall itself, giving hosts and guests a cohesive and beautiful environment to move through.
Events & Occasions
Anandam - The Banquet Hall is well suited to intimate weddings, pre- and post-wedding ceremonies such as mehendi, sangeet, and engagement functions, as well as private social celebrations including milestone birthdays and anniversary dinners. The boutique scale of the resort makes it a natural fit for families and groups seeking privacy and a personalised experience rather than a large, convention-style setting. Corporate retreats, small leadership off-sites, and private business gatherings are equally at home here, particularly for organisations looking to combine productive meeting time with a resort escape.
Eklingji itself carries strong cultural significance — it is known for the ancient Eklingji Temple, a celebrated Shiva temple that has been a place of pilgrimage and royal devotion for centuries. This heritage-rich setting adds meaning and atmosphere to weddings and ceremonies in particular, making Anandam a choice with genuine sense of place for couples who want their celebration rooted in Rajasthani culture and landscape.
Location & Accessibility
Sarasiruham Resort is located in Eklingji, approximately 22 kilometres from Udaipur city centre — a drive that typically takes under an hour depending on conditions, placing the resort within comfortable reach of Maharana Pratap Airport in Udaipur. Eklingji sits along the NH-48 corridor connecting Udaipur to Nathdwara and Ajmer, making it reasonably accessible for guests travelling from across Rajasthan and beyond. The location offers the tranquillity of a rural Rajasthani setting without requiring long-haul travel from Udaipur, which remains the nearest major city for flight connections, rail access, and accommodation overflow. For event planners, this balance — scenic seclusion paired with practical accessibility — makes Anandam a compelling venue choice for destination celebrations.
