The Kashti Ballroom is the flagship indoor event space at The Westin Goa, a five-star resort property set in Dmello Vaddo, Anjuna — one of North Goa's most sought-after coastal destinations. The name "Kashti," meaning boat in Hindi and Urdu, is a nod to Goa's deep-rooted maritime heritage, and this sensibility is woven into the ballroom's design: the space carries a character that feels simultaneously rooted in local culture and polished to an international hospitality standard. High ceilings, warm ambient lighting, and a refined contemporary finish make the Kashti Ballroom a versatile canvas suited to a wide range of celebrations and gatherings.
The ballroom is equipped to support both large-scale social events and formal corporate functions. Its layout can be configured in multiple arrangements — theatre, banquet, cocktail, or classroom — giving event planners meaningful flexibility to shape the space around their specific programme. Pre-function space is available adjacent to the ballroom, providing room for registration desks, cocktail receptions, or break-out areas that extend the event experience without crowding the main hall.
The Kashti Ballroom is a natural fit for weddings and wedding-adjacent celebrations such as mehendi, sangeet, and reception dinners — occasions where Goa's festive atmosphere and the Westin brand's hospitality infrastructure combine to create a memorable experience. The resort setting means guests can transition seamlessly between the ballroom and the property's outdoor spaces, making it equally attractive for hybrid indoor-outdoor event programmes.
Corporate events are well served here too. The ballroom's AV capabilities, controlled lighting, and air-conditioned environment make it appropriate for conferences, product launches, leadership conclaves, and gala dinners. The Westin Goa's event services team works alongside planners to coordinate catering, décor, and technical requirements under one roof — a practical advantage for organisers managing complex event logistics.
Social celebrations — milestone birthdays, anniversary galas, and reunion dinners — are another strong use case. Goa's year-round appeal as a leisure destination means guests travelling from other cities often extend their stay, and the property's on-site accommodation makes the Kashti Ballroom a compelling choice for multi-day event programmes that blend celebration with hospitality.
The Westin Goa sits in Anjuna, a neighbourhood on the North Goa coastline historically known for its bohemian energy and now firmly established as a premium hospitality corridor. The property's Dmello Vaddo address places it close to the beaches and nightlife of North Goa while remaining within a manageable distance of Goa International Airport at Dabolim and the newer Manohar International Airport in North Goa. The resort's location along this corridor also means that attendees arriving from Panaji, Calangute, or Baga can reach the venue without difficulty.
For destination event planners, the Anjuna address is a genuine asset: guests associate the area with leisure, and the surrounding landscape of Goa provides a ready-made backdrop for pre- and post-event excursions. The Westin Goa's in-house concierge and events teams are positioned to support group travel logistics, making the Kashti Ballroom not just an event space but a full-service destination venue.

Its configurable layout and professional AV infrastructure make it adaptable for both formal and festive occasions. Specific setup requirements can be discussed with The Westin Goa's events team.
Capacity varies depending on the seating configuration chosen — banquet rounds, theatre-style, classroom, or cocktail standing — and the specific layout of the event. Prospective clients are encouraged to contact The Westin Goa's events team directly with their guest count and preferred setup for an accurate capacity confirmation.
Yes, the Kashti Ballroom is a fully air-conditioned indoor event space, making it a reliable choice throughout Goa's warm and humid months. This is particularly valuable for events held during Goa's pre-monsoon and summer season when outdoor venues can be uncomfortable.
The name Kashti means 'boat' in Hindi and Urdu, reflecting Goa's rich maritime history and coastal culture. This naming choice is part of The Westin Goa's broader design philosophy of connecting the property to its Goan surroundings while delivering an internationally recognised hospitality standard.
Yes, pre-function space is available adjacent to the Kashti Ballroom and can be used for guest registration, cocktail receptions, or break-out networking areas. This allows the main ballroom to remain set for the primary event while supporting programming that takes place before or between sessions.
The ballroom supports multiple seating and layout configurations, including banquet rounds for wedding dinners, theatre-style rows for conferences, and open cocktail arrangements for receptions or product launches. The Westin Goa's events team assists planners in selecting the configuration that best suits their programme and guest count.
As a five-star Westin property, The Westin Goa has its own in-house food and beverage team that typically manages catering for events held on the premises. Menus, dietary requirements, and beverage packages should be discussed directly with the hotel's catering and events coordinator to understand the full scope of options available.
Policies on third-party décor vendors can vary by event type and agreement. Couples and corporate planners are advised to raise this directly with the events team at The Westin Goa, who can clarify what is permitted, what the property provides in-house, and any conditions that apply to external suppliers.
The Kashti Ballroom is equipped with AV infrastructure to support presentations, live sound, and event programming. For specific technical requirements — such as LED walls, simultaneous translation, or broadcast-quality setups — it is best to share a detailed brief with the hotel's events team so they can confirm availability or recommend solutions.
The Westin Goa is a resort property in Anjuna with on-site parking available for guests. For large events where a significant number of vehicles are expected, it is advisable to coordinate with the hotel in advance so parking logistics and any valet arrangements can be planned accordingly.
The Westin Goa is located in Dmello Vaddo, Anjuna, in North Goa, and is accessible from both Goa International Airport at Dabolim in South Goa and the newer Manohar International Airport serving North Goa. The travel time from each airport depends on traffic and the route taken; guests and event planners should factor in road conditions, particularly during peak tourist season.
The Westin Goa is a full-service resort hotel, so accommodation is available on-site for event guests. This makes the Kashti Ballroom particularly well suited to destination weddings and corporate retreats where attendees are travelling from out of town and prefer to stay at the venue property. Room block arrangements for groups can be discussed with the hotel's reservations or events team.
The Westin Goa's resort layout allows events to incorporate both indoor and outdoor spaces, which is a common format for destination weddings and large social celebrations in Goa. Planners interested in a hybrid indoor-outdoor programme should discuss the available combination options with the events team to understand what pairings and transitions are operationally supported.
Goa's peak event season generally runs from October through March, when the weather is dry and temperatures are comfortable — conditions well suited to destination weddings and corporate gatherings. The Kashti Ballroom's fully air-conditioned environment does make it usable year-round, though availability during peak season fills up quickly and early booking is advisable.
Enquiries about availability, pricing, and event packages for the Kashti Ballroom can be submitted directly through The Westin Goa's official website at marriott.com or by contacting the hotel's events and catering team by phone or email. Providing details such as the event date, estimated guest count, and type of occasion will help the team respond with an accurate and tailored proposal.
