A resort where the edge of the Gir forest becomes your event backdrop, Woods At Sasan sits within the wildlife buffer zone of Sasan Gir, Gujarat — one of the few hospitality properties in India with direct proximity to the last wild habitat of the Asiatic lion. Opened as a nature-forward retreat, the property draws corporate groups, intimate weddings, and wildlife-themed incentive programmes seeking an immersive alternative to conventional banquet halls. Its rare positioning inside a protected landscape gives every gathering a sense of occasion that no urban convention centre can replicate.
The resort's event infrastructure is designed to work with the natural terrain rather than against it. An open-air lawn area accommodates up to 350 guests in a floating or cocktail arrangement, making it the primary canvas for large format functions such as destination weddings, sundowner corporate evenings, and gala dinners lit by the forest canopy overhead. A covered banquet space handles smaller conferences and breakout sessions in theatre or classroom-style configurations, sheltering delegates from Gujarat's seasonal weather shifts. Pre-function areas transition smoothly between the indoor and outdoor zones, reducing turnaround time between ceremony and reception setups. This venue for destination events in Sasan Gir handles end-to-end arrangement through an in-house coordination team.
Destination weddings and MICE offsites are the two primary event formats the property serves, and the experience differs meaningfully between them. Wedding parties occupy the lawn for multi-day celebrations — sangeet, haldi, and reception in succession — with tribal and regional décor themes that align with the Gir landscape. Corporate groups on wildlife incentive retreats use the property as an experiential base: morning safaris into Gir National Park, afternoon strategy sessions in the covered hall, and evening bonfire networking. In-house catering covers Gujarati vegetarian cuisine with multi-cuisine options; the resort follows local excise regulations, so alcohol permissions are event-specific and planners should confirm this at the RFP stage. Groups requiring five-star banquet infrastructure will find the facility purposefully rustic rather than metropolitan.
Reaching Woods At Sasan requires planning that urban venues do not. Sasan Gir is approximately 65 kilometres from Junagadh and roughly 170 kilometres from Rajkot Airport, which handles commercial flights — Diu Airport is closer at around 100 kilometres. Guest accommodation is available on-site across jungle-themed cottages and rooms, eliminating the logistical gap between sleeping and event spaces that typically affects outstation programmes. Onsite parking supports private coach transfers, the standard arrival mode for group movements of this scale. For planners managing 150-to-350-person groups, the self-contained nature of the property — rooms, dining, event lawn, and safari access all within one boundary — significantly simplifies vendor coordination and delegate experience management.
Woods At Sasan is listed on Spalba with verified capacity details, space configurations, and direct enquiry tools that allow planners to submit an RFP without an intermediary. For corporate offsites seeking a measurable departure from conference-room fatigue, or for families planning a destination wedding anchored in Gujarat's wilderness, the property's availability calendar and contact details are accessible from the Spalba listing. Reviewing confirmed floor layouts and accommodation counts on the listing before a site visit helps narrow the shortlist efficiently and keeps the planning timeline on track.

The property suits events ranging from small corporate retreats to destination weddings, with setups configurable across its indoor banquet area and open-air lawn. Planners can submit a headcount via the Spalba enquiry form to receive a layout recommendation.
The resort features open-air lawn space set against the natural forest backdrop of Gir, making it well suited for al fresco dining, cocktail evenings, and wedding functions. Outdoor setups are subject to seasonal weather conditions, particularly during the monsoon closure period when the resort and Gir National Park are typically not operational. Confirming dates in advance through Spalba is strongly advised.
The resort can configure its indoor banquet hall alongside its outdoor lawn area to support multi-function celebrations such as mehendi, sangeet, and wedding reception across consecutive days. This makes Woods At Sasan a practical destination resort for groups seeking a self-contained venue within the Sasan Gir wildlife corridor. Enquire on Spalba for a combined layout proposal specific to your guest count.
Woods At Sasan operates an in-house kitchen serving multi-cuisine menus with a strong emphasis on Gujarati and Indian fare. As a destination jungle resort, in-house catering is the primary model for events, ensuring consistency across large group meals. Vegetarian and Jain meal options are available on request. Planners should discuss custom banquet menus directly through the Spalba enquiry channel for event-specific packages.
The resort supports basic audio-visual requirements for corporate retreats and small conferences, including projection and sound systems. Given its positioning as a nature and wildlife resort, heavy MICE infrastructure is supplemented by external vendor coordination when required. Planners organising conferences or product launches in Sasan Gir should confirm specific AV requirements via Spalba to allow the property to arrange third-party technical support.
Woods At Sasan offers on-property accommodation in rooms and cottages designed to reflect the surrounding forest environment of Gir. The resort functions as a stay-and-celebrate destination, making it suitable for outstation guests attending weddings or corporate off-sites. Exact room inventory and suite availability should be confirmed directly through the Spalba listing to check live occupancy for your event dates.
Woods At Sasan is located in Sasan Gir, a wildlife destination resort zone in the Junagadh district of Gujarat. The nearest airport is Rajkot Airport, approximately 160 kilometres away, while Junagadh Railway Station is roughly 60 kilometres from the property. Planners coordinating group travel for destination events should factor in ground transfer arrangements. Spalba listings include location details to help planners brief outstation attendees.
The resort accommodates guest vehicles within its property premises, as is standard for a standalone jungle resort in Sasan Gir. Self-parking is available for guests driving from Junagadh, Rajkot, or Ahmedabad. Given the resort's location away from urban infrastructure, most event guest groups arrive via organised road transfers. Confirming parking capacity for large convoys is recommended through the Spalba enquiry form.
Accessibility features at Woods At Sasan should be confirmed directly with the property, as resort terrain in forested zones can include uneven ground and naturalistic pathways. Planners with differently-abled guests in their group are advised to raise specific mobility and accessibility requirements when submitting an enquiry via Spalba, allowing the resort team to advise on suitable accommodation allocation and event space access.
Woods At Sasan is a sought-after destination resort venue for weddings and corporate off-sites in the Sasan Gir region, with limited room inventory that books quickly during peak season from October to March. Booking 4 to 6 months in advance is strongly advisable for wedding dates, and 2 to 3 months ahead for corporate group bookings. Planners can submit a date-hold enquiry directly through the Spalba listing page.
The prime event and stay season at Woods At Sasan runs from mid-October to mid-June, aligned with the operational window of Gir National Park. The resort typically observes a monsoon closure from approximately mid-June to mid-October each year when the park is shut to visitors. Planners should avoid scheduling events outside this window and verify current season dates through the Spalba enquiry system.
Cancellation and rescheduling terms at Woods At Sasan are governed by the property's booking agreement and may vary based on event size, advance booking period, and the amount of the deposit paid. As policies are not uniformly published, planners are advised to request the written cancellation terms as part of the initial booking discussion. The Spalba enquiry platform provides a direct channel to obtain this information from the property.

The resort is well suited for corporate off-site retreats, leadership programmes, and team-building events that benefit from a secluded natural environment away from urban distractions. Its forest setting within the Sasan Gir corridor adds a unique experiential element, including proximity to Gir safari experiences that can be integrated into group itineraries. Spalba allows corporate bookers to submit group size, duration, and requirement details in a single enquiry.
Corporate clients booking events at Woods At Sasan should confirm GST billing and tax invoice requirements at the time of enquiry, as compliance practices vary by property.
