Collaboration<\/strong> is our pandemic response to be inclusive and make a global presence for brands with a similar ethos. With Secret Retreats \u2013 also a hospitality collective; the idea was to create opportunities for both of us and this we did by promoting each other\u2019s brands to the markets we both were proficient in. It helped that at heart both Secret Retreats and RARE India believed in superb storytelling and focused on design and curations that drew from the character of the owner-hotelier. Every owner\u2019s individual belief that placed the health of the planet and the benefit of the people is a basic principle that resonated through both RARE India and Secret Retreats. With the Eight hotels we share, our narratives spotlight authentic experiences, best practises in sustainable operations and create value for unique concepts and destinations that appeal to discerning travellers. Simply put, together we hold our hotels in a hearty embrace and tell their story to the whole wide world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is imperative to us that experiences we share with travellers are valid in a modern context, that they are genuinely important to the community and not merely a contrived broadcast, a soulless means to an end. To the teams at RARE India and Secret Retreats it is vitally important that our communities\u2019 cultural identities<\/strong> survive and remain relevant. With our newsletters and media stories we continue to strive to do our bit to prevent the homogenization of this beautiful world so that we celebrate tradition and diversity. This for those who follow us is the very essence of mindful and transformative travel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
