EIH signs pact with Luxmi Tea for luxury resort in Darjeeling

Kolkata, Dec 15 (UNI) EIH Limited, the flagship company of The Oberoi Group, has signed a management agreement with Luxmi Tea for a luxury resort at the iconic Makaibari Tea Estate in Darjeeling.
The project represents a significant milestone in the Group’s long-term strategy to curate exceptional hospitality experiences in the most extraordinary natural settings, an EIH media release said here today.
One of the world’s oldest and most storied tea estates, established in 1859, Makaibari is celebrated for its dramatic Himalayan vistas, lush primary forests and rare biodiversity. The 1,236 acres (500-hectare) estate includes one of the world’s oldest functioning tea factories - constructed entirely of wood, bamboo and cast iron, offering a rare view into living industrial heritage.
Recognised globally as the world’s first fully certified organic tea estate (1988), Makaibari has pioneered biodynamic and permaculture farming practices long before they became mainstream.
Set within this remarkable environment, the resort will feature 25 keys and is scheduled to open in 2030.
Rudra Chatterjee, Managing Director, Luxmi Tea Co Private Limited, said, “Makaibari is a living legacy shaped by nature, craftsmanship and community over 150 years. With its pristine forests, panoramic Himalayan views and rare biodiversity, it offers a setting that is truly exceptional." UNI SSP SS
