Conceptualized in the wake of the 26/11 attacks, the resort blends patriotism, discipline, and indulgence into an immersive experience that pays tribute to the armed forces. With ex-commandos leading authentic survival and counter-terrorism training for civilians, D.A‘T.A. goes beyond leisure to offer guests a transformative journey that builds resilience, leadership, and purpose — redefining what luxury truly means.

Della D.A.T.A. Resort, launched in 2018, is India’s first and only military-themed luxury glamping destination, making it a truly unique concept in the country. Born out of Jimmy Mistry’s desire to pay tribute to the armed forces after the 26/11 attacks, the resort was designed to combine patriotism, discipline, and world-class hospitality in one immersive experience. Guests don'tjust stay in luxury tents; they live the values of honor, resilience, and preparedness through experiences like Counter-Terrorism Training programs for civilians, making D.A‘T.A. far more than a traditional resort.
