According to TOI, Tourist spots in the state are showing an encouraging picture in terms of guest arrivals despite the pandemic. Maharashtra Tourism Development Corporation (MTDC) officials said all its resorts at popular destinations, like Ganpati- pule, Karla, Mahabaleshwar and Matheran, are 100% booked during the Christmas weekend as well as on New Year’s Eve.
However, hotels in various cities in Maharashtra are reporting minimal occupancy during the upcoming Christmas and New Year period.
Dinesh Kamble, General Manager of MTDC, said, “Our resorts at most locations in the state are fully booked for Christmas and New Year. Bookings began picking up from November and currently online slots are full for many MTDC hotels during the long Christmas weekend. Even resorts are cent per cent booked over the weekends.” (Source: TOI)
