Reliable Underwater Lighting for Courtyard by Marriott

Project Overview

Courtyard by Marriott Aravalli Resort in North India required a premium underwater and landscape lighting solution to complement its expansive pools, decorative water features, and lush green surroundings. The challenge was to ensure long-term reliability in a region known for extreme heat, high humidity, and seasonal monsoons.

The Challenge

India’s diverse climate makes outdoor and underwater lighting projects highly demanding. Lighting products must withstand hot summers, heavy monsoon rains, and in coastal areas, marine-grade conditions. For a hospitality project, the requirements go beyond durability—lighting must also enhance the guest experience while reducing maintenance needs.

Key project requirements included:

• Durable underwater lighting for pools and water features
• Resistance to humidity, heat, and corrosion
• High-quality design to match the hotel’s architecture
• Long service life with minimal maintenance
• Professional support and safe installation

The Solution

Unilamp collaborated with Clout Edge Technologies, its long-term sales partner in India, to deliver a complete solution. The installation featured underwater luminaires designed and tested for demanding environments.

Highlights of the solution:

• Marine-grade stainless steel housing with supreme corrosion resistance
• Watertight glands and air-pressure valves to prevent water ingress
• IP68 protection for maximum safety against water and dust
• Submerge-tested luminaires for proven reliability
• Direct technical support from Unilamp’s sales, product development, and factory teams
• Professional on-site installation by Clout Edge to ensure safe practices and smooth installation.

The Results

The project was completed with outstanding success. Guests at Courtyard by Marriott now enjoy impressive lighting effects in the pools and landscaped areas, while the hotel benefits from reliable, low-maintenance performance.

Over more than eight years of partnership, Clout Edge has promoted Unilamp’s underwater products in India without a single product failure—a rare achievement for underwater applications.

“The underwater products of Unilamp have become one of the strengths of our company. We have been promoting them for almost eight years and we have not received a single complaint. Normally underwater products fail after a couple of years but Unilamp fixtures have performed flawlessly in swimming pools, water bodies, and marine-grade applications.”
