Mawa Resort, Munshiganj

Mawa Resort is opened with the aim of offering holidays in this beautiful part of the country by the bank of the Padma River. The project started off as a family farm house dedicated to the fishing hobbies of the founder himself, Ret’d Inspector General of Police, Abul Qasem Howlader. Over the years the facilities on the site were developed for occasional use as a family weekend getaway place and also as a picnic spot. Eventually with suggestions from family friends and acquaintances, Mawa Resort has now been opened for everyone to enjoy this opportunity to come close to nature leaving behind the chaotic city life.

At Mawa Resort, you’ll find excellent entertainment and a wide range of high quality accommodation – all realistically priced to suit all pockets.
