Karma Kandara: Festive Season Paradise

Imagine waking up to the sound of gentle waves, the warm Bali sun streaming through your window, as you prepare for a day of festive indulgence. At Karma Kandara, perched on the stunning cliffs of Uluwatu, we’ve crafted a 12-day journey that embodies the very essence of a luxurious holiday escape.

Your adventure begins with an unforgettable Christmas Eve Dinner, where our chefs have prepared a feast that marries traditional holiday flavours with exotic Balinese cuisine. It’s just the beginning of a culinary journey that will tantalise your taste buds throughout your stay.

Each morning, greet the day with invigorating yoga sessions overlooking the Indian Ocean, or if you’re feeling energetic, join our Muay Thai classes. For those moments when relaxation calls, Karma Spa is ready to pamper you with special holiday treatments. 

We haven’t forgotten about the little ones either – the Three Monkeys Kids Club has a program brimming with festive crafts, games, and adventures that will keep them entertained and create lasting memories. The pinnacle of this year’s celebration is the New Year’s Eve Gala, where we’ll transport you to the eternal city of Rome. Immerse yourself in a night of captivating performances, savour gourmet Italian cuisine, and revel in entertainment that pays homage to ancient traditions. As the clock strikes midnight, raise a glass with your Karma family, toasting to new beginnings against the backdrop of Bali’s starlit sky.

For a tranquil Scottish retreat, Karma Lake of Menteith offers a peaceful haven. Here, you can celebrate Hogmanay in true Scottish style with world class whiskies, fine wines and the award-winning cuisine of chef Joe Peden, as well as  enjoying serene walks along the lakeshore or the Trossachs countryside, taking in the crisp Winter air and stunning natural beauty.
