    9. We are the proud member of Karma group since 2009.Have enjoyed the hospitality of Karma at so many properties.will like to specially mention the Karma Kandhara in Bali. And also Medhu fushi Iceland, Maldives, though it was not Karma property but was tie up through RCI. And how can I forget to mention Karma Chakra in Kerala, India. Goa is our prefered destination, whether Karma Royal Palm in Benaulim Or Hathi Mahal in South Goa.
      For me the highest plus point is very co-operative, courteous, ever smiling staff.
