But first up, here’s a wonderful photo we received from our recent Karma Community Quiz winners. For getting top marks on the Sustainable Gastronomy Trivia, Mr Welch won a health-themed food hamper and here’s what he had to say:

“The hamper arrived thank you, it’s great and there is so much! I’ve attached a picture of my boys, I’ve never seen them so excited about vegetables before – However that was short lived. As soon as they spotted the Smoothie box and the Raspberry/Rhubarb meringue pack, they soon forgot about the turnips”.

Karma Chateau de Samary – Carcassonne, France

“A wonderful stay in Karma Château de Samary!

At the beginning of June 2022, we went for a week – It was a nice surprise when we were welcomed by all the staff (Ed, Rafic and Angela), and so immediately we felt at home. We were given a tour of the château and the gardens with a large pool. Our room was beautifully decorated and very comfy.

Relaxing walks amongst the vineyards or bicycles (provided by Ed) took us to Le Canal Du Midi.  Every day we enjoyed our stay. On Sunday evening there was a complimentary BBQ for all the guests and a few glasses of very good local wine; it was very enjoyable and relaxing.

We had the pleasure of meeting several other members from different countries, including  Australia, Great Britain and France; most of them also stayed for a week, so it was a nice group.

It was one of the most enjoyable and relaxing holidays we had thanks to the friendly staff, and the beautiful Château – really this new acquisition of Karma’s as a whole is superb. It was our first visit but definitely not our last”

Karma Apsara – Koh Samui, Thailand

“We had booked a Member’s hot deal and on our arrival, we were offered a sea-facing two-bedroom apartment!

The hotel staff warmly welcomed us with a refreshing fruit juice and a wet face towel. The rooms were huge, well furnished, and spotlessly clean. The kitchen had all amenities included, we could cook dinner and breakfast easily.

The hotel location was great and the surrounding was lush green. The pool experience was great and we enjoyed the Happy Hours offer too! The hotel arranged sightseeing tours for us on request.

Overall, we had a memorable stay at Karma Apsara.”

Karma Munnar – Kerala, India

“There’s a reason why they call it God’s own country!

It was like the entire set-up was a personal canvas of some supernatural element. The hospitality was also nothing short of something offered to the Gods. Hussain Khwaja was the Concierge from Karma Group who suggested the property to us – and what a great suggestion!

The birthday surprise for my friend Nagaraj was organised duly by Reshma from the front office. Mr Praveen from marketing also ensured we had some unforgettable memories from that night.

Unfortunately, the following day my husband developed some health scare and Mr Rajesh (the General Manager) ensured that my husband got to see a doctor immediately and has kept in touch every day since we’ve been back home to Bangalore. The kitchen staff were excellent, we ate healthily and also exciting Keralan dishes.

The location chosen by Karma, as usual, was spectacular and I thoroughly enjoyed the holiday – feeling safe and cared for at every instant. I can’t stress enough how glad I am that I am a Karma member. It’s my good Karma I believe!”

Karma Lake of Menteith – Stirling, Scotland

“What can I say about a glorious week at Karma Lake of Menteith!!!

After almost 3 years, we got to catch up with my children at this magnificent location – which surpassed every expectation.

The Place, weather and staff, from the minute we arrived till we said “Seeya Later”,  were full of magic experiences. We were so well treated with happy faces and big smiles always – which were happy to help; suggesting places to see, and not to miss localities.

The food was superb and the bar with late drinks is not to miss! Very highly recommend a visit to this magical location,  well done John Spence for choosing it.

Thank you Karma, for adding these beautiful places for us to enjoy. We can’t wait to try the Nile cruise (my homeland) Karma Karnak!”

Karma Borgo di Colleoli – Tuscany, Italy

“Karma Borgo Di Colleoli is an oasis of relaxation with flowers, blue sky, birds singing and beautiful sunsets – Just the perfect environment to renew yourself, as it is out of the city traffic.

Everyone from the reception; to the breakfast with Rita and Sabrina; to the Italian dinner, are there to satisfy your needs – I spent 2 perfect weeks meeting people on the premise!

You may need a car if you want to visit nearby cities and beauties.”
