I was apprehensive when I booked this govt run resort, but was pleasantly surprised with the resort facilities. Very beautiful resort with water park and nice lake for boating. Rooms were spacious and facilities decent. Drawback definitely is the restaurant service. They don't provide room service and service at restaurant is also average.Food was decent!! Recommended to people who want... More

We have visited this newly renovated water park. Last Sunday and Enjoyed! Important: 1. Water is not as much clear. 2. Always wear Swimming t-shirt else your body will burn after taking rides. 3. Not very much crowd so you will enjoy. 4. Timings are 11:00 AM to 5:30 PM 5. Rides are less but for a small fun it... More

The perfect place to relax and unwind. We visited in March 2012. All we did was just relax sitting in the veranda and enjoy the cool breeze and listen to the birds chirping. At times we would spot a rare looking bird flying in the garden ahead or a squirrel coming close and playing. The resort is huge and has... More

We decided to take a break during Christmas Holidays but did not want to go to a very commercial place. Karla was chosen as it was close to Mumbai and had good coonectivity by road. This a typical MTDC Resort with all the postives and negatives which go with it. The postives are the location itself and the spacious rooms.... More

It was the start of summer vacation and we wanted to spend the weekend at a place which was far from the hustle and bustle of Lonavala and still not very far.. MTDC Karla is an ideal place for this.You need to take the Lonavala exit of the expressway then take the old Mumbai Pune Highway toward Pune and take... More

stayed at karla for 3 days . two suites . good location . Efficiency: they ready the room 'after' you arrive and they clean the rooms 'if' you tell them . supervise and demand and the cleaning gets better. no! tipping is of no use since the staff considers laziness and tips as their fundamental right. so we got two...

Nice location, completly surrounded by trees and close to the river! Decent parking space availability. Canteen food is average. Rooms very not very clean, surprisingly bathrooms were very neat! Beds were not good so sleep quality was poor. Sheets ans blankets asked for more cleanliness! The aluminium roofs made a whole lot of noise during rains! But the room was... More
