I have travelled to many resorts in my lifetime, but the quality of service, maintenance that we get to see in Karma properties are par excellence! We stayed here for 8 nights with our family. The quality of food served at the restaurants are absolutely awesome. Actually we didnt explore much of outside food because at the restaurant, the Chef Pardosh made anything that we wanted to eat. The staff in the restaurant Joys, Lal, Reshmi, Dantes always smiling to serve anything with most promptness. At the front desk Divya and Liju were fantastic host, they took care of everything to make this trip memorable. Even the GM Rakesh was always approachable and could be seen in the property roaming to ensure everything is impeccable. I would definitely want to go back to this property for its warmth and wonderful service. thanks everyone…

Beautiful location overlooking the lake from most rooms, the big infinity pool and the terrace of the restaurant. It all breathes serenity, tranquility and space. The food and service in the restaurant were excellent. Our 'European stomachs' cannot handle all Indian cuisine, so all the staff took extra good care of us to keep us safe:) We enjoyed both the continental/English and local breakfasts, drank lots of tea just to enjoy the view from the terrace and in the evening we always had the chef's specials to taste a piece of all of India. We did miss a glass of wine with our dinner (no alcoholic beverages), and the bar was still closed due to covid, which was a pity because the bar looked great. We had 2 very nice spa treatments. First we were disappointed they only do Ayuverdic treatments (not our favorite), but the spa was clean and comfortable, so we booked a massage and steam bath. Staff was very capable and friendly. We hired the beautifully authentic houseboat for a trip on the lake one afternoon. Food and drinks were included, although we payed extra for the fish that we bought at a fish shop located in the middle of the lake and the cook prepared for us. It was a nice way to take a peep at life at the waterfront. Thanks to all the staff at Karma Chakra, who were very friendly and absolutely keen to make their guests happy!…

I stayed at the Karma Chakra in June 2022. The rooms were spacious and clean. The views of the lake were serene and peaceful, and the staff went out of their way to make our holiday a memorable one. The staff at the front office were responsive to all our needs with a smile. I am especially appreciative of Joys, Arun and Dantes at The Waterside resaturant, who were attentive and recommended wonderful local delicacies that enriched our Kerala experience. They even prepared some dishes that were not included in the menu for the day . Those dishes had such beautiful clean flavours that I will always crave for more. We also had 2 spa days. Anu and Sujith at the spa recommended treatments as per our needs and also stayed back late to accomodate us. Karma Chakra is one of the best Karma resorts I have visited mainly due to the service and hospitality of the staff .…

We are RCI members and were introduced to this lovely property. The landscaping, rooms,itself is refreshingly open. Large rooms welcome the guests with private balconies. Good Spa arrangements with qualified staff to rejuvenate the mind and soul. Best part is the courteous staff who have more than a smile to offer. Very caring. Food is really delicious with a good choice of local cuisine. Last but not least.. They have a lovely clean swimming pool... Thoroughly enjoyed.
