The entire experience was out of this world. Views to die for, so welcoming and private. The room was absolutely immaculate with outstanding facilities. There is nothing they hadn't thought of. If you love walking, swimming and tranquillity, this is the holiday for you. Great food and wine and the breakfast is exceptional. Everything was so magical, this has been our best holiday ever. Karma has the most beautiful vibe. A truly unforgettable experience.

Beautiful location, friendly staff, just slightly let down by the constant undercurrent of ‘join the Karma club’ aka timeshare. Posters, leaflets, letters in the room and that was after I had explicitly asked not to be sold to as I was paying to have a holiday.

Disappointing stay
Disappointing stay - Karma did not offer any cleaning during our 3 night stay. This was the only hotel that did this during our week in the Isles of Scilly. The overall cleaning and COVID measures were disappointing with a lack of accessible/working hand sanitising stations. To finish on a positive the young staff were cheerful and always willing to help - they are a great plus to the hotel.

I can not say enough positive things about Karma! The staff were so friendly and accommodating... the best I have ever dealt with quite honestly. The food was fantastic, which can be difficult to pull off on an isolated island I am sure, but they did it. Consistently.
