Karma is extremely picturesque, the design and detail throughout the resort is outstanding. Staff are willing to help, and very attentive. Rooms are beautiful - we recommend booking one with a private plunge pool as this was the perfect place to cool off. Spa services were quite expensive, but there is a cheaper option for massages just in front of the pool. Pool itself was perfect, with comfy options for lounging and a great ambience set by the resorts constant music. Restaurant and breakfast was satisfactory, nothing crazy - but good. But the view and vibes from the restaurant was very relaxing. Overall, you definitely get what you pay for here.

Reality is different from pictures
Deluxe room with terrace was selected The terrace was completely useless as there was water from the rain everywhere When we informed the reception, they told us that it needed maintenance, and they asked us to change the room and asked us to pay more or to pay less, knowing that the problem was theirs. Also, the consultation takes five minutes and it stops working Breakfast was not good at all After paying for the massage, I asked for an additional amount because the person who did the massage changed to another type without informing me that there was a difference in the price, knowing that she does not speak English. Also, when asking the receptionist about the nearby places, she mentioned that there is nothing nearby, knowing that when requesting a taxi, he told us that we can walk to the fishermen’s village through the beach. Personally, I liked the decor taken from Indonesian culture But it needs a lot to make the stay comfortable

The hotel is beautiful and in a good location. We liked the breakfast options available. However, the room amenities are lacking. There are no drawers or shelves in the wardrobe. No hooks or make-up mirror in the bathroom. We would recommend pre-booking a sunbed.

I brought my family to Karma Resort for two weeks and we had the best time! The staff make you feel like you've stepped into a vacation with extended family. Everyone was gracious, accommodating as well as funny and relaxed. We enjoyed getting to know the staff among the beautiful setting. Incredible place right on the ocean, with a pool, spa, outdoor massages and great food. The resort is small in a great way. The bungalows are spacious and very zen as is the entire resort. We walked to the Fisherman's Market several times where you can find any kind of food and shopping. The beach walk is gorgeous. I highly, highly recommend this resort for you and your family!

The resort location was nice as the neighborhood was walkable and had a lot of great restaurants nearby. We also really enjoyed the pool and restaurant at Karma. The room itself, however, left a lot to be desired. It looks beautiful in the photos with the outdoor shower and rustic vibe, but in reality, the bathroom was quite gross. The only "window" in the bathroom was the door to the outdoor shower, which we had to keep closed out of concern for mosquitoes. Even then, the glass door for the outdoor shower did not have a gasket, so we had to keep the main bathroom door to the bedroom closed at all times to ensure that we did not get bugs in the bedroom. Because of this, the bathroom stayed very smelly and wet the entire time. Also, the indoor shower does not have any enclosures and the drain was very slow, so the entire bathroom floor stayed wet the entire time, including the area around the toilet and sink. It sounds like a small thing, but getting up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom and having wet/dirty feet every time felt really unsanitary. We were here for our honeymoon and had hoped for something more luxurious than this.

Beautiful resort but it is open for public use too
It is a beautiful resort and we did enjoy our stay very much but it does have some quite strong negatives too. We went away as a couple and as its a boutique hotel we were quite surprised by the amount of children there. Very noisy children. The biggest negative is that people can just come in and use the pool and sunbeds, which really should be for paying guests, therefore some days you come back after a day out and there is no room by the pool. The hotel bar and restaurant appears to be a club house for french visitors who are not staying at the hotel and they take over a large area of the pool area. We found quite often you are relaxing by the pool then suddenly big crowds arrive and the pool is suddenly full of unattended children and lots of toys. You couldnt get in even if you wanted to. We would go back to our room earlier than we would have liked just to get some peace. For such a small resort it seems unfair to the guests who have paid to stay to feel unwelcome by the pool. The rooms are superb and the shower was amazing. We liked having our own small pool to cool down especially, as sometimes it was our only option as there was no spaces by the main pool. The ladies on reception were so friendly and helpful as was the lovely lady in the restaurant. We enjoyed our holiday very much as you are near the fisherman's village and short cab rides to other great places on the island but I was disappointed by the lack of courtesy given to the residents in the hotel.

Perfect place for a long weekend get away
Everything about Karma Resort was absolutely fantastic. Super smooth check-in, staff were exceptional, delicious (and very instagramable) food and fantastic selection of French wines. Our room was large, clean and had all necessary amenities, along with a small private pool. The resort is the just right balance between cozy and luxurious and just the perfect place and ambiance for a long weekend get away.

Delightful
The resort is a delight. As you walk to your room you are surrounded by beautiful plants and fish ponds, while further into the resort the restaurant and infinity pool have a great view out over the sea. Everything about the decor has been carefully designed to make it relaxing and picture perfect. It is a bit of a walk along the beach to the Fisherman’s Village which could be challenging for another who is mobility impaired. But for anyone who loves a walk along the beach or a quiet break away in a relaxing environment, this place is wonderful.

Karma Resort er virkeligt et lækkert resort, vi boede i en af de store villaer, og nød det i fulde drag. Og servicen på stedet samt maden i restauranten - ja alt fungerer perfekt! Det eneste vi kan udsætte på resortet er at indgangsområdet endnu ikke er færdigt og indbydende. Men vi satser på det er færdigt når vi vender tilbage - for det er 100% sikkert

Best Resort in Koh Samui! The Karma Resort is a beautiful place to stay at. The Location is directly at the beach and close to Fishermans Village. It is super quiet but within 15 Minutes you can walk to Fishermans Village or take a taxi to Chaweng. The room has its very own and special design which makes you feel directly comfortable and cozy. The entire hotel has a boho-indonesian inspired style. Every single part is very beautiful and compared to other hotels unique. Before booking this hotel you should like these style of hotels because it will appear in every single room. The Food is amazing. There was not even one single dish or drink, which we did not like and enjoy. We prefered to eat here than outside. There are plenty of services which you can call for a very cheap price such as taxis and laundry. The best about this resort is their staff. Every single person is overwhelming friendly and helpful. No matter if you meet staff from the restaurant, reception, spa or housekeeping. They made our stay perfect! The reception is very well trained and competent. The Reception Ladies always try help us and were super committed. I had some of the best massages, while listening to the oceans waves, at the beach for a very fair price! The restaurant team is extraordinary! The always knew exactly what you need and made every single wish come true. If you stay in Koh Samui this would be the best resort to stay at.

Schönes , kleines Hotel mit kleinen Mängeln
Kleines ,architektonisch sehr schön angelegtes Hotel an einem sehr schönen Strandabschnitt von BoPhut. Bis zum Trubel nach Fishermans Village ca. 15 Minuten zu Fuß. Zimmer und Terrasse sind schön groß. Kleine Reparaturen wären fällig. Die Außendusche war einfach super. Personal war super freundlich und hilfsbereit. Essen war sehr gut. Die Cocktails waren unschlagbar. Da es ein öffentliches Restaurant ist, war es ab Mittag leider sehr voll und laut am Pool. Die Liegen werden auch an Gäste von außerhalb vergeben. Sehr beliebt bei Familien mit kleinen Kindern, die natürlich den Pool mitbenutzt haben. Also am Nachmittag Beachclubatmosphäre!
