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.

Fantastic location but slow service at breakfast
The location and housekeeping could not be faulted. The service in the restaurant for breakfast was VERY slow so we decided not to eat our evening meals there as there were other options on the island. Overall what could be a fantastic hotel is let down by the slow service.

Beautiful Location
The hotel has a beautiful situation and clearly aims for a high standard. However, I don't think the standard achieved, good as it is, justifies the price. In particular watch out for the very small measures issuing from the 'automatic wine dispenser', which are far smaller than normal measures
