Since 2011, the impressive portfolio includes the luxurious Karma Bavaria, the group's first European resort that fits perfectly into the picturesque landscape of the Bavarian Alps. During the warm season, Karma Bavaria offers
great hiking trails, refreshing dips and bike tours, while in winter, guests can enjoy sledding, a variety of winter sports and romantic horse-drawn sleigh rides. At the Karma Spa guests can unwind in the steam bath, sauna and whirlpool. The top-notch accommodations – from deluxe rooms and suites to apartments – are carefully designed to meet the guests’ high expectations. Led by head chef Dario Quinteros, the Karmasee Restaurant offers selected local products and, more recently, an Indian menu. The kitchen team was trained on-site by the Indian Karma head chef Jeevraj Singh from Rajasthan. Karma Bavaria is also the perfect location for memorable events and beautiful weddings.
However, Karma Group's commitment extends far beyond hospitality, aiming to give back to both guests and the global community. Karma Group sees it as their responsibility to combine luxurious experiences with sustainable impact, which is also reflected in their treatment of employees. Through initiatives like Karma Cares and Karma Refuge, the group is involved in global charity work and offers support for those in need - a tradition that has continued for nearly 30 years.
