I had gone to Karma Chalets with my immediate bigger family. We had all ages in the group. This was my second visit to Karma Lakelands. In our last visit we had stayed at a luxury villa in Karma Lakelandss. This time we wanted to enjoy Karma Chalets which is a boutique hotel in Karma Lakelands. I even convinced my family members to stay in Karma Chalets. We had a one night and two days stay.
Entry to Karma Chalets at Karma Lakelands
Karma Chalets is in sector 80 Gurgaon. As soon as you enter the premises, green belt welcomes you embracing the clean vicinity and fresh air.
One could feel the cooler temperature which would be lesser by 1º-2ºC being green.
Greeery all around
As we crossed the way to chalets, we witnessed beautiful flowers, birds, butterflies, peacocks , deers, Neelgai, Francolin( Teetar in hindi) on the route. All of us were super excited to enter the area.

Karma Chalets are surrounded with greenery on the front and the back with beautiful interiors and all the modern amenities. In the front garden, there is a personal sit out space where a nice seating arrangement is provided along with swing.

All of us played squash. We must have spent hours and hours playing squash and table tennis.

Kids also played carrom board. There is a big walking chess by the restaurant – ‘Under The Neem‘ which kids played all the time while dining. There were hammocks laid around the green belt at different places. Kids also enjoyed trampoline. Swimming pool was another attraction.

Golf Course
There is an artificial lake surrounding the whole Golf Course. It is regularly cleaned. We took a round of the Golf Course and spotted deers, fox and a specific animal which appeared so healthy.

Peacocks were roaming around.

There is a poultry farm where cocks and hens are kept. Kids and even elder seniors spent a lot of time there.

I am going to put a separate video to showcase how much we all enjoyed there.
Rabbits are also there. My niece and younger son even touched them. There was a place for cattle. Bee farming was also being done there.

Bee Farming
We saw a unique concept where there were eco bricks used to create a shelter. What I observed was that the plastic bottles were stuffed densely with used wrappers and other plastic materials. Then they were laid with cement instead of bricks. I loved this idea.

I mean, can you imagine a Hospitality Organization to do so much for the nature as well as guests. Both the restaurants- ‘Under The Neem’ and ‘ On Kourse’ have a seasonal menu which gets its raw materials from organic farm products following the concept of ‘Farm To Table’. One can walk down the kitchen gardens and have a look at Papaya trees, cauliflower gardens, mint, coriander and so much more.
I must say a lot of planning and strategizing goes in ensuring eco friendliness. Till now they have planted trees over 2,00,00 trees. Bee farming is being done keeping in mind that bees are the best pollinators in the planet.
Day Care
Day care for staff members and for less privileged people in the surrounding areas is being taken care by the members and volunteers. To know more, please click check initiatives by Karma Lakelands
One must plan for two nights stay there. First day you will take to simply enjoy the premises along with all the activities. Younger kids can enjoy in the area dedicated to their activities.

Second day you can enjoy the nine hole Golf Course and its greenery and landscaping all around while enjoying view of wild animals. The third day, just sit back and relax in the sit outs doing nothing and simply gazing.
A highly recommended property for all ages. A must must experience- Karma Chalets
