There isn\u2019t an island on earth quite like Bali – and there\u2019s nothing quite like experiencing the festive season here – especially when you book your holiday in Bali with Karma! From December 23rd through January 4th, Karma Kandara in Bali celebrates its now iconic 12 Days of Karma – the biggest festive programme on the island. From top notch culinary offerings, international DJs and extravagant beach parties to family yoga classes and indulgent spa rituals here are 8 reasons to bring yourself (and family and friends) to celebrate Christmas in Bali this year…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
BE WILD<\/strong> EXPERIENCES OVER GIFTS<\/strong> SPA LIKE THERE\u2019S NO TOMORROW<\/strong> KEEP YOUR FAMILY FIT<\/strong>
Most of us feel better around nature – and that\u2019s something Bali has in spades! Iridescent rice terraces, soaring volcanoes, beaches lapped by the Indian Ocean. From mountain biking to trekking, white water rafting to cultural encounters – Bali has a myriad outdoor activities to offer. And Karma Kandara is home to one of the best beaches on the island – the award winning Karma Beach. Karma Jimbaran meanwhile is situated in Jimbaran Bay, famous for its fish markets and incredible sunsets. The ingredients for an unforgettable Bali holiday!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Does the focus on things over experiences get you down at Christmas? The relentless focus on consumption? You won\u2019t find that in Bali – another great reason to whisk your family away to paradise island, where it\u2019s all about experiences and connecting. And we can guarantee you\u2019ll all remember your Bali holiday long after the gifts have outlived their usefulness! \n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bali is regarded as the spa capital of the world and with good reason \u2013 Balinese therapists are simply the best at their craft, since massage and physical therapy is woven into the culture This year, we\u2019ve put together a host of incredible spa and holiday packages to keep you fit, rejuvenated and glowing from the inside and out – all curated by our highly trained therapists and teachers.
