In the ancient language of Sanskrit, Kamalaya translates as Lotus Realm symbolizing the unfolding of the human spirit. And founders Karina and John Stewart say that is exactly what happens when people arrive at their seaside Koh Samui retreat: unfold and in the process, return to themselves.
And no wonder, for almost 20 years now, Karina and John have been welcoming people from around the world to their wellness enclave. With a range of packages devoted to everything from detoxing to easing stress and burnout, they offer a range of clients willing to invest their time, money and energy a path forward to balance when they return to their daily lives.
Karina and John tell Livehealthy editorial director Ann Marie McQueen how they came to find their magnificent property – changing gears from the original location in Nepal – how they found each other (it involves a Himalayan master) and just what it is exactly that makes Kamalaya so special.
