Kamalaya, meaning ‘Lotus Realm’ in the ancient language of Sanskrit and representing the unfolding of the human spirit, was inspired by husband-and-wife founders, John and Karina Stewart. John, a devoted spiritual acolyte, public speaker, inspirational visionary and leader in the global wellness industry and Karina, Doctor of traditional Chinese medicine, an acclaimed speaker, author, innovator and a renowned authority on holistic health and wellbeing. Together, they conceived and developed Kamalaya as a profound expression of their life journeys and passion and pursuit of holistic healing, which opened in 2005 with a vast offering of wellness programs and experiences.
Helping people reconnect to their life’s potential and achieve optimal wellbeing, Kamalaya’s flexible and humanistic approach is aimed at accommodating each guest’s personal goals, whether that is to simply find a tranquil healing hideaway with contemporary comforts, or participate in a structured 3-, 5- or 7-day wellness program or inspiring retreat.
