Located a mere 5 minute walk from the airport, the internet cafe and the beach, Kariwak is truly an oasis in the lively Crown Point area. Conceived and constructed by the owners/managers in the early eighties, Kariwak is a family run establishment with a reputation for its unassuming "hippy-chic" flair.
It has carved a distinctive niche with its holistic approach to holidays that soothe the body, mind and the spirit. Intimate accommodation, exquisite food, revitalising massage treatments, lush tropical gardens dominated by the thatched roof ajoupa...the venue for tai chi, yoga and meditation.
