Our stay at Sterling Karwar was quite enjoyable with stunning views of the Kali river and well-kept facilities. The rooms were clean and offered a beautiful outlook, while the staff were exceptionally helpful throughout our visit. However, we did face some minor inconveniences with the hot water supply and restricted access due to the non-functional lift. Overall, it's a nice place to relax and unwind, though certain food prices could be made more appealing.

I had a wonderful stay at Sterling Resort Karwar, which is located in a beautiful area overlooking the Kali River. The staff really stood out for their warmth and friendliness, making us feel right at home. The rooms were spacious and well-kept, offering stunning views from the higher floors. However, it's worth noting that this is not a beach property, which was initially a concern for me. Overall, it was a lovely experience that offered great value for a family getaway.
