Karma Lakelands, a leading eco-friendly resort in Delhi, is furthering its commitment to sustainability by adopting Spalba’s innovative digital tools. This partnership brings together the best of green hospitality and technology, enhancing the event planning process and providing clients with a unique and immersive venue experience.

With the help of Spalba’s technology, including 3D walkthroughs and digital twins, Karma Lakelands can now showcase its venues remotely. This reduces the need for in-person visits, cutting down on carbon emissions. The digital solutions also streamline bookings, shorten the time it takes to close deals, and enable quick remote reservations. These tools provide clients with a virtual tour of the property, allowing them to experience the venue’s offerings before making any commitments, all while supporting an eco-friendly event experience.

Akash Roy Saigal, General Manager at Karma Lakelands, shared his thoughts on the collaboration: “At Karma Lakelands, we’re always looking for ways to work better and provide great client experiences. Working with Spalba has changed how we plan events. We now use virtual walkthroughs and 3D setups, which help us show off our property in a whole new way. This change has made our operations smoother and boosted our sales conversions by 50%, letting us highlight what our space can do like never before.”

The collaboration also resonates with Spalba’s founder, Naveen Gupta, who believes the company’s values align perfectly with Karma Lakelands’ green initiatives. He commented, “Our digital tools at Spalba allow hotels to present their venues in an engaging and eco-friendly way. We help reduce their environmental footprint, increase their online presence, and create more opportunities for cross-selling.”

Karma Lakelands, known for its picturesque eco-friendly homes and top-tier golf course, is setting a new benchmark in the hospitality industry by adopting these digital tools. By integrating sustainable practices into their event planning, the resort is not only enhancing client engagement but also expanding its reach to a wider audience through online tours and digital experiences.
