Accommodation description
Jetwing Vil Uyana is situated among reed beds and paddy fields and over the first man-made lake since the era of Parakramabahu I. Situated in the shadow of the historic rock fortress of Sigiriya, is what Harper’s Bazaar calls the Best Eco Luxury Hotel in Sri Lanka. It was inspired by the habitat creation at the London Wetland Centre by the Wildfowl and Wetland Trust.
In a groundbreaking project Jetwing Hotels created a private nature reserve consisting of a wetland system with lakes and reed beds. Jetwing Vil Uyana was built within these environs with rooms which have been placed within the paddy fields itself. This exciting lifestyle hotel thereby created a unique approach to eco-living. Relax in an atmosphere of rural simplicity combined with the lavish comforts of the present day to experience a stay hard to forget.
Located in the heart of Sri Lanka's Cultural Triangle, Jetwing Vil Uyana is just 5km away from the rock fortress of Sigiriya which is also considered to be the 8th Wonder of the World.
Jetwing Vil Uyana combines rustic charms, modern comforts and an authentic glimpse of culture and tradition all rolled into one. It is within easy reach of a number of Sri Lanka’s cultural and historical hotspots. The Dambulla Rock Temple complex which dates back to the 1st century BC, is a world heritage site which should not be missed. Further north are the ancient capitals of Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa which were ruled by dynasties of kings and kingdoms. Likewise the hotel is surrounded by spectacular natural beauty.
