Jetwing Vil Uyana, A Luxury Reserve

Very quite and excellent.

El hotel es un lodge rodeado de naturaleza, donde lo único que se escucha, salvo que haya organizado algún espectáculo de danza local, es a los animales (muchos y muy activos al amanecer) y el crujido de los árboles. Las instalaciones son rústicas, pero bonitas y cómodas. Objeción: incurre en la manía actual de integrar el cuarto de baño en la habitación, sin puerta de ninguna clase, y sin avisarlo previamente en su descripción de la habitación. Le quito una estrella por eso, porque para mí es disuasorio a la hora de elegir alojamiento. El restaurante es buenísimo y los productos de ducha, también.

Amazing wildlife ,impressive accommodations

This was our first stop in Sri Lanka and it was magical. Beautiful grounds, wonderful staff, lovely food. We had an overwater room that was a serene place to end our busy days. Our butler Ravi and our guide Yesitha were standouts but the entire staff was amazing. We had great spa treatment as well. We highly recommend this location in the Cultural Triangle...and Sri Lanka itself is a must visit!

Beautiful, one of the most pleasant and peaceful accommodations I’ve ever stayed in.

Had a fantastic time at the Jetwing Vil Uyana, the accommodation was excellent and the staff could not have done more for us. The hotel is in a secluded location, in a managed jungle setting with abundant wildlife and is within easy reach by taxi of Dambulla and Sigiriya. The food was excellent and served in a picturesque dining area overlooking the lake. We had an extremely relaxing three nights and would thoroughly recommend the hotel to others.

No written review can do justice to the wonderful time we spent here. We stayed in a forest dwelling with pool, and it exceeded our already high expectations. The downstairs open bathroom was large and amazing. The bedroom was very spacious, comfortable and had all the facilities we could want, including coffee machine and safe. Two balconies, and a large picture window overlooked our private pool, trees and the lake beyond. Our housekeeper was great and produced some wonderful towel sculptures and bed decorations each night. Breakfasts and dinners were delicious and plentiful. Service at the restaurant and bar was quietly efficient and friendly. We had a couple’s 90 minute massage: I had a Balinese massage whereas my wife had a combination of 4 different types. These were probably the best massages we have had. Our first evening we went with Thisara the naturalist to look for Slender Loris and saw four - very good sightings and amazing to watch. The next morning we went on a birding walk with the other naturalist Yesitha which was also excellent, and on the way back we saw and watched a troop of Grey Langurs. Our final afternoon we went on a safari with Yesitha around Hurulu Eco Park. Fantastic close sightings of elephants as well as more birds. The naturalists were great and the Loris Conservation Project is amazing and deserves support! All the staff were wonderful and friendly and Saman was particularly helpful. We do wish we could have stayed longer!

The lowest category room is about 400 USD but the properties didnt worth the price. The room was quite old and looks dated and phone was out of service. If we dont have the local sim card then we cannot call reception for buggy to pick up. Staffs were very well attentive and helpful and the dinner was excellent and delicious. Breakfast was not good , limited to order and charge for the water which quite unacceptable. This is 4-5 stars hotel that closest to Lion rock so we have no choice but expect more than we have got If the price is 200-250 USD i would not complain at all

Property is conveniently located for touring nearby cultural sights - Sigiriya (20 minutes by car), Dambulla (20 minutes by car), and Anuradhapura (60 minutes by car). It's also an excellent eco-lodge with endangered wildlife on property. Guests can sign up for a night nature walk with the staff naturalist to spot loris, which we did - a highlight of our 9 day holiday in Sri Lanka. The individual 'hut' style rooms are very spacious and filled with all the amenities of a luxury hotel. The property has an excellent, albeit pricey, restaurant with daily specials. The staff is excellent - warm, friendly, proactive in terms of service orientation. Overall value for what the property offers is high. Our only recommendation would be to "super seal" the glass doors and windows to ensure that nature stays outside of the guest rooms.

It was a slice of paradise. Even though it looked great in photos, it is far more special in real life. Within moments of arriving we saw a crocodile swimming in the lake! There are peacocks wandering about and the place is full of nature. The villas are beautiful and spacious with a great double bath, and plunge pool. We were looked after by Dissas, who made our stay perfect. He was charming and so helpful. He arranged a great eco friendly elephant safari for us. We highly recommend staying at this hotel which is more than a hotel!
