A
deluxe boutique hotel where the transformation of the land into
patches of forested areas, creates the feeling of ultimate privacy.
This is a true haven for those who wish to escape from everyday
life, and ideal for nature lovers who wish to pamper themselves
in luxurious comfort.
Location Just 3 miles from probably the 8th wonder
of the world, Sigirya Rock Fortress, this unique new Jetwing hotel
successfully combines local and rural traditions with luxury in
a delightful natural habitat. The first hotel in Sri Lanka to build
rooms over the water. The local habitat of Vil Uyana meaning 'water
garden', creates a wonderful setting for peace and tranquillity
yet with easy access to the many sights of Sri Lanka's cultural
triangle. Situated about 41/2 hours drive from Colombo and 4 hours
from the airport, or transfer by seaplane at a supplement on request.
Facilities Include two restaurants, one Al fresco for
more casual dining and one fine dining room, a bar, a well stocked
wine cellar and library lounge. After a day's sightseeing why not
relax by the hotel's swimming pool. You may also choose to dine
in your room or at the Jetwing Spa which offers a wide range of
pampering treatments and Yoga. There is also a fitness centre, boutique
and DVD library. Bicycles are also available at the hotel.
