We stayed for only one night here as we had to catch our flight the next morning. Wish we had stayed longer. Beautiful hotel. I believe the rooms/hotel has been renovated recently and they have a done a tremendous job. All rooms face the beach/pool with a large balcony. Rooms are comfortable with all the amenities, poolside bar and the... More

We stayed at the Jetwing Sea for 8 nights from 11-19 January 2012 for our honeymoon. Airport transfer time is very convenient - it took about 30 minutes during evening rush hour from the airport! On arrival we were offered a hot towel and fresh coconut juice before being escorted to our deluxe room on the 4th floor (top floor... More

I stayed here with a group of friends at the end of our Sri Lankan trip. The rooms were luxurious and spacious and very clean. They have lovely sea views! The beach was clean and the pools really nice to relax around. The hotel is close to the airport so ideal if you have an early morning flight too. More

Food in hotel was above average and the drink prices... More

We (family of four) stayed two weeks at JetWing Sea. The hotel was really worth the money! Pool area wasn't so good (small pools), but who needs pool when you have Indian Ocean. Rooms were spacious and very clean with all the amenities you would need. View was spectacular. Breakfast one of the best I've have all over the world.... More

Good points: the hotel is huge, spacious, elegant and clean. The rooms are luxurious with really comfy huge beds. The staff couldn't be more accommodating - especially the evening restaurant staff, hotel manager and reception. The swimming pools are great for lengths and the immediate beach is clean. the restaurants on the main road strip are fun for a change... More

Our first reaction when we walked up the steps into the large communal lounge area shortly after checking in was 'WOW' the ocean was right THERE! It was such a beautiful sight, and there was a welcoming breeze flowing through the lounge area. We were handed a glass of fresh mango juice and we sat on the decking in the... More
