Hotels (Commonwealth Union)_ In Sri Lanka’s untamed coastal wilderness, the recently revitalized Jetwing Jungle Lodge, formerly Jetwing Safari Camp, has redefined sustainable luxury. Positioned on the edge of the famous Yala National Park, this exceptional retreat invites guests to experience the perfect blend of comfort and the raw beauty of nature.
Jetwing Jungle Lodge offers more than just a place to stay—it’s an immersive journey into the wild. The lodge features ten exclusive Jungle Dwellings, each designed as a tranquil hideaway with spacious wooden terraces that provide an ideal spot for observing the area’s abundant wildlife in its natural habitat.
The lodge’s recent upgrades extend beyond mere aesthetics. The addition of a breathtaking rooftop infinity pool presents a serene space where guests can relax while taking in sweeping views of the Indian Ocean and the surrounding jungle. Dining at Jetwing Jungle Lodge is a culinary celebration of Sri Lanka’s rich heritage, enhanced by international influences. Guests can indulge in diverse dining options, from the main restaurant, The Thicket, to unique experiences at The Hive rooftop bar and beachside meals on the dunes. To further elevate the guest experience, a dedicated team of butlers is available to provide personalized service and tailor-made excursions.
Jetwing Jungle Lodge’s dedication to sustainability is at the core of its operations, aiming to become Sri Lanka’s first ‘Net Zero’ resort. The installation of a 125kW solar photovoltaic system is a significant milestone in this mission, expected to neutralize the resort’s direct and indirect carbon emissions. The lodge’s shift from traditional fuels to on-site generated biogas and biomass underscores its commitment to environmental responsibility.
For travelers seeking a luxurious escape that aligns with ecological values, Jetwing Jungle Lodge offers an ideal retreat. Here, every stay not only pampers the senses but also contributes to a sustainable future, allowing guests to enjoy the wild responsibly and in style.
