Jetwing Hotels launches Jetwing Jungle Lodge, Yala, a pioneering step towards sustainable luxury in Sri Lanka
In the heart of Sri Lanka’s wild coastal frontier, the newly refurbished Jetwing Jungle Lodge (formerly known as Jetwing Safari Camp) has emerged as a beacon of sustainable luxury. This exquisite retreat, nestled adjacent to the renowned Yala National Park, offers guests an unparalleled experience of coastal luxury amidst the untamed beauty of nature.
Jetwing Jungle Lodge is not just a hotel; it’s an immersive experience that blends the thrill of the wilderness with the comfort of luxury. The lodge boasts ten private Jungle Dwellings, each a sanctuary of serenity with expansive wooden terraces that serve as perfect vantage points to observe the diverse wildlife that roams freely through the property.
The recent enhancements at Jetwing Jungle Lodge are not limited to aesthetic upgrades. The introduction of a stunning rooftop infinity pool offers guests a tranquil oasis to soak in panoramic views of the Indian Ocean and the lush jungle canopy. The culinary journey at the lodge is a celebration of Sri Lankan heritage, infused with international flavors, offering guests a diverse palette of dining options from the main restaurant, The Thicket, to unique dining experiences at The Hive rooftop bar and beach dining on the dunes. Additionally, to elevate the guest experience, a team of skilled butlers is on hand to offer personalized service and curate exclusive excursions.
Jetwing Jungle Lodge’s commitment to sustainability is evident in its strides towards becoming Sri Lanka’s first ‘Net Zero’ resort. The installation of a 125kW solar photovoltaic system marks a significant step in this journey, projecting to offset the entirety of the resort’s direct and indirect emissions. The transition from conventional fuels to on-site generated biogas and biomass further underscores the lodge’s dedication to environmental stewardship.
For those seeking an escape that harmonizes luxury with ecological consciousness, Jetwing Jungle Lodge offers a guilt-free retreat into the wild, where every moment is a step towards a more sustainable future.
