Dry Zone
Vil Uyana
With Vil Uyana, the hotel’s umbrella group, Jetwing, have hit the bullseye in finding a perfect blend of eco-consciousness and luxury, with neither being compromised by the other. Harmony. The architecture has taken elements of traditional design to fit beautifully into the surrounding landscape that flows through the site.
Just a 15-minute drive away from the Sigiriya rock fortress. This stunning, boutique retreat exudes both seclusion and style.
A diverse range of habitats encourage good birdlife in the immediate vicinity, the spacious verandas allowing for convenient viewing opportunities. The five room types: Forest, Marsh, Paddy, Garden and Lake, are aptly named according to the sort of habitat in which they are located.
The resident naturalist leads early morning bird watching excursions, while in the evenings you can join a guided walk searching for nocturnal creatures like slender lorises. An Ayurvedic doctor provides treatments in the spa. The restaurant, Apsara, provides exquisite all day dining, while you can gaze out to the distant view of the ancient Sigiriya rock fortress.

Our guide was excellent being knowledgeable, interesting, trustworthy and a good travel companion. I would unhesitatingly recommend him to your future clients. Yala was undoubtedly the highlight of the tour and from a wildlife point of view exceeded our expectations. My wife and I have had a thoroughly enjoyable two weeks in Sri Lanka. Everything ran smoothly and there were no major faults. Astounding scenery and wildlife, friendly people and delicious food.
We will certainly consider using Reef and Rainforest again. Thank you for putting together a wonderful itinerary which covered all our needs in the time available. A return visit to see other parts of the island will be on our list!
