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.

We were absolutely thrilled by the whole experience and can only commend the helpfulness and friendliness of everyone who made our holiday so special. We cannot speak highly enough of all of our guides who were extremely knowledgeable and went above and beyond to enhance our Sri Lankan wildlife encounters. We felt very privileged to be with guides who have so much expertise.
