Jetwing Vil Uyana, A Luxury Reserve

Jetwing Vil Uyana, A Luxury Reserve

10/10 Excellent
"Had the most amazing four night say at Vil Uyana. From the moment we arrived, greeted with a blue water lilly each - a nice touch - to our departure, the stay was a delight. Immediately out chalet was upgraded to a waterside property and we were introduced to our personal butler Prasanna who went out of his way to make our stay a delight, including serving us at breakfast and our evening meal, and showing us round the hotel organic farm where they source much of the ingredients for the wonderful meals in the restaurant situated above the lake. All the staff, including the lovely Dilshani who also served our table were so friendly and welcoming at every turn. Our ‘chalet’ was so comfortable and roomy we couldn’t believe it and staff came twice a day to service the room. We also took advantage of the hotel naturalist staff and enjoyed a birdwatching trip and a night time walk around the estate searching for the Loris who live there. Importantly for us the sustainability of the project is impeccable with as much use of local materials and as possible and a genuine commitment to sustainability. We were also keen to use local Sri Lankan hotels and guesthouses on our trip and Jetwings is just that, employing and training local people, especially young people and women ‘returners’. Brilliant!"

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Galnewa

  1. Book for the cheapest times: Galnewa boasts a range of attractions that are well worth discovering, especially those tied to its landmarks, history, culture, and natural beauty. For a truly enriching experience, visitors should plan to stay for at least three days, allowing ample time to explore these budget-friendly offerings. With affordable options available, Galnewa provides great value for money, making it an excellent choice for those travelling on a budget. Additionally, prices for accommodations and activities may drop during off-peak seasons, further enhancing its appeal.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To uncover last-minute deals in Galnewa, visit the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute Deals section on Hotels.com, where you may discover discounted rates on hotels as your travel date approaches. By enabling email alerts or push notifications, you could find out about flash sales and exclusive promotions, helping you save on your bookings. Additionally, the Smart Shopping feature within the app allows travellers to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you're more likely to see the best options available. Stay informed on price changes or room availability, and seize the chance for a spontaneous getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate depending on factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your travel dates could allow you to save on your stay at a hotel in Galnewa. For those seeking a unique experience, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised atmosphere and sometimes offer better value. When you make a booking through Hotels.com, we’ll inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price is on the higher side, we may suggest alternative dates that could be more affordable, helping you to secure the best deal possible.
  4. Consider your location: Staying in the heart of major cities in Galnewa undoubtedly offers the advantage of convenience, as you are in close proximity to local attractions and amenities. However, this prime location often comes with a steeper price tag. Conversely, smaller towns and rural areas are more likely to be affordable, providing a more budget-conscious alternative. For travellers seeking better rates, opting for accommodation just outside the city centre may be a wise choice, although it may necessitate additional travel to reach key attractions. Additionally, exploring nearby cities can yield a wealth of experiences while still being gentler on the wallet.
