The Jetwing Lighthouse sits on a rocky outcrop overlooking the blue waters of the Indian Ocean 3 kms outside the scenic port of Galle, which reflects a strong Dutch colonial influence. Located 155 km, (or a 3 hours‟ drive from the Colombo International Airport) along the breath-taking western coastline of Sri Lanka, it is flanked by endless beautiful beaches that make the drive an extremely picturesque one.
The main hotel is accessed through a stunning staircase with wrought iron artwork and an impressive architectural design. The hotel‟s 85 rooms and 3 suites are plush and there is a generous use of rich timber and eco friendly fabric, letting in fresh sea breezes and allowing stunning views of the singularly beautiful landscapes. Therefore the hotel gardens are well maintained and look across to the Indian ocean. All rooms have a sea view with a private balcony whilst the hotel has two pools, one close to the rooms and main reception and a second pool at the lower level set back from the beach and close to the hotel‟s spa. A good choice of dining options is made available at the property with the main restaurant and a fine dining restaurant and poolside bar / coffee shop. Being located on a rocky outcrop the hotel has an extensive number of stairs & steps, as a result may not be the best location for any clients who have more restricted access.
