Setting a benchmark in eco-tourism and hospitality, Jetwing Hotels introduces the award-winning eco-luxury surf resort Jetwing Surf in Pottuvil Point. Built on minimum carbon footprint, this Jetwing Symphony-invested property recently received the award for the Best Hotel Architectural Design at the Asia Property Awards 2017.
A luxury resort dedicated to surfers, Jetwing Surf is located on an unspoilt stretch of beach in Pottuvil Point with magnificent waves gushing onto shore. Only a few minutes from the surfer’s paradise of Arugam Bay, this property includes 20 beach cabanas that encompass comfortable amenities inspired by a unique style of architecture made using wood, woven coconut palm leaves and reeds. To heighten the experience by the beach, the design elements take the form of seashells, allowing guests to wander freely and fully submerge in the tropical environs.
Each of the cabanas has a spacious outdoor deck that opens out to towering coconut trees and a gleaming view of the Indian Ocean. Equipped with ceiling fans to complement the sea breeze that circles the premises, each of the rooms has a bathroom with hot and cold indoor and outdoor showers that allow you to feel closer to nature. With king-sized beds and couches, Wi-Fi, electronic power and even a beach bag with sun block, slippers and wraparounds, Jetwing Surf is your luxury abode by the sea.

A lesser known fact is that the unexplored East is a haven of natural wonders, wildlife and historical sites that can tick off many travel bucket lists. The picturesque lakes will leave you in awe as you watch migrant birds flying in and out of the waters. The sunsets by Panama Lake, Semanikulam Lake and Rotakulam Lake are majestic. For history enthusiasts, the Sastrawela Maninaga Pabbatha Viharaya, Kudumbigala Monastery, Muhudu Maha Viharaya, and Magul Maha Viharaya are significant archaeological sites with remnants of glorious tales of history. Deemed as one of the best places to spot leopard and sloth bear in undisturbed territory is Kumana National Park.
The Lahugala and Gal Oya National Parks are also in the vicinity, and are home to an abundance of flora and fauna. The resident naturalist at Jetwing Surf will make sure to take you on an inspiring journey in the East through these experiences!
