Lukandi Jetwing jiknes 5 premjijiet għall-Aqwa 25 Lukanda fis-Sri Lanka

Fl-1973, id-destin tat-turiżmu tas-Sri Lanka nbidel.

In 1973, the destiny of Sri Lankan tourism changed. From humble beginnings in the fishing town of Negombo, a small family-owned company grew to be a pioneering force in the industry, and is now renowned the world over for its simple values and its promise of traditional Sri Lankan hospitality. Jetwing Hotels is now the largest resort chain in the island, with 17 properties within the country and 3 in New Zealand, Laos, and Vietnam.

The company is no stranger to worldwide recognition and awards, consistently winning at prestigious ceremonies such as HICAP, Switch Asia, PATA Gold Awards, the World Travel Awards, to name a few. However, to Jetwing, trophies and certificates are not what counts, but rather the knowledge that a guest’s experience is the best they could have ever hoped for – which was proven last year when TripAdvisor awarded Certificates of Excellence to 8 Jetwing properties, based on a consistently high ranking of the hotels by visitors from around the globe.

Jetwing now adds another feather to its cap, with the publication of TripAdvisor’s Best of 2013 list. This year around, the Travelers’ Choice 2013 Top 25 Hotels in Sri Lanka features not just 1 or 2, but an unprecedented 5 properties: Jetwing Lighthouse, Bawa’s finest creation for the hospitality industry, and a member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World, is placed 4th; Jetwing Beach, another of Bawa’s accomplishments and also a member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World comes in at 12th place; followed by Jetwing Sea, formerly known as the Seashells Hotel before a massive reinvestment and turn around in 2011 and now a 4-star rated hotel; the 5-star Jetwing Blue, the first hotel in the Jetwing chain also relaunched in 2011; and the newest member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World – Jetwing Lagoon, which also holds the honor of being Sri Lanka’s first resort hotel.

“We love it when a visitor comes to any of our properties and leaves with a smile, knowing that our service and our product is simple yet superior in every way. Through TripAdvisor, it’s refreshing to hear about different experiences, and our guests also provide us with comments that help us improve. My congratulations go out to all the other hotels that are on the Top 25 list, as it is through our efforts that Sri Lanka grows in stature as a premier tourist destination,” said Hiran Cooray, Chairman of Jetwing.
