This property promises an authentic cultural immersion while offering modern amenities and proximity to Galle’s iconic landmarks.

Jetwing Hotels and Villas introduces its latest addition to the eclectic portfolio, Jetwing Galle Heritage Home. The private villa is a restored traditional Southern Sri Lankan manor, nestled in the historic city of Galle.

Hiran Cooray, Chairman at Jetwing Symphony PLC, said, “Our recent transformation of a traditional Northern home in the heart of Jaffna – Jetwing Mahesa Bhawan, gave us the confidence to take on more similar projects, resulting in our latest opening of a heritage home in the Southern capital of Galle. As a company committed to Sri Lanka in every way, we are pleased to contribute to the restoration and preservation of heritage properties across the Emerald Isle and create new experiences for discerning travellers.”

The heritage villa comprises of three spacious rooms, including two deluxe rooms and an enchanting attic suite, where modern comforts seamlessly blend with the traditional. A fully equipped kitchen, inclusive of a wood-fired clay stove and a gas stove, is available for guests to prepare their own meals, along with a private chef who will be at the property to prepare meals on request.
