Why Stay Here

Sri Lanka’s first Bawa wellness resort

Reading Time : 15 Minitess

Where land meets lagoon and breeze mingles with stillness, a vision by Geoffrey Bawa continues to breathe — calm, symmetrical, and eternal.
Welcome to Jetwing Lagoon Wellness, Sri Lanka’s first purpose-built wellness retreat by the iconic architect himself — a sanctuary on the edge of Negombo Lagoon, where water and wellbeing are the language of life.

“The lagoon doesn’t reflect the sky — it remembers it.”

Here, simplicity is luxury. Timber, clay, and breeze form the palette; serenity the design.
