Really friendly and helpful staff. Food was delicious. Very relaxing vibe. Spotted lots of birds without moving from our balcony. Although in peaceful location, easy to get tuk tuk to busier resort area.
This was our second stay at Asian Jewel and it was every bit as enjoyable as the first. Our room (Jasmine) had a direct panoramic view of Bird Lake and we saw many different species of birds as well as small animals including chipmunks, water monitors, geckos (and a cobra one one day but soon banished by the staff...). The staff here are wonderful, friendly and welcoming and nothing too much trouble, and the food is excellent with both Sri Lankan and British options. We are vegetarians and they went out of their way to adapt meals pretty much to whatever suits, but the star of the show is the Sri Lankan rice and curry. It is in a peaceful location but only a short and cheap tuk tuk ride - around ÂŁ1.75 - into the more hectic beach area.
Brilliant setting, we had toured the whole island and this was probably the best hotel we stayed at. Staff were so observant of your needs. Food very good. Have done creature comforts for the Brits especially when your curried out and want a shepherd's pie or a roast but still have all of the Sri Lankan food. Rooms are colonial style, very nice. Pool is lovely, goes to 6' and is nice and cool not warm like a lot of pools. Setting is on a beautiful lake do very tranquil but 500rps and your on the beach. Owners have deal with tuk tuk drivers so even though your out of town, your 20mins from the action, atms, supermarkets as Nd great fresh seafood. Only 5 rooms, don't hesitate to book.
Very friendly family staff superb food,and a nice pool a perfect place to rejardge your mind and Soul No children scream good for people who loves good English music 60-70th Best regards
Det var ett bra hotell med fantastisk service och personalen!
Hotellet ligger lite utanför huvudgatan och standen men enkelt och ta sig runt med hjÀlp frÄn hotellet till en villig peng.
Du fÄr mycket för pengarna pÄ hotellet!
We spent six nights at the Asian Jewel and found it a wonderfully restful place to stay, with lovely gardens and a small clean swimming pool.
We had the âKingfisherâ room which allowed wonderful views of the lagoon from the really large balcony. The restaurant offers really excellent Sri Lankan and western food. The special Sri Lankan curry is highly recommended.
All the staff are very friendly and, most importantly, helpful. They accommodated all of our needs. While not actually hotel staff, the Tuk Tuk driver the hotel regularly calls, Chamindra, is wonderful too.
Overall, truly a jewel in Asia.
Tolles komfortables Zimmer mit perfektem Service, sehr freundliches aufmerksames Personal und eine hervorragende KĂŒche. Das war bis jetzt das absolute Highlight unserer schon 3 Monate Erfahrung in Sri Lanka. Die Gegend um den See ist ein Hit fĂŒr Naturliebhaber und ein Ort der Ruhe und Entspannung,
Zee comfortabel kleinschalig hotel met een fantastische keuken en een uitstekende bediening. Een genot om daar wakker te worden samen met het gezang van ontelbaar aantal aan vogels
Lovely location away from hustle , Host and staff could not do enough always smiling.
Need a tuk tuk as nowhere around to walk to but food and drinks all good and resonable price 300lrp to beach.
Stayed in Jasmine room great for couples as it has a huge bath ,all rooms on first floor with no lift so could be a problem for some.
Would return for sure.
We stayed only two nights. Hotel is inland some 30 minutes walk to the beach. Beautiful surroundings and our room was amazing. We had one of these bath tubs near the windows with views of the lake. We stayed there off season and we were the only ones in the entire place, had the pool just for ourselves and really enjoyed it. This hotel has the best food we tried on the entire trip in Sri Lanka.
Vi sov en enkelt nat pÄ Asien Juwel og vi var ret vilde med stedet. Der var meget rent og pÊnt og restauranten pÄ hotellet laver en meget lÊkker mad. Faktisk den bedste vi fik i Hikkaduwa. Virkelig sÞd betjening, fin pool, rene og fine vÊrelser (dog er sengen lidt hÄrd - men tag gerne det med) :-)
