Reviews for Jetwing Blue
Review 1:The super deluxe room was supposed to have a sea view, however all you could sea were the trees on the beach. I begrudge paying more for a sea view when I do not have one. The spa was awful. I had booked a Swedish massage, however the therapist didn't seem to know what that was and then I switched therapists and she was a bit better but still it was not a good massage. And a male therapist initially tried to start my treatment despite the fact that I had asked for a female and there were no questions from either therapist to ask if I had areas of concern or health issues etc. If you book through booking.com the hotel will charge your credit card on arrival in full for the accommodation but they will not advise you. Therefore when you go to check out and want to pay either by cash or another card or split the bill (as I wanted to) there is an issue. The beach is a public beach therefore you may spend a lot of time saying no (or yes) to people trying to sell you clothes, art, shells, shoes, bags, fishing trips etc. The hotel has free WiFi, however it didn't work in our room (223). All in all it is not a 5 star hotel and could be so much better than it actually is.
Review 2:I went away for 3 nights with a friend to relax by the beach and indulge in a few spa treatments. The room (super deluxe) was great, very spacious, clean and comfortable. The staff were also very friendly.
Review 3:Nothing to add - it was all good!
Review 4:The restaurant was excellent - we had the a la carte dinner twice and the buffet breakfast. Fine food and attentive staff. All in all, a great finale to our stay.
Review 5:The crows that somehow get inside the Restaurent and snatching food, the homeless dogs that roam around.
Review 6:The location, away from Colombo, the relaxed beach all these contributed to us enjoying this hotel. The rent we paid was quite worth it.
Review 7:Bathroom wasn't upto expectation, shower wasn't functioning properly so was the bath tub. Food was the biggest disspoinment, spread was not good, not refilled fast. Even the Xmas day special dinner wasn't that good! Staff need a significant improvements on language proficiency and customer care. Eg: we asked room service whether they can clean the room in the afternoon instated of the time he came because we were in the room his response was he'd busy in the afternoon. Ordered a club sandwich without beef and after 20-30mins the sandwich came with beef! Asked for a water bottle room the house keeping promised to bring in 10mins and never returned!
Review 8:The room was satisfactory with a comfortable bed and the beach was clean and easily accessible from the hotel premises. Located in a convenient place with easy access to an array of eating/ hang around places.
Review 9:can't access the wifi inside the room we booked room with sea view but we didn't see the sea because of trees !
Review 10:location is good room is clean nice staff
Review 11:Very disappointed very bad wifi connection. In the weekend very busy with lokáals voor drink en fun pool party no problem but 12 pax in one room is crazy thay say is only for day time ????? En whats out for room on special offer they are not in hotel located but opsite from the hotel en has notting too do with the hotel the blue. this pax how bookt thee in thr de
Review 12:This was a classic bait-and-switch where I thought my room Was going to cost $80 but was told when I got there I was in the annex across the street and had to pay much more to be in the main building.
Review 13:Nice staff and good location.
Review 14:After a very long flight, this hotel was within 15 minutes of the airport in Colombo and gave us a superb start to our holiday. We used it as a stop over for our first night in Sri Lanka, the staff were extremely helpful and the accommodation and food was wonderful.
Review 15:How the reception people working is very worse.they took payments two times from my credit card and have to call several times to get back my money.very unhelpful reception even on my cheack in time.
Review 16:Breakfast only I did like
Review 17:Do not get an Annex room. It is not in the hotel. It's on the other side of the road so all of the lovely views and convenience go right out of the window. The beach area is full of people begging and hawking. I wasn't on the beach for 5 mins before 6 people had tried to sell me stuff or guilt me into giving money.
Review 18:Amazing pool and lovely spot just by the beach
Review 19:The "Annex" rooms are not really in the main hotel. Its like another hotel across the street. The "Annex" rooms cannot even be compared to the rooms in the main building.
Review 20:The hotel and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Food is great.
Review 21:One staff member opened the door without knocking at once. which is the worst experience you could get once you paid money and booked a luxurious room to chill with and for us felt like there's don't have any privacy. (Even the door is locked. ) This makes our whole journey a desperate and bad service.
Review 22:Nice place to enjoy the beach view.
Review 23:Our room was not great- the location was the other side of the road from the main building with no security- although I was assured there was CCTV as we are two young females. The room was a bit scruffy- but we loved the rest of the main hotel so much it made up for it. On the room alone I do not feel it was value for money.
Review 24:I loved the hotel, pool, and beachside location. I also loved the location in Nagombo, and the amazing restaurants and shopping.
Review 25:When checking out we were going to pay in cash but the hotel said that booking.com did not mention that on the voucher you sent the. The Internet went out Sunday night and never worked again. There was no hot water in the shower. upon calling them to ake a change well they would never answer and put you on hold.
Review 26:For us the bed was perfect!
Review 27:We booked the annex room. It's not in the main building of the hotel. It's on the opposite side of the road. No security guard. No waiter. The wall along the corridor is all glass, make me feel insecure. One the first day, while my boyfriend and I lying on the bed watching tv,a room attendant opened our door without knocking! We were very shocked n angry about it. He said he came to serve us a bottle of milk...
Review 28:The location is great!nearby got many famous restaurants
Review 29:Our room was not in de main building but opposite the street in appartment building. No outside windows and view.
Review 30:Perfect and extensive breakfast for € 12,50 (not included in our rate)/ Charge for early check in (5am) was waived. Large pool and beach (but very quiet)
Review 31:The shower room could be cleaner and mordenised a little. The corners of the bed were a hazard as my husband hit into it a few times and had bad bruises. No other major issues.
Review 32:The view was fantastic from the room and the staff very pleasant. Everyone we met were friendly and ready to help. Lots of eating places around and very friendly people about.
Review 33:We had an annex-room across the street. Cheaper and good for 1 or 2 nights but you have to be a good sleeper to ignore the traffic
Review 34:Beautiful beachview, clean swimming pool en good service
Review 35:The approach of the staff. I had put a complaint to the resident manger, after 5 hrs of stay following which I was given an alternative room. AC in my allotted room was not working , as well my bathroom was clogged
Review 36:There was nothing that stood out.
Review 37:- A lot of local men and women are trying to sell their stuff on the private beach and are constantly walking between the chairs. Althought it's understandable, they're often quite obtrusive and annoying.
Review 38:- We stayed in an annex room, which is located on the other side of the street. These rooms are way cheaper but are still very nice and comforable. You don't get a breakfast but it's easy to find a cheap breakfast in the neighbourhood (café J). - The swimming pool is huge and the palm tree covered beach is beautiful.
Review 39:The annex accomodation was across the road in a seperate location. No security to stop anyone walking off the street to your hotel door.
Review 40:Very nice beach location also close to Colombo airport.
Review 41:Our room was at the opposite of the street so we had to walk acrossthe busy street before really felt like we were in the hotel. Thebreakfast was not included in the price, perhaps because we got aspecial offer via booking.com but the breakfast was really expensive(1600 rps pp.!!) and they didn't tell us before so after thebreakfast we got the bill
Review 42:The wonderful poolside and the chill area
Review 43:On arrival offered rooms 200 meters away from Main Hotel. Had to cross busy road to access main hotel to use the facilities. Paid $200 extra to stay in Main Hotel
Review 44:Stayed here for just one night. Very noisy rooms. Bright lights shining into the rooms from the corridor so it felt like sleeping in daylight. Arrogant manager who couldn't handle complaints, in front of our face she made restaurant staff pay for a mistake on our restaurant bill. Out of their own pocket. Very embarrassing.
Review 45:Selection of incredibly rude staff especially at the front desk. not worth the extra money compared to jetwing sea a 2 minute walk away
Review 46:Nice rooms clean good pool
Review 47:Friendly staff all are so helpful and serve with a smile. Pool was elegant and food superb. Terrific huge room overlooking the sea, clean bathroom big bathtub and comfortable bed. WiFi was fast in any location within the hotel. We really had a lovely stay at this hotel.
Review 48:Wake up call at 7am but we never requested a wake up call. Second night we woke up do to a lot of noise in the hotel. Looked like they were unloading at lot of supplies. Overal the hotel is good but these two things made us leave unrested.
Review 49:When I arrived they tried to put me in the Annexe across the road. I told them that that was not on and had to negotiate and pay to stay in the main building
Review 50:The food
Review 51:The buffet got a bit boring and the "barbeque" buffet turned out to be just another buffet
Review 52:The room was very good and the staff were always eager to meet our requirements
Review 53:Though the property has a good reputation, they took close to 45 minutes to serve lunch. Muscles in the seafood platter were not properly cleaned and cooked.
Review 54:The room was very spacious with a good view. Helpful and attentive staff Lovely swimming pool Lovely beach stretch Good value for money
Review 55:Bad booking experience: When I booked on booking.com it specifically stated that the credit card was only used to reserve the room and that I could choose to pay in cash once reaching the hotel. However, the reception staff told us they had already run the payment on my card, which seems they don't follow the booking agreements. That was a big trust breaker and I would like to know why these rules that are clearly stated on the itinerary and in the booking process were not honored. On top of that, I never received a receipt for the room booking. It makes me wonder if the terms and conditions are just a joke to the hotel or booking.com Hotel experience: Sadly, the restaurant staff was inattentive and generally looked like they didn't care. 6 waiters would pass before one of them would clear the empty dishes off our table. One waiter named Lahiru was however an amazing exception! He seemed to be the only staff that went out of his way to please and comfort visitors. We watched him bring coffee to a lady waiting for her wheelchair to be fixed as she was stranded on a bench outside the breakfast area. He did this without her asking for anything. He really deserves recognition because he's the only reason we are not completely calling the staff out on their unfriendly attitude. The beach was flooded with locals trying to sell merchandise which was a bit annoying. Though beautifully designed, the bathroom Was not vented very well which meant that the inside of our bedroom was very humid after showering. The tiles on the floor in room 231 were very cold - so I recommend providing indoor slippers for guests or walking with your own slippers if you get cold easily.
Review 56:The ocean view was amazing. Really paradise-like and the pool was well maintained. There are 2 pools and you can use the pool next door at the Jetwing Beach Hotel too. So you can go from pool to pool. Staff at the pool and bar were quite friendly. Towels were fresh and the room was clean. The beach area in front of the hotel was also well maintained. They even had lifeguards on duty monitoring the ocean safety. And solar power used in the hotel rooms!!! Very cool!
Review 57:I liked everything other than the one day there was about 150 children from a school at the hotel using the pool and the vendors that are constantly harassing you if you step foot on the sand.. I would definitely still go again though!!
Review 58:The staff, the welcomed feeling, the good food, the pool, the room
Review 59:We stayed one night which was a Saturday, unfortunately a group of drinking men were making noises until midnight, we found it difficult to sleep
Review 60:The hotel location was nice, staff were friendly and food was good
Review 61:The room i booked was in a different building across the road, so we have to exit the hotel then cross the road which we didn't like so we upgraded the room
Review 62:We took the annexe room option. They are across the main road and are worlds apart. 3 star rooms at a 5 star hotel. Great value though and you can still enjoy pool and beach etc.
Review 63:Position/ direct access to beach and to best part of low key "strip" / main road. Pool beautiful. In house food and bev prices acceptable. Several great restaurants close by. Try Tastees.
Review 64:Our annex room was small and dark and didn't even have a window to the outside, never mind any outdoor space.
Review 65:The main hotel, pool and restaurant are all great., beautifully designed and landscaped and the staff were lovely.
Review 66:The pool speaks for itself!! Beautiful!!!!! I ate at the restaurant, a la carte, I had a beef dish which is one of the best I've had on all my travels. I was very impressed!!
Review 67:A bit expensive
Review 68:The beach is nice The annex room is outside the main hotel, if you are looking to save money and you are willing to sacrifice the view, then the annex room will be a good option
Review 69:No telephone or hairdryer in our room when we checked in. Staff were surly at times, and the dinner menu "read" fabulous, but the delivery was poor.
Review 70:Location.
Review 71:When checking in we found 6 or 7 receptionists chatting amongst each other and doing everything but checking us in. Staff losing their smile when not being tipped. Constantly being asked for the room number is not welcoming.
Review 72:Cleanliness, facilities, location
Review 73:The only bad thing is that we stayed there only two days. And the wifi is not that strong
Review 74:Everything was just perfect, the food is very delecious, beatiful pool and beach. Very nice,big and clean room, very comfortable beds. Every staff very kind and helpfull.
Review 75:The perfect place to stay at the start or end of the trip bc it's so close to the airport. Go on the catermaran fishing trip af the beach--it's great!!
Review 76:Staff were uninterested. Cleanliness was poor. Room was of poor quality. Internet was dire. Beach full of dogs. Food so so. A very very tired hotel A 3 star at best.
Review 77:Spa.Jetwing Beach next door. Jetwing beach pool,Food,
Review 78:The beach isn't great for swimming but you don't need it with the pool!
Review 79:We stayed one night before flying out to be close to the airport. We received a free upgrade to a pool side room and couldn't have been happier with our stay. The staff were great and all facilities fantastic. The buffet breakfast was the best! Would definitely return and stay a few more days!
Review 80:Fantastic hotel with a great room and great facilities! Staff are very friendly and the food was fantatsic! A great place to stay if you want to relax by the beach and enjoy the finer things in life!
Review 81:- quite pricey
Review 82:- spacious, airy, modern design - lots of communal spaces with different types of entertainment: beautiful private beach; swimming pool; bar; veranda restaurant... - great food

Review 87:There weren't enough signs to assess where you were. My wife got lost twice in the complex.

Review 93:The view, the staff, food,pool, and value for money. hotel food for all meals is amazing, many sea food restaurants are around the place, Kamlo is a recommended one
Review 94:Constantly pestered at beach and pool by hawkers trying to sell you goods, trips and taxi services. Also cleaners knocking on your door three times a day once to clean, another to deliver water, then third to check if everything ok...this whilst the DO NOT DISTURB SIGN WAS ON THE DOOR. Breakfast poor, coffee was not fresh or even hot and milk was cream and from a can how difficult is it to get normal milk or skimmed milk? choice was poor and quality not good.
Review 95:Location close to airport, Negombo shops and restaurants close by. Facilities at the hotel was good and pool very good. Rooms were spacious and nice furniture.
Review 96:More live music is needed. Why not play music in the bar outside plus it needs more lighting! I woke up early morning and the room smelled weird! Waitresses didn't seem friendly! Especially when I chose to sit somewhere far from people. Why cant the sea area be for hotel guests only? As the locals were so annoying and nosy! Too expensive. The restaurant was not good at all plus I saw the chef licking his fingets!!!
