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 “Kingfisher” 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.
