Established in 1993, World Travel Awards seeks to acknowledge, reward, and celebrate excellence in all sectors of the tourism industry. Today, the WTA brand is recognised globally as the ultimate hallmark of quality, with winners setting the benchmark to which all others aspire. The annual programme is renowned as the most prestigious and comprehensive in the travel and tourism industry. In 2013, over 500,000 votes were cast by travel professionals and high-end tourism consumers. Each year WTA covers the globe with a series of regional gala ceremonies staged to recognise and celebrate individual and collective successes within each key geographical region.
This year, Jetwing Lagoon, Jetwing Vil Uyana, and Jetwing Blue stood dominant in their categories, winning the same awards as last year– for (respectively) Sri Lanka's Leading Spa Resort, Sri Lanka's Leading Boutique Hotel, and Sri Lanka's Leading Wedding Venue. Members of Small Luxury Hotels of the World, Jetwing Lagoon and Jetwing Vil Uyana are both marvels of architecture and design with the former being one of Bawa's finest creations, and Jetwing Vil Uyana an unparalleled combination of nature and luxury. Jetwing Blue and Jetwing Lagoon are situated in the calm fishing town of Negombo, and the birthplace of the company as well.
