THE STORY
We believe in Jamaica, with all its rich history, effortless lifestyle, and always flowing kindnesses. We believe that good planets are hard to find, so we’re doing all we can to protect the one we’ve been given. We believe in sun-dappled forests and moonlit nights, and unforgettable scents straight from the stem. We believe in roadside jerk chicken, afternoon water taxis, and Jeep rides along mountain streams. We believe in learning from the trees we call home, so we always go out on a limb, stand tall and proud, remember our roots, and above all, enjoy the view as far as our eyes can see.
This is our family’s fairy-tale. For 15 years, we’ve tended this idyll in our little corner of the Earth, and we hope to keep doing so for generations to come.

“On Site Activities are a
Playground in Paradise!”
PLAYGROUND IN PARADISE
If you’ve always dreamt of a Robinson Crusoe getaway, we’re here for you. Kanopi House is far enough off the beaten path to feel like a private-island paradise, but just a Jeep ride away from excursions that will refill your inspiration levels and get your heart racing again.
On property, lagoon lounging is the loveliest way to while away the day, either snorkelling the reef, kayaking through turquoise waters, or swimming out to Monkey Island. Entire afternoons are lost on swoon-worthy daybeds waiting in the open-air Living Room, accessorized with a curated library of art, culture, food and design books, and international magazines – with some delicious beach reads thrown in for good measure – and never-ending ocean views. As always, an attendant is always on hand to serve up snacks, cocktails, and any other request you may crave.
Monkey Island al fresco/picnic on the beach
We’ll sail you to the shallow stretch of water surrounding the private island lovingly named for, well, another island that once had a rampant colony of charming little monkeys. Choose to snorkel the rest of the way or wade through the low tide to the shaded beach, where an al fresco feast awaits.
Don’t forget your water shoes, as the sea bed is dotted with urchins. We also recommend a GoPro so you don’t miss the rainbow of creatures swimming beneath the surface.
Kanopi House picnic baskets are filled with your choice of beverages and provisions.
Lagoon Boat Tour
Enjoy a leisurely hour-long look at the waters surrounding Kanopi House. They’re breathtaking. Ice-cold beverages included.
Rafting Down the Rio Grande
Errol Flynn and his friends used to regularly enjoy this trek, and so do our guests. Imagine the serenity of floating down river for hours past waterfalls and riverbank villas, through lush rainforests and working farmland, on a thirty-foot raft steered by one of our favourite local captains. We’ll send you off with provisions, but save room for lunch at Miss Belinda’s famed riverside eatery. You’re going to love her and the magic she creates on a plate.
