Kanopi House

Ocho Rios, Port Antonio & the North Coast


By Kanopi House's measure, working with your enviroment means chic and stylish rather than dull and worthy. Gorgeous dark-wood chalets seemingly grow from the jungle and feel like part of a laid-back micro-nature resort. The property makes great efforts to leave a low ecological footprint and is stuffed with elegant art. Fresh organic dinners are prepared on site.

If you're still wavering, Kanopi has direct access to Blue Lagoon.
