Kanopi House is dedicated to low impact luxury. The six acre estate has been imagineered this way!

We are situated in the Blue Lagoon District off the coast of Cognoscenti in Portland, Jamaica. Kanopi is in the midst of a lush tropical jungle featuring Jurassic-size vines, 100-foot Banyan trees, soaring bamboo, and flowering magenta ginger lilies to name only a few of flora.

You will discover an elegant, environmentally conscious oasis consisting of five natural hardwood bungalows complete with story-book pathway that takes you through sun-dappled rain-forest canopies to stunning vistas of the Caribbean Sea! Welcome to Kanopi.

Kanopi's peak-roof bungalows are 1 and 2 bedroom.  Accented in local artwork and textiles, each tree-house features a lounge area that is separated from a sheltered veranda. French doors open wide to allow the outside in. Indoor and outdoor showers offer you choices!  Each kitchen is fully stocked with cold drinks, light snacks, good wine and Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee.  Rooms are equipped with Bose sound and i-Pods fully loaded with international music.

Kanopi House has been endorsed by the National Environmental Planning Agency as an eco-friendly, low impact, organic, and green villa that treads gently upon the earth.  Handcrafted furnishings and works by local artisans are produced from renewable Jamaican materials.  No trees were harmed to design Kanopi House!  Buildings were designed to accommodate the natural landscape, where, in some cases, trees are simply integrated into the structure itself!

Meals are prepared with an emphasis on local, seasonal, traditional and organic ingredients.  Fresh greens and herbs are home grown from Kanopi's mountain garden.   Menus may be tailored to suit your preference.  Vegan, vegetarian and meat lovers are all welcome.

Spend your days lounging by the lagoon, snorkeling the reefs, kayaking through the calm turquoise waters, swimming to Monkey Island, or simply relaxing in an atmosphere of tropical eden-like ambiance.  The enchanting open-air Great Room is the perfect place to lounge away an afternoon. Enjoy panoramic ocean views, carved mahogany daybeds, art, culture, cuisine, exotic reading, and an open bar! Guests also gather here for dining. 

Kanopi staff are always available to attend to your requests and desires. For the active types, you may wish to arrange for water sport excursions.  We are happy to arrange anything you may yearn for—from sailing trips and hang-gliding, to fishing and scuba diving. At Kanopi House, we have a signature way of catering to what you like. Your wish is our command!
