Refined rainforest hideaway overlooking the canopy in Drake Bay
Reopening July 2026 (Formerly Gatehouse Cabin)
Our former Gatehouse Cabin is currently undergoing a complete transformation throughout May and June, emerging as Canopy Retreat—a more refined and elevated experience designed to immerse you in the surrounding rainforest.
Please note that current images reflect the previous layout. Updated photography will be available soon.
Reservations are now open for stays from 1 July 2026. We’re happy to share further details—just get in touch.
Tucked into the lush surroundings of Drake Bay, Canopy Retreat is being reimagined as one of our most inviting and comfortable escapes.
Blending natural beauty with an elevated sense of comfort, the newly renovated space will feature carefully selected materials, upgraded furnishings, and thoughtful touches throughout—creating a stay that feels both relaxed and refined.
Expect a brighter, more open atmosphere, an enhanced bathroom experience, and a stronger connection to the surrounding rainforest canopy.
Whether you’re returning to a place you already know or discovering it for the first time, this next chapter—now Canopy Retreat—is designed to offer a more immersive, high-end experience in one of Costa Rica’s most remarkable settings.
