Contemporary Beachfront Estate Living at Canoe Cove on the Beach
Welcome to Canoe Cove on the Beach, a remarkable seven-bedroom beachfront estate set on three private acres along Old Fort Bay, just minutes west of Ocho Rios. With over 200 feet of shoreline, sweeping Caribbean views, and expansive grounds designed for both relaxation and recreation, this modern coastal retreat embodies a refined yet effortless barefoot luxury lifestyle.
Originally established as a beloved family beach cottage in the 1950s, Canoe Cove was thoughtfully reimagined in 2015 into a contemporary residence that preserves its relaxed heritage while introducing modern comforts, generous living spaces, and exceptional amenities.
Living Spaces
Canoe Cove’s architecture is clean, open, and intentionally understated, allowing the natural beauty of the Caribbean setting to take center stage. Inside, the interiors are grounded in warm organic textures — reclaimed teak, driftwood, Honduran pine, marble, coral stone, and natural cement floors — all chosen to create a cool, barefoot-friendly environment.
Large open living spaces flow effortlessly toward outdoor terraces and ocean views. Natural light fills the home, while stylish yet relaxed furnishings create an inviting environment for family gatherings or quiet moments of retreat.
An air-conditioned television lounge offers comfortable seating for movie nights, while thoughtfully placed sitting areas throughout the property provide spaces for reading, conversation, or simply enjoying the ocean breeze.
Unique design touches include handcrafted lighting, reclaimed wood accents, and natural materials that echo the surrounding tropical landscape.
