Raha's Retreat
Simple stays among the trees
A yoga deck among the trees gives Raha’s Retreat its own quiet focal point, while private log cottages and shared spaces keep the experience simple and close to the outdoors. The retreat sits in the green hills outside Negril, where the wooded setting feels far removed from a conventional resort stay. It may suit travelers who value solitude, time in nature and an unembellished place to pause, whether arriving alone or with a companion. The cottages offer a private base, and communal areas make room for time together without making the stay feel overly structured. A yoga deck is part of the grounds, though the format of any classes or retreat sessions can vary. Raha’s Retreat runs by donation, so ask the host about the expected contribution, dates, meals and daily arrangements before making plans.
