Company information

We created Collective Retreats because we love travel and believe in its power to help us connect—to places, to people, and to ourselves. But most traditional hotels are simply places to sleep. We’re changing that, with an innovative approach to travel that unlocks the true potential of places. Our team has decades of experience in travel and hospitality—and more importantly, a shared appreciation of exploration, adventure, and innovation. We are building a company that makes it possible for luxury to coexist with ruggedness, for fine dining to happen under the stars, and for people to connect to a place and to those around them.

Property information

A quick ferry ride from downtown Manhattan, this peaceful oasis is nestled near the hills of historic Governors Island. You’ll be surrounded by sprawling green space with unparalleled views of the Statue of Liberty across the New York Harbor. It’s a retreat unlike any other in the world.

Neighbourhood information

Our accommodations offer a little something for every travel style, from the rustic comfort of the Summit Tent to the eclectic elegance of the Outlook Shelter.
