I stayed in the Outlook Villa for my solo trip. Overall it was nice and comfortable. Service was very good and the villa was beautiful. I had a few issues but it didn’t impact my vacation time.
Twice I had people enter the villa without checking. I know it’s a relaxed atmosphere but it did freak me out that despite having the privacy button on, people still entered.
The wifi is not strong in the actual villa. It kept dropping and I ended up hot spotting to my personal phone.
Had a fabulous and relaxing time celebrating my birthday. We will definitely be returning. Hope to take advantage of more activities and would rent one with a bathroom. Really impressed.
Lovely stay at the Collective. Welcomed at the ferry and drove round to the retreat. We were checked in, driven to our tent, showed around & within 20 minutes, we were settled in. The tent was gorgeous & the place felt very safe. We didn’t eat dinner but the views were incredible. Air traffic was loud but it’s NYC, nothing unexpected. Breakfast food was delicious. Would definitely stay again & will recommend to friends.
Besides the Staten Island Ferries and Party Boats at 2am The Retreat was beautiful and exciting

It was a very nice and unique stay. Sleeping tent and adjoining bathroom tent roomy with a good view. Did need to pass through a 2-3 step open space to get from sleeping area to our bathroom tent. Liked their soaps and creams. The staff was very nice and aimed to please but it took many asks for simple things to be addressed (missing lt bulb, clearing/replacing used coffee items etc). Breakfast at restaurant very good. Dinner, for most part, good though some seasonings iffy. Our waitress was very accommodating and appreciated.Good bar and drinks. Enjoyed hammocks and fire pits. Should note it’s not a quiet location- water and air traffic a constant and sounds (sirens) carry across the water. Embraced it all as part of being in NYC!
Just what we expected. Staff was nice & helpful. Hanging out in the middle of New York Harbor. Happy Hour was relaxed (1 free w your stay). Dinner was good (additional). Smores & Campfire were great (included). Beds were comfy. They had coffee available in our room to make which we did at 6am when we woke. Breakfast was fine and it starts at 8am (additional but came with a breakfast beverage - we had coffee). And they will hold your bags after checkout if you want to go explore Governor's Island - which we did. Overall a relaxing & enjoyable time. You will hear the ferry & helicopters from time to time but that's nothing compared to NYC constant noise.
What did we like? The uniqueness. The eco friendly focus. the staff was friendly and polite. The views. What didn't we like? We were not checked in until and hour late. It was sweltering hot outside which did not help anything - not their fault. We weren't informed the staff provided golf cart transportation upon request. There were many closed eateries and museums because we were there on a weekday not a weekend - again not their fault. Google maps said the venues were open but they either closed early or were under construction/renovation. We were not informed temporary barricades are erected and fences lock after 5/6pm when the island closes to the public. The only way back into our host facility was by staff golf cart.
