A Taste of the Jungle

This was a great, more primitive jungle experience. If you're looking for a fine hotel, you'll be disappointed. But the boat arrival, bird sounds at night, and jungle foliage were unique experiences. Breakfast was very limited as well. I wish we would have stayed long enough to take the jungle boat tour they offered.

I would like to request a refund for this night as I absolutely hated this accommodation. It was hideous, unsanitary, overpriced, and the service was disappointing, with photos to prove it. We found insects in the bed, there was double carpeting everywhere (we suspect the first layer was so dirty they decided to cover it rather than remove it), the shower was filthy (we deliberately chose not to use it), there was a pest repellent device in the kitchen, an air conditioning unit stuck in the window, a fire extinguisher on the floor, window screens peeling off, cold breakfast, etc. A moldy smell permeated the entire room: we barely managed to sleep with the windows open. We were charged for airport transportation, even though the website stated it was included. There was no indication that we would have to pay cash for the food we ordered. $200 down the drain. We will never return and will discourage anyone who asks us about this place.

Total rip off

Didn't tell us we needed to board a boat when we booked. Said 2 miles from airport. One of us in a wheelchair and one coming from Africa. Tried to cancel immediately and would not let us. So a total rip off. No refund hence bad review. It's worth it to be honest when advertising

We had to book our stay here last minute due to a flight cancellation, but we were very pleased by the accommodations. The rooms are spacious and clean and are equipped with a kitchenette including gas range, oven, and fridge. The staff were super friendly and helpful. Mr. Kevin and Ms. Janelle were incredibly accommodating and made sure our stay was a pleasant one. I highly reccomend this resort, jith as a vactaion spot but also as a great place to stay overnight before or after a flight through Philip Goldson International Airport in Belize City. 5/5 stars

The highlight of our stay were a pair of brawling iguanas right in front of our cabin! River Bend is a convenient 5 minute drive from the airport. The staff is exceptionally accommodating, and they went out of their way to help us feel (and be!) safe. It is a rustic location, which was perfect for us, as we are experienced rural travelers. Note that the last leg of the trip involves a 1 to 3 minute boat ride. There is a fully stocked grocery store nearby - once you are on the other side of the river it is a walkable distance, but I recommend that you strongly consider the taxi, as the driver gave us a lot of additional information.

The customer service at this resort is excellent. A rare tropical storm had flooded out the road to this resort, so we couldn’t make it there for our stay. But when I called customer service, they were very easy to work with and gave me a full refund for my stay. I hope to stay here the next time I am in Belize.

We are not new to Belize. Quaint, quirky and sometimes glitchy are part of the charm. River Bend has all these covered. You arrive across the river and Kevin came to pick us up the resort pontoon boat. It is a one minute ride across the river and the resorts friendly dogs are waiting to greet you. Loved it, the dogs are sweet. Kevin took us to our cabana which was spacious and had two queen sized beds. There is a small table but only one chair. The switches are sort of random so it took a while to figure out which one did what. TV came on but never worked. Hot water for the shower didn’t work, then it did for my wife but didn’t for me. Kitchen drawer fell apart. Toilet didn’t flush but I fixed that. The a/c works but sure was loud. The mix of carpet tiles and regular tile was interesting. All of the above can be fixed and we would come back. The location is very convenient due to its proximity to the airport. Unfortunately due to its proximity to the airport it can be very loud. The screened porches are very nice with hammocks that allow you to watch the river flowing by and the birds hunting in the plants along the river’s edge. The office is unique in that they had a pool table and dart board as well as a bar. For dinner we were able to order from the “Brewery “ which had a decent menu selection and decent food but not great food. Kevin was great and took our orders then went across the river to pick up the food and delivered it to our cabana. Try it out.

Cute property on the Belize River and super close to the airport. They have a nice little lobby/bar/hangout area with pool table, tv games, and fishing supplies. Our little cottage was amply stocked with the basic kitchenette items and was clean and spacious.
