"Definitely stay in one of the little bungalows and not the main hotel. Good food, lovely place on the beach."

"Me and my wife go at least once a year "

"Beautiful property in a surreal environment. The staff was wonderful, and the fiod was excellent! We gad a ruver view room, whichbwas amazing. Only down side was we could hear our neighbors through the walls. Other than that no issues. Marvin, a tour guide, was the best! So very nice and professional with a vast knowledge of the flora and fauna, history, etc. "

"Very friendly staff! All throughout property! Dinner buffett was 1st class, delicious"

"Bungalows are private. Flowers and towel art every day. Great food. The garden walk and open air greenhouse was amazing and very educational. Great for families and lots of options for excursions or just relax by the pool or kayak on the river."

"I loved the staff."

"Absolutely beautiful property and grounds, you feel very immersed in nature here, and can hear howler's and bird life in about every direction. The creek below is great for a dip, and the inland blue whole is an easy 15min stroll down the road (costs 4usd per person to enter) for more swimming. Cabins are rustic but clean and tastefully decorated. As someone not used to the humidity I would have loved the option of AC, lots of fans in the cabin but they don't do much in 30 Celsius. A great experience nonetheless, and cool to hear coconuts falling on the roof and animals making noise throughout the night. Bug nets cover the beds, but bugs weren't an issue when we visited. Our kid actually had a great time with some other kids staying here catching fireflies after dinner. Which speaking of which; the food was amazing, but the staff were even better! They made the whole experience. Especially Yessica and Kenima who knew us by name and made our son feel included; showing him how to fold the napkins at dinner, pointing out cool wildlife, and offering to take him for a walk when he was at the end of his rope after a long day. It honestly felt like we were a part of the family. Wouldn't hesitate to go back again next time, just would probably opt for the room with AC :). "

"Very quiet and clean"

"I had a unique and memorable stay at River Bend. While the property itself is a bit run-down and has the feel of a bargain-basement summer camp, it was surprisingly clean and comfortable inside. The real highlight was the amazing staff, who were incredibly friendly and made me feel right at home. The resident dogs added an extra layer of charm to the place! The bar was open on arrival, the staff was ready to order-in food for dinner, and the breakfast was fresh and ready at 7:00 AM. It may not be a luxury resort, but it’s certainly the coolest airport hotel you could ask for—perfect for those seeking a laid-back, friendly atmosphere. They picked me up from the airport in a boat and took me back promptly the next day! All in all, great value for the price, and I’d happily stay again."
