Beautiful boat ride to your cabin

We loved the spot. Beautiful place on the river. The advertisement on Hotels com didn't mention that you can't drive to the cabin. You have to call or text and someone will come and get you on the boat. The ride is great, but we would have liked to have known about it beforehand. We like to just go somewhere without having to bother someone to get to the other side of the river! So I guess my complaint is with the ad. Breakfast was just delicious. Fresh fruit was our favorite. I'd definitely recommend, but with more information

I didn't want to rate this too low. The place is "quaint," and we booked it for its proximity to the airport, not its amenities. However, we also booked it because it had AC, and the tiny little window unit barely kept the room bearable. The people were very friendly, but I would book elsewhere next time.

Eaten alive by mosquitos

Even though we covered ourselves with bug spray we gotten eaten alive by mosquitos while we slept. Broken screens allowed bugs to enter and the place is worn down. Beware! If you book your stay they do NOT offer a refund if you cancel. Such a disappointing experience. Kevin is the only capable asset they have.

Kind manager, cute dogs, not much else

We stayed here for one night before a flight. Kevin, who manages the property, was so kind and helpful and friendly. Honestly, he truly made the stay. It's fun to cross the river on the boat and it's beautiful! That said, the property is very old and kind of run down. The "bar" is a fridge with sodas and bottled beers. The game room is old, but works. There is nothing else to do on property. The cabanas are... rough. We were promised a cabana with a king bed. Turns out, they all only have double beds. For two people on a honeymoon, that's a big bummer and I would have chosen somewhere else if I had known. The cabana was SO hot when we arrived and didn't cool down for about 5 hours, though we had the tiny in-window AC unit blasting the whole time and were sitting right next to it. The water pressure was practically non-existent. You could see the ground through the floorboards. The beds were comfortable enough and I was pleasantly surprised that the pillows were decent, considering the rest. There were many dogs on the property, which I personally loved, but may be a drawback to others. They did get into a barking spat for about 5 minutes late at night. We're used to dogs so that didn't bother us. They were a welcome warmth in our opinion. Really, I wouldn't particularly recommend staying here, which hurts my heart because we would love to see Kevin supported. He was so helpful and kind and it was so easy to get to dinner and the airport because of him.

The location of the property is great, right on the river. But they are trying to sell the property, and some things aren’t being dealt with. I had booked a room with a king bed, but we were given a room with 2 queens. When I asked about it, Kevin (the only employee there) said that is what management told him to give us. It said air conditioning, but the floor boards aren’t sealed and you can see the ground through the cracks, which means the cold air is going out. The room was clean, as well as the bathroom, but we couldn’t use the shower as only hot water came out. The faucet handle was stuck. We didn’t worry about it as it was only 1 night we were staying. Kevin was the only employee, and he was very nice and helpful. However, coming home from dinner, his boat broke down in the middle of the river and we waited for maybe 45 min in the cab, to get across the river to the place. It’s the only way to get to the place. The boat needs to be replaced as it’s falling apart. I sat on one of the chairs and almost fell over as it was barely attached to the boat. Again, since they are trying to sell, not much is being cared for. Hopefully someone will buy the property and fix it up, as we loved the location.

You have to take a very short pontoon boat ride to the cabins. Once you are at the cabins, you are essentially stuck. The host was nice and ordered us in dinner. He also cut coconuts down from trees when we asked. We drank the water and ate some of the flesh from the coconuts. We relaxed in the hammocks and in the cabin. It was convenient for our morning flight.

It's really a beautiful location right on the river, and transportation to restaurants and the airport was quick and reliable. The place is now for sale and really could use some TLC and general repairs and more maintenance. But the air conditioner worked, the sheets were clean, and it was a very nice environment.

Coolest "Airport Hotel" Ever!

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.
