Less than five minutes away from the Phillip Goldson Belize International Airport and secluded on the banks of the Old Belize River sits this tranquil Resort of River Bend with spectacular views of the Old Belize River. This resort is the ideal first stop for incoming travelers or the last stop for travelers going home as it is just minutes away from the International Airport. Resting on seven and a half acres of reclaimed jungle, the park-like surroundings of the main building and its five Cabanas are in an eco friendly location from which the guests can relax on their screened verandahs and enjoy the flora and fauna of Belize from their air conditioned rooms. The natural landscaping includes a variety of local hardwoods: Cedar, Mahogany, Mayflower, Butut, Elderberry, Cottonwood, Kapok etc. and fruit bearing trees such as coconut, soursop, cashew, tamarin, grapefruit, local miniature limes and many varieties of mango! From the resort there have been natural trails laid out leading to a Bayou called Nelly Creek and to the Savannahs to the rear of the property. On the property and from the surrounding trails many species of birds such as Parrots, Hummingbirds, Cardinals, Jays, Woodpeckers, Yellow and Black Flycatchers, Grebes, and wading Cranes of many species can be seen. In the mornings and evenings, the Howler Monkeys roar as they pass through the surrounding trees looking for their food of leaves and fruits. In the dry season the nocturnal animals appear at varying times such as families of tapir, pepesquintes, hedgehogs, tree sloths, anteaters, armadillos, raccoons, jaguarundis, and many other species of interest. Fishing from the docks during the day and night can lead to a catch of large edible Catfish, the occasional black snapper! Large tarpons prowl these waters and have been known to straighten a few hooks! What the Resort offers is seclusion, security, and the atmosphere where clients can unwind and communicate with Mother Nature at their own pace! Contact us for more information or a showing!
