Our first visit to Jamaica was at this rural, wonderful lodge. The scenery is beautiful. The people are very accommodating. The food is wonderfully authentic Jamaican. We were able to spend peaceful days surrounded by natural beauty and serenity. For a truly authentic experience, River Lodge is the place to choose!

I have brought groups to River Lodge on a number of occasions, as well as staying there myself. I travel in Jamaica for a living, and can easily say that a visit to River Lodge is the truly authentic Jamaican experience that so many travelers are looking for. The lodge is built from an old Spanish Fort, right in the... More

Of all the places we visited in Jamaica Robin's Bay was the most special. The natural beauty all around is extraordinary and the local people so welcoming that we'd not only learnt how to play dominoes but also made some friends.

Yoga twice a day on the beautiful deck in the jungle was wonderful. The accommodations are very rustic and basic and if you come... More

This is our report about our 3rd stay in River lodge. It`s the most beautiful place I ever saw in this country.
