Oct 30, 2025Budget All Inclusive
Friendly and helpful staff, clean rooms with stocked drink bars, comfortable beds, cold AC, and good water pressure. Regarding food-mixed reviews on food options (would stick to buffet or Mexican food choices) as some of the ethnic food options are lacking in flavor. Multiple pools to choose from, water slides. Great overall budget resort.

Amazing stay
The RIU was amazing, my wife and 2 teens and I loved everything. Very clean, friendly staff, awesome food and drinks. The scene at the difference in the pools, the beach, the gym, everything was great.

Great time!
We had a wonderful stay at the Riu Santa Fe. Everything was clean, staff was nice and super helpful, food was good and the amenities were great! Would definitely go back in the future. Very much a party destination (which is why we went) but also relaxing areas for when you wanted to have a calm, relaxing day by the pool/more family focused.

Oct 28, 2025Unsatisfied Resort Experience
My main issue with this resort was the constant loud music during the day and evening. The RUI party venue is outside so music from it echoes through much of the resort area. Some guest choose to bring those own music to pool area. This should not be allowed. In addition, the front beach area pool area plays loud music at times. Our room was dirty when we checked in. To the resorts credit we were immediately moved to another room that was clean. Restaurants were OK, I was disappointed with the food at the Asian restaurant. The staff service was good from restaurant wait, bar, and housekeeping staff was good. If you want a place to party and don’t mind loud music all the time this place may be for you.
