Jun 12, 2025Amazing stay
My whole family enjoyed our stay at Riu Santa Fe. The staff was very kind and helpful. The food variety was plentiful. The parties that we attended played amazing music and the dancers on the stage were so fun to watch. The views from our room and the pool were awesome. We can't wait to come back and try the other Riu hotels.

The RIU is never a let down
I paid a little more for building 7 ocean view this year, and boy was it worth it. Looking over the front pools, the room was well insulated from sound, but the view was awesome. The room size was impressive, as was the shower water pressure. Couldn't ask for a better upgrade experience. Quality of the food seemed better this year, and the RIU parties seem perfected.

Great vacation!!
First off all I seen mixed reviews on this place, let me just say this place is amazing! Very clean and the rooms are very nice! Rooms cleaned everyday and service was great! The buffets are hit or miss, but the restaurants are amazing. The steakhouse and the Italian place were my favorite. I will definitely stay here again without any hesitation. Thank you RIu

Jun 12, 2025Overall nice, but the carnival cruise version of all inclusive
Overall a nice place, the rooms were nice, updated and clean. The pools are amazing for adults and kids, the grounds are pretty and clean. Nice view from the beach. The food was marginal, not by any means bad. Mostly buffets with the same food rotated and a huge mix of cuisine (which I guess is a good thing) but not a lot of one. I was thinking they would be cuisine specific and have more of one thing instead of a little of everything. The specialty restaurants in the evening were pretty good. Breakfast was great. The pools by the beach are party central, loud music, pool games. The adults only pools with the swim up bars got ridiculous by late afternoon/evening. Think college party, lots of drunk people and several throwing up (thankfully not in the pool🤣). The upper pool was quieter overall. The water park and little kids slide area were great. We didn’t go to any of the special parties but those also sounded like a drunk mess. If you’re close to the main walkways or the party areas, its not quiet at night with people getting back to their rooms. The staff was friendly and helpful! Good price, but if we go back to Cabo we’ll try somewhere else.
