The grounds and pools are beautiful all else is below average. The quality of food is fair, putting banners and jerseys on a wall does not make a large room a sports bar. The mini bar in the room was never filled after half a dozen calls. The weather was great, thank goodness! The staff were not friendly. Would definitely... More

As with all resorts there are some good comments and some less than positive. On the good side there is lots to do and the location provides activities for all ages. The pools down by the ocean are where the action is and the pools in the middle of the resort are more suited if you have small children or... More

Ambitious walking distance to markets/shopping/dining Front Desk Service..... Very friendly and extremely helpful. Took our group of 8 off to the side to explain... More

We got back a few days ago from a week at the Riu. The check in was the fastest we've experienced...very well done. The property is nicely kept and the food was very good. The halls were noisy..could hear conversations of people walking along as if they were in the room and the room doors didn't always lock properly so... More

Stayed Jan 21-28 2012. I hope you find this review helpful as it is long and detailed but honest. We truthfully could not have asked for anything more from this hotel, staff or location. It was a perfect week weather-wise as well. Temp was 27-29C every day. Travelled with my parents, wife and 19mo boy. Check-In: When we arrived on... More

Just returned yesterday from a week at the Riu Santa Fe, and what a great week of R&R! Unless you go out of your way to find fault, we don't know how you couldn't enjoy the Riu Santa Fe. We'd go back in a minute! We've done lots of all-inclusives over the years, and rated this the best one yet... More

Had a great time at this resort. The view was incredible!! Resort was beautiful and very clean. It's a little bigger than what I'm used to but I didn't mind a bit of walking. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Check in was fast. The front desk was great which has never been the case anywhere else I've... More

We had a lovely king size room with a view over looking the ocean we had no complaints with our room when we finally got into the correct one. At first they tried putting us in a double room with pool view we had paid for the up grade when we booked and it didn't take them long to fix... More
