So many reviews and opinions - Not sure where to begin except to say that if you do your research, it pays off. We knew exactly what to expect, and we were not dissapointed. I think a lot of people with negative reviews didn't know what they were getting into. We were met with a welcome cocktail - and taken... More

POSITIVES: Clean, friendly, good value, good options for differnet pools (5 differnet pools) Large and small. Overall a good trip. They try hard to make fun for eberyone and the staff are very friendly and they keep the place VERY clean. Close enough to beach although not beachfront. NEGATIVES: Bar alcohol was low grade but managable, beer is on tap... More

The furniture is mordern and very nice. Our room over looked the... More

We just got back from staying at the Riu Santa Fe and had a great vacation. The resort was very clean, food was good, and we had plenty to do. The staff at the hotel was extremely friendly. We did yoga, water aerobics, table tennis, darts, and beach volleyball. I wish they would have mixed activities up a little more.... More

We've stayed at the Riu Palace & Santa Fe and had a great time! The location is good, just a 20 min beach walk into town or take a glass bottom boat taxi in. Food, service, & company you meet is well worth it! More

We went to Cabo last May to scout a location for our wedding, so this review is a bit delayed. But never the less, our memories of Riu Santa Fe are still fresh because it was such a great experience. First off, the location of this resort is fantastic, not only because of its proximity to town, but also because... More

Stayed 4 nights at this property for my husband's 40th. We went with another couple. Our first time to Cabo. The airport had so many sliding doors. Every time I thought I was finally headed outdoors, I was bombarded by another time share salesman. I finally made it thru unscathed. Check in was simple. We were immediately offered a margarita....

My friend and I stayed here in June last year and truly enjoyed the amazing weather! The hotel has all of the standard Riu ammenities, great pools, nice buffets and a la cartes, awesome gym and spa. In fact, when you go into the spa/gym they have these two delicious healthy drinks, be sure to try them! Very thirst quenching!... More
