Just returned from one week at the Riu. There were 6 of us travelling together (ages 28-30) from toronto, Ontario. It was about a 45 minute bus ride from the airport, and check in at the hotel was quick and easy. they already had our rooms ready for us (we didn't upgrade to an ocean view room) and ended up...

We booked the trip knowing it would be rowdy, but had no idea how bad. We are in our late 40's and early 50's. Love to have a good time and party at the pool most of the day. Problem is that the younger guests also loved the pool and the late night bar/disco activities. We were pretty much kept... More

Upon arrival to the Riu Sante Fe it is just like any other Riu in Mexico or the Caribbean, drinks at check in, sports bars and buffets. I have been to many Riu's and this is possibly the worst. The beach does not have ANY type of swimming area, so forget about the ocean unless you want to take a... More

We have stayed at the Riu properties often in our travels and this one did not disappoint us!! From the beautiful lobby to the well appointed rooms we were not disappointed. Although this room was smaller than most that we have stayed In, it was still no issue. We had a perfect location in building seven overlooking the "quiet" pool.... More

I always read the negative hotel reviews first. The Riu Sante Fe had a few negative reviews and I tried hard to come up with some of my own. The hallways were noisy at times and sound did echo around, the evening shows were a little lame a couple of times, the wait in the al carte restaurants was a... More

This resort has an absolute stunning view. The people were very friendly. The food was certainly acceptable. I'm female and I went by myself for some R&R. It was fantastic. I met many great people (90% Canadians Im sure). I never felt nervous or worried walking from my room to dinner and I did stay out late some nights. The... More

We stayed for 2 weeks January 13 to the 27th, in the Riu Santa Fe, so we had lots of time to review it. We stayed in Building 7, there is 2 buildings attached like a U . You have to take 2 different elevators to take you to various levels in the 2 sides, this confused many people. The... More

Having stayed at Riu All-Inclusive resorts in Cancun and Puerto Vallarta before, we were confident in booking the Riu Santa Fe in Cabo San Lucas... and were not disappointed! We feel that RIU's are a great value for the price paid. While not "super fancy/up-scale", the food, drinks, facilities, and service are quite good! The layout of the RIU Santa... More

My family and I returned from the Riu Santa Fe for our daughters wedding andwe now could use another restful vacation. We all were in building 7 and apparently that is the "Canadian party spot. Screaming, slamming doors, furniture being scraped across the tile floors were a nightly occurance @ 2, 3,4 and 5am. Pooping in the pool apparently is... More
