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

We travelled to Cabo the week before Christmas and stayed at the Riu Santa Fe. Both my parents, my husband and I, and our 8 month old son stayed for one week. The food was good for an AI resort. The restaurants were very good but hard to get reservations. Book your dinners early in the morning if you can.... More

I travelled here for a one week stay with my boyfriend Dec 9-16. The resort was unreal. The buffets were amazing, so much selection I dont know how anyone could get sick of it. The Al e cartes were a little dissapointing, italian was the best and the mexican was the worst. The pools were unreal although when we went... More

This hotel was wonderful. It was beautiful, new, clean, well kept, and had very friendly and efficient staff. If a care-free all inclusive vacation is what you are looking for, this is the place to be. Don't expect to see the real Mexico here though. (You probably are not looking for the real Mexico on an all inclusive vacation anyway).... More

Just came back last night from the Santa Fe and I was happy with the hotel. We stayed in building 3 which was central to the beach and the lobby and were happy with our room. Clean, and large - although the two beds pushed together for a "king" bed wasn't the best, but not a big deal. The food... More

The RIU Santa Fe is the best hotel to stay with a family. The pools are awesome and food is free. The entertainment crew is the best. They have stuff going on all day at the pool. The beach is nice, although not the best for swimming as the waves can get somewhat dangerous. A short walk toward town on... More
