Dear Elvia,We appreciate you took the time to leave your impressions regarding your recent stay with us. Though we manage a proper fumigation program for all our areas, it is unfortunate that we are unable to control insects at 100%.Due to the warm weather and the location of our resort, which is surrounded by vegetation, it is possible that insects can enter our facilities. Our lovely staff work to keep them under control, since our grounds have extensive garden areas. We fumigate continuously all areas to keep insects away from our grounds. We are sorry that you left our resort thinking otherwise.Best Regards,Hotel Riu Santa FeOnline Reputation Manager

Of the RUI resorts I’ve been to, it’s low on my favorite list. This is clearly the party one but my first day there, we came late afternoon and were starving and nothing was open but the sports bar and they had slim pickings.

Food options were basic and the flavor was lacking for most food options. Riu Santa Fe is more of a party resort. We have stayed at several Riu properties in different locations and Santa Fe is by far the worst one we have stayed at. Staff at Riu resorts tend to be attentive and provide excellent service but not at Riu Santa Fe. Wouldn’t stay here again.

This resort really was for those who like to party! My husband and I did enjoy ourselves and the views of the ocean that this resort had to offer. A few things to consider when booking are that the beach is not swimmable in front of this resort. The waves and undertows are too intense for any one to be in the water, but a swimmable beach is not too far away and within walking distance. This resort does not provide transportation too or from the airport, but you are able to get a taxi or uber within a minuet out front. There are 3 pools and a party pool that is exclusively for the themed riu parties! There are many restraunt and buffet options along with snack and taco bars. The Riu Santa Fe is adding on so unfortunately some rooms come with a construction view and noise throughout the day. There are 3 Riu resorts built next to each other, please do your research before booking! If you book the santa fe, that is the only resort you can eat at or use the amenities. If you book the other 2 Riu resorts, adults only or the palace, both are more expensive, you can enjoy all the amenities and restraunts at all 3 resorts!! I will say this, at the santa fe the food is good but at the palace it is 10 times better and worth paying the extra money to stay there and still be able to party at the santa fe! All in all we had a great time and cannot wait to go back with our friends! Hopefully by then the construction will be done and we'll be able to try out the adult waterpark!

Though we were excited upon arriving as the property was in a great location and looked decent we were soon very disappointed. The food was TERRIBLE. There wasn’t one decent meal on the property and we got sick from eating the food the first night. Long wait lists to get into what was the only what they called their nice restaurant which again was just another buffet restaurant with terrible food. In addition, this resort was very LOUD with a constant bass beat in the background and an overwhelming number of people in the pools . We just relaxed on the beach which there was no food or drink service . This resort was for the 20 something person just looking to get drunk and party with cheap unlimited alcohol. The bartenders couldn’t make a drink beyond a margarita. The walls in the rooms were paper thin and infact we got a phone call and a knock on our door at the same time that we were talking too loud. Yes, that’s right talking too loud. It was just two of us and we were in the crappy bed which was two double beds pushed together watching tv and having a conversation when we got the phone call and a knock from security yet there was the loud thumping bass beat throughout our entire stay. . A phone call was probably all that was necessary instead of treating us like we were committing a felony offense and sending security to our door pounding on it like we were having a wild party . Even though we love Cabo we will never stay at a RIU after this experience.

Clean. Nice. Lots of food options. Definitely a party hotel. Themed parties daily. Don’t recommend for families with little ones. Great entertainment at night (karaoke, cornhole, performances, games, live bands). Only thing that was very disappointing is that they do not have a jacuzzi! AT ALL! at check-in, they said they did and even circled it on a map. What they circled was a circular section in a pool. That is NOT a jacuzzi.

They cross contaminated my breakfast I almost lost my life on APRIL 10th 2024 ! I started to feel like I was choking I started to lose my air. I ran through the entire resort especially in the front on camera if you rewind them asking for some one to help me and call 911 not one employee helped me . While my air ways were closing I had an employee tell me it wasn't an emergency to call 911. Pls rewind the cameras you see me so distressed asking for help for someone to call the ambulance and no one listened to me or my wife . I almost died in that resort and no one cared they lied and said they were going to call my hotel room and never called . They didn't even check us in correctly we had to find our own way to our room no explanation. I knew this vacation wasn't going to be good just by the way they "welcomed us" I told my wife I didn't want to die in her arms my wife got me in a cab if it wasn't for my wife I would be able to tell my story. I would like a full refund pops Do right . This was suppose to be a celebration of marriage and birthday and ended up being a horror movie . Imagine your family member going out the country on vacation and no one at the resort helping them smh so heart breaking . I'm traumatized.
