Wow! This is the perfect timing for this video to come out. I'm going to be at this resort in early June. Thank you so much!
Oh yay!! You're going to have a blast.
Thanks. I'm going in a few weeks. This was the review I was looking for. The cad conversation especially
Yay!!! Have the best time ever. Can't wait to hear about it
Loved this video! I’m going to Cabo at the end of this week and I learned some useful tips from you that I hadn’t heard yet so thank you :)
Yay!! I'm so glad. Thanks for being here and commenting too :)
This just came in time!! Thank you for the detailed tour as I'm visiting the same hotel soon. Thank you!!
Woohoo! how was it?
Will be there in Feb 24. Thanks for the tour
oh yay!! you're gonna love it!
Thank you for this
You're so so so welcome Daniel
Thank you
You're so welcome!
I am glad you showed the GYM, often overlook by many
It's nice to see all aspects of the resort, isn't it? And this gym was gorgeous!! :)
When are you off to Cabo? Have the best time ever :)
ROOM TOUR ROOM TOUR!!!
You saw everything that we had ahaha! The washroom was fine and then there's the bed! No TV, no major view from our room. Plus every other video that talks about this resort online has an extensive room tour :)
For the neon party should you look nice or dress to be in the pool.
I would be prepared to get wet. So either you'll be going in the pool (and can plan accordingly) OR sometimes you'll get some bubbles/water/ wet people bumping into you. haha! If you are worried about getting something damaged when wet, I'd avoid it :) Also wear good shoes because it gets slippery quick
Thank you for your guide! Everything you showed and said was very helpful and knowledgeable. My only question is ; off resort is there any danger or risk you felt? As a tourist outside it is risky right.. but what you’ve showed made it seem like they are wonderful and kind people! (Is it maybe because your S/O is Mexican?)
Hey! Although I didn't go off the resort alone, I did go shopping on my own a few times while my boyfriend was either waiting outside or by the water. At the marina, there are a TON of tourists and people so I personally found that area very safe. I do suggest when you leave the resort to make sure you either have data (to call an uber) or just the ability to look things up/translate/call the hotel if you need more guidance. I have travelled all around Mexico and found Cabo very much like California. Perhaps the only time I would have felt lost without my boyfriend and/or worried is when in a cab/uber with a driver that doesn't speak english but then again.... everyone we encountered spoke some English. So my overall experience is everyone was very welcoming and if you even attempt to speak Spanish, they appreciate it SOOOO much! :) Hope that helps!
@@OliviaG I hope your enjoyed your trip, thank you for putting me one step closer to booking this vacation!
@@Stfuorfku For sure! You're going to love it.
Olivia, I am considering staying at the RIU PALACE BAJA CALIFORNIA, which is an "Adults Only" all-inclusive. However, I just checked rates for May 2024 and they are considerably higher (Almost $300.00 per night for a Single Adult being charged Double Occupancy )
.... than the RIU Santa Fe. QUESTION: Do you think the additional cost is worth it?? Thanks in advance.
I personally really enjoyed my time at the Riu Santa Fe so I would not have paid more to be in an Adults Only resort. The resort is huge and I think you'll be more than okay. But ultimately that's up to you. Either way you'll have a blast
Thnks. .❤. I have a query that does the speciality restaurants are included in all inclusive. Or just the buffet. And id there asian / indian food,,
No problem. Ask me anything! The speciality restaurants are INCLUDED but it's first come first served entry--- meaning you may not get in if you don't line up REALLY early. Does that make sense? :) Let me know!
Does this have all inclusive? Do you also get access to the Riu Palace restaurants on an all inclusive? Thanks
If you choose to stay at the Riu Santa Fe, it's only all inclusive for the Riu Santa Fe Hotel. You can visit the other nearby hotels but there are limitations. The rules may change but that was my experience from a few months ago :)
Are you able to go to the other Riu Hotels with the all-inclusive package?
Yes, but there were some restrictions with this particular one. Like you can go and visit but you couldn't eat over there (or something like that, I can't remember exactly). We planned to tour the others but in the end we just used their beaches and didn't go explore the resort. But if you booked via the other hotels you had all inclusive access to all 3. Just double check that online in case rules have changed. Hope that helps and have fun!
Great video! Is the resort kid friendly?
Thank you! Yes, it's very kid friendly :)
I need to know if there's shows ,how's the room cleanliness, and how to get to the main cabo Scooby-Doo cave
Shows were good, hopefully you got to see that in my video a bit haha. I would say above average for an all inclusive. Lots of interactive games before the shows too (which were so much fun!) The room was okay. Nothing to complain about (...and I am picky haha). We did have 2 nights were there was no hot water, but I think it was a fluke and not a common issue. Anything you need more within the room, they provide pretty quickly (ie extra towels/soap/etc). As for how to get around places, there are tons of help desks that can guide you to where you need to go :)
Are food and drinks free EVERYWHERE on the resort? Even in the nightclub and party area?
YES!~ And of course there are always options where you can "buy extra" aka special liquor but we never did/nor felt the need to ask :)
I'm headed there tomorrow and some what nervous because of the reviews online
It was honestly one of my top 3 ultimate vacations! Now you know what to expect. Just surrender and have fun :) Let me know how it goes xo
Omg …. I had so much fun and I’m ready to book again. This review is spot on. Even in late April it does get cold very cold in the evening. We were in building 7 which was a great location.
@@ebonyallen9499 Oh yay!! I knew you'd have a blast. I want to go back too haha! Did you end up getting into/trying out all the "speciality restaurants"?
Is this resort a CRAZY party? We don't mind a party but is it crazy? Also what about the food, very low end?
This was my first time in a long time back at an all inclusive and I personally loved the food. I have been to resorts where I just ate the same thing day in and day out but here it wasn't the case! So my personal opinion on food is that it's amazing here. All depends on your expectations though haha As for the resort being a CRAZY party- I mean there are areas where it was but that was in a particular section of the resort and overall lots of families were around and they manage the noise by cutting the parties off at the designated hours.
What building number is the party building
Hey! It's in and around Villa 9 (where I stayed) haha good luck
What other excursions did they have at the marina? I’m going in March & you said it’s better to book at the marina rather than the hotel. Please tell me the other excursions & where at the marina can I book them?
Hey!! Oh you're going to have so much fun!! Keep in mind that I went a year ago so I don't remember all the details (esp on excursions) but when you go to the hotel they will be showing you all the available excursions. It's at this point where you will know what to look for when you get to the marina....because it's exactly the same haha!
Also at the marina you wont be able to miss them. 80% of the time people will come up to you telling you about the excursions. So just ask 2-3 people and go with the best deal. Just make sure they are with a "company" so it's legit. One of the ones we booked had a office in the marina mall (but I can't remember any names at this point). Don't rush, take your time deciding and bargain.
@@OliviaG Hi girl! Loved your video .. I have questions about the excursions .. this might come across wrong but in not way do I mean it in a negative way but, .... how do you know which excursion to pick and choose from mainly based on safety? I know theres a whole bunch but how were u confident to choose one over the other .
@@hillarypham4409 hey hey!! I'm still gonna stand with my last comment from 2 months ago and encourage you to go with a "company" so it's legit VS just people on the side selling tickets. You'll be able to tell the difference with their uniforms and brochures. As for which one to pick, it's up to you. It's helpful when you go to the resort to ask around what other people have done and this way you get a first hand RECENT experience. As for safety, I hear you but I was travelling with my bf (who's Mexican) so I didn't worry about that part haha so I may not be the best person to advise on that end. I let him lead and I'm not sure what his thought process was as he was communicating in Spanish.
@@OliviaG Thank you for responding! so helpful. What was the payment process like? Did they take card or cash? USD or pesos?
Did you pay for your hotel stay in cad or used your card ?
I'm in Canada so we paid in Canadian dollars/currency :)
Is that Joe??
Is this a good place for singles?
This is primarily a family resort (if I had to categorize it) so you should look into the other 2 Riu's that are literally right next door. Santa Fe has a great party section, but outside of those parties it's quite mellow (from what I observed). If you book with the other Riu you will still have access to the party zone here at this resort too. Kind of like an all access pass. Whereas, if you book your stay at the Santa Fe then you won't have access to the other Riu's. I'm pretty sure one of them is adults only too. Worth looking into. Hope that helps!
Are there swimmable beaches nearby?
Oh gosh I wish I had a direct answer here. We stayed at the pools to swim and you can do day trips to get to a beach- but it'll cost you to get there
Food? Free
Yes the food is free and included with your hotel stay. That's why it's amazing!
Do they have don julio??????
I'm sure they do but I don't necessary drink much so I didn't ask :)
@@OliviaGlol wow that kinda defeats the point of going to an all inclusive party hotel
Riu serves the same exact food at every location smh
Exactly. We'll if it's not broken why fix it. Lol
They definitely are not the same food depending on what country you go too
That's funny but I enjoyed it. My dad went to costa rica during the same time I went to CABO (and he stayed at the RIU too) and the room layouts were pretty much the same too! haha
@@donrobinson899 yeah they def switch things up to what's local and around for food especially.
@@ryanwhite7969 LOL exactly!
