Hotel Riu Santa Fe - All Inclusive
10/10 Excellent
"I stay there almost 5 days. Everything was good but the problem was for the check-in line. I almost waited 2 hour and 30 minutes that was crazy. They should work on the staff or do something for online check-in. Everything overall was good I enjoyed it and celebrated my birthday."

Diego at the concierge was very helpful. He made the stay extra comfortable and constantly checking to make sure we had everything we needed.
Axel and Kenia were helpful and friendly at the coffee house.
The gym was very clean.. we took classes with Nelson and Orlando.
The servers at the several restaurants were nice and checked every time about allergies like Jose, Christian to name a few were great.
