Hotel Riu Santa Fe - All Inclusive
Our room was clean and kept up daily. Our mini fridge was stocked daily. The food at the restaurants and buffets was great. Lots of options for us and our daughter. Pool areas were great but it was busy so it was hard to find lounge chairs. People would get up at 6-7am to put their towels on chairs ...

Royal Solaris Los Cabos & Spa - All Inclusive
All the staff at this facility were very friendly, courteous, and the property was very clean and maintained. The rooms are alittle noisy, thin walls, I think. We could hear guests next door and out in the halls.
