The pools are beautiful and plenty of space, except the swim up bars I thought those would be in bigger pools.

food was great (at the buffets and snack bars - food at steakhouse was also good

Next, I tried the coffee bar and the pastries.

Pool bar had good drinks and great bartenders,

The pools close at 8pm and the swim up bar closed at 7:30pm.

Angel by the Infinity pool bar is awesome.

Drinks at the pool and in the bars were what was expected.

but could usually find something decent at buffet(ie Salad bar).

The Santa Fe is also where the sports bar, most of the shops and the money exchange are (bring your passport for the money exchange).

We loved staying at the All Inclusive Riu Palace Cabo San Lucas and the close proximity to the shopping and all the hot tourist bars and attractions.

We loved the tables in the pools where you could hang out, stay cool, and get drinks from the swim up bar.

They dominate pools, specialty dining (tables combined, all served together etc) and bar service.

It is only about a 30min walk to the marina from the hotel as well, where there are a vast amount of fun bars and restaurants to enjoy.

but it was easy enough to walk to one of the bars to refill our bottles).

Alfredo in the pool bar was too much fun, Astrid who served us at the shows was so sweet.

Cappuccino bar staff is another positive and gets  thumbs up.

Don’t get me wrong, the swim up bar and serving guys were lots of fun!!

but staff is so awesome we did not care spa was super but the beach massage for 40 usd was great too I tipped here - usually don’t at all inclusives- but staff so good they totally deserved it

The resort was beautiful and it's location along the beach was amazing.

Rui Palace was beautiful and right on the beach.

Good note: staff are really nice and attentive, I guess they can do just so much - the pools are really nice and a clean nice beach that is hard to get in as the currents were strong.

We were introduced to a wonderful local named Alfredo White Gloves on the beach where we bought 2 silver chains that are still in perfect shape, a beautiful silver ring and he was so great to deal with.

We asked for a partial sea view and ended up with a perfect view of the sea and Lover’s Beach.

The food, room, grounds, beach, ocean view and pools were perfect!

My husband got a GREAT massage on the beach 30 minutes for $20.

We are currently here at the hotel and I felt a need to write this review while all was fresh in my mind
First beach vacation since March 2020 and I relied on reviews and others recommendations to pick this property 
As an avid traveller with a blog following here I go 
Good

Beach front is great, lots of activities, the views of the city from the resort is spectacular

but it is beautiful to stare at while sitting in the beach infinity pool with a drink in your hand.

The views are amazing , the beach not swimable red flags everywhere ….

Enough beach chairs

Loved the coffee bar and crepe station at buffet 

Cons:
Food was not very good,

The pools were great, the views amazing, and the beach was great!

Pools were very clean..the beaches were immaculate.

Jazmin was our server for all of our breakfast and lunches.

The food and cocktails were top notch, delicious, fresh, and gourmet.

So, take your chance at the buffet and hope for the best.

The food was only ok at the upper buffet,

The food was good, and the drinks were plentiful.

The best was breakfast with an omelette station and an eggs cooked to order station.

We ate at the buffet almost every morning and night.

The Italian buffet was so delicious and they have an outdoor seating area overlooking the ocean.

Marlene was one of the breakfast/lunch buffet servers and she took the time to learn our names and remember them for the duration of our trip.

We mostly ate at the buffet and we all felt on buffet standards, it was as good as any other we’ve eaten at.

After a lengthy check in process, we quickly got ready for dinner and headed to the buffet, which closed at 10:30pm.

We loved the buffet and went to the steak restaurant twice because we all had tasty steaks and shrimp.

Then at arrival you're asked very personal (info we objected) then you get nice breakfast and boom!

We also want to thank Rocio in the lunch buffet.

The food was amazing in the buffet areas always hot and fresh.

The best part about downtown is that you can rent a private nice boat for about $150.00 an hour to take you to the Ach, Lovers, Divorce beach and whale watching or fishing .We did that and it was amazing.

Other things to do in Cabo 5/5: 
Water taxi to lover’s beach/divorce beach/el arco.

However, the resort has no control over the weather and unlike 2017, we never lost electricity for a full day and night and none of the restaurants had to close due to flooding.

but red flag warnings during our stay due to strong currents.

My flight was delayed due to weather so I was unable to make my reservation for the evening of Jan 18.

but I don’t see us ever returning due to the dangerous food situation and lack of service from the management team.

Waves are too strong and there’s been reported serious injuries due  to the waves.

They gave them the wrong room, and due to a booking error which showed only the Two adults and not the 1 child, they were charged $1800+ at the front desk at check-in (or told to get lost to another resort if not).

The beach is very well maintained and there is a lifeguard on duty to politely remind people not to swim in the ocean on rough days due to a strong current.

but I’m being literal
- The service provided by the “faces” of customer service was awful
- Due to ATC delays, our flight that was originally scheduled to arrive at 10am local time did not arrive until after 7pm local time.

I am sad to say that due to this very disappointing and consistently bitter experience, I do not believe I will be utilizing nor recommending the RIU chain in the future.

Can’t swim in the ocean due to under tow..but I believe you can go to a marina to swim…I don’t know about that yet

Secondly, our arrival was delayed by a day due to weather and cancelled flights.

but most likely due to water and humidity.

Facing the ocean the pool on the left is noisier due to pool activities and a DJ.

Least favorite was the Italian due to selection and flavor.

The only downfall was that they didn’t have any room service due to covid at the time.

The beach is difficult to walk on due to steepness and the fact that the sand doesn’t pack.

First of all, due to “COViD” the hotel is operating at 50% capacity, or so they say.

We went to dinner about 7 all specialty restaurants were closed so we went to buffet and got met by I'm assuming a manager and official looking people telling us they were closing at 715 due to hurricane coming in 2 hours.

even though we had a transfer, we had to change the day due to flight cancellation and we’re told too bad not their problem.

Also they are still advertising for all these pool parties and disco’s which are not taking place due to Covid.

When we arrived at the hotel their wi-fi was not working and told us they would charge us $500 plus tax for changing our fourth person's name.

If you wanted transportation you had to pay.

Overall for what you pay and the high rating of this resort the food and beverages were not available.

Location- good
Food and drinks-good
Room (specifically towels)- sketchy towels including stained towels; hard to find face cloth

Front desk- We stayed for 14 nights and paid for the stay on day 1.

The hotel was going to take the money we paid for a junior suite and then put us in a less expensive room.

My transportation fee should of been refunded since it was all together with Jetski rentals.

They used cheap alcohol and either watered down or in small amounts.

After staying ther two days,  we just paid to just move to the Riu Cabo San Lucas and lose money on the other vacation and this one was much better.

The front desk did not mention anything about testing, we had to ask and then we were asked to pay for our tests, and then the day of the test we were shuffled in like cattle.

The price which we paid for all-inclusive was much less than we would have paid at comparable hotel resorts in the Cabo area.

Food/alcohol (2.5 out of 5)
The food was average and the wine they served at each of the restaurants are really cheap wine and not good :(.

There are no swimmable beaches - waves are rough with rip tides.

Overall I would not rate this resort higher than what I have.

I found the excursions to go anywhere or do anything very expensive.

Sometime it is accounted for in the booking price -- sometimes it is not!

When at the hotel you can get them to order something from the pharmacy it only costs $5.

So make sure you bring enough - buying them on-site is expensive ($5 each).

We arrived Sunday and they gaves us a coupon for the covid test we lost them and now eventhought they keep a copy they will not give us one and we'll have to pay for it.

I asked the front desk and it just never came Would stay here again and drink more tequila Room service was a little off at times didn’t bring what we ordered probably language barrier

Asked for late checkout when i booked  and when got there  was told had to be out of room at 12 asked to see the manager 

I requested to see the Manager and they told me it will be $84 USD extra night to make that change .

I refused to accept this on principle alone and asked the agency to follow-up.

Check out time is 11 and when we asked to delay our check out to 2:00 so we can recover from our food poisoning, we were passed along from one person to the next until finally someone from guest relations authorized us to stay without apology.

however they only stocked the fridge when you asked for it.

as we were getting ready to go to reception to request a new room, we got an email advising that construction needed to be done in our room and we would get a room upgrade.

- [ ] Check in: you get what is available at time of check in vs what is requested when booking is done.

However, when I asked the Front Desk manager (VANYA) about the ordeal, why they were promised an 11 AM room change

Anyway I had requested a king size bed, and I did get that!

but again, they are strict about handing out 1 bottle per person and you must walk to the shack with everyone requesting a water.

On our last night, I made sure to make dinner reservations offsite because I did not want yet another meal, especially on my birthday, to be ruined by the hotel staff
- We received contradictory information from staff depending on who we asked.

Music from night performances were loud and sometimes lasted past 11pm (bring ear plugs)

Not enough room towels (got more from maid cart)

Golf bag got lost from airline, arrived at 9pm, when asked at front desk, they checked and said they didn’t have it and no golf bags were delivered.

When I asked at the front desk the worker so utterly RUDE.

If you asked they would give you smirnoff or absolute.

I asked them to leave us some of the larger ones and they wouldn't.

Haven’t heard back from anyone about a refund or anything as I requested.

We had some trepidations staying at the RIU Palace since there were more than a few negative reviews about the staff being surly, requests being ignored, all-inclusive food being bland to terrible, watered-down drinks, and the safety of one's personal property.

When we asked to switch rooms,  they said some cold air is coming so basically it is just up to us to decide if we wanna downgrade further into another room.

Food selections and restaurants were terrific.

Good food and drinks staff is outstanding!

My children witness two girls having alcohol poising.

Food was good, nothing special, typical resort food.

I’ll start with the food review and go from there.

And the restaurants on property offered great variety for nightly dinners.

The food at Rui was good, lots of variety,  Entertainment was very good every night.

When sitting outside, it is hard to enjoy your meal fighting off flies every 2 seconds .

but did not enjoy the Kristal restaurant as the rice was very undercooked) - staff amazing and there were lots of things to see and do!

My assessment, clean rooms at the Riu, decent food,

The food was great - we enjoyed the steakhouse and the Italian a la cartes.

The upstairs bar was so nice and the pool food was amazing.

Staff was great, variety of food is great, the parties that they have are off the chain!

Hotel Riu Palace Cabo San Lucas

request

price

restaurant

beach

We walked to the beach, a mall and did a boating activity out to the arch.

It would be nice to have access to a beach nearby when we stay at the Tesoro hotel.

It was close to restaurants, split almost in the middle of the beaches.

If you have marina view there is a firework display about 930pm for a few minutes.

although usually we get a condo in the beach or stay at a all inclusive like RIU.

We stayed on the 5th floor in a marina view room.

If you want a beach experience, take a $9.00 taxi or walk.

The location was on point, right in the heart of Los Cabos - near shops, clubs and restaurants, easy access to all of our tours and the marina views were amazing! !

15 minute walk to the beach, restaurants right out the door.

Nice hotel in the marina area with a very good breakfast.

We booked a Junior Suite so that we could have a balcony and a marina view.

but stay on the marina side, it’s well worth the extra money.

Thinking of venturing outside the resort, to visit one of the beautiful beaches or get a taste of the night life?

And of couse the views from my room are fabulous of marina and bay!

I would especially like to complement front desk manager Barbara Ruiz.

Room 355, standard room with a great marina view! 3.

The Hotel Tesoro Los Cabos is near these landmarks: El Arco de Cabo San Lucas, San Jose del Cabo main square, Playa Grande, Chileno Beach, Playa Palmilla (Palmilla Beach), Playa Grande, Playa Grande, Medano Beach, Playa Grande, Marina Cabo San Lucas, Ivan Guaderrama Art Gallery, Playa del Amor, Mt.

breakfast was great, can’t wait to go back.

Hotel was great, the breakfast was one of the highlights for us, along with the rooftop pool and bar!

The lighthouse restaurant has a really great breakfast that was included in our hotel price.

The service was amazing, the breakfast, which goes from 7:00 am to noon is delicious.

Place was excellent/ nice view/ great service/ great location and the Mexican buffet was the best .

Free breakfast was fresh, custom omelettes, hot cakes, french toast, fruit, chilaquiles, etc.

($60 for the adults and $30 for our oldest and youngest was free) We came for breakfast (buffet) and got 2 items per person off the menu throughout the day as well as unlimited drinks while we were there.

Suggest you go to the roof restaurant in the morning as they have a cook to order egg and omelette station.

The breakfast buffet was included and it was exceptional!

The breakfast was awesome and open till noon!

Breakfast at the buffet was delicious and view was gorgeous.

Breakfast buffet was the best all inclusive breakfast.

Price, Location, and Breakfast make it a nice place to stay.

For my first time in Mexico in Cabo I love it, everything about it, the hotel Tesoro was great love it the breakfast was very good, The drinks were amazing… & the view of my room was beautiful,,, very friendly everyone.

The buffet and the other restaurant is good
But our praise goes to Fidel , he is an amazing staff member

The breakfast that is included with stay was awesome, Oswoldo was our waiter in the morning and he is a very good waiter.

Close to the Marina are the famous tourist attractions, Cabo Wabo, El Squid Row, The Giggling Marlin as well as the natural attractions like the ocean, the fishing, the natural rock formations, Lover's Beach, and Divorce Beach.

Water taxi will take you out to the Arch and pass by many rock formations aswell as Lovers Beach (Sea of Cortez side), and Divorce Beach (Pacific Ocean side).

We have positives and negatives about the staff, 2 of the guys serving drinks were great, Pelipe and Alfredo were amazing, we cannot fault them.

The buffet offers personalized omelettes and a variety of fruits, yogurts drinks, etc.

If you want the best drinks at the pool show tip love to Fidel and the crew

There is always a bit of worry when you do an all inclusive that the quality of the food and drink would be average at best,

Great service, great drinks and great music.

The pools and bar area are nice, the drinks too are always good.

Fidel and Alfredo, Narciso are very helpful as well and did a great job on drink and food service.

I enjoyed pool area, hot tubs and drinks from bar.

Unlimited non and alcoholic drinks and 2 choices of food from Sky Pool menu.

Lots of good food and drinks in every direction.

Beautiful pool area with great service for drinks and snacks.

Alexis at the bar in the main lobby, this young man has a great memory on special drinks you like and has great conversation!

How delicious is the gastronomy of the La Vista restaurant in the pool area, what impressive drinks, and above all the great service of the very helpful waiters, they made my stay an adventure reminding me of typical Mexican food and drinks, thank you for your service Fidel, Pablo and Felipe thanks guys

Great drinks, thoughtful, great conversation and made our stay very memorable.

We often stopped for an afternoon drink or night cap.

What fun they were, with excellent drinks, service & food.

I asked when reserving if they had elevators,

Also, the room we were given, while nice was maximally far from the elevators, and there was a steep narrow staircase to it.

the elevators are quite old and they rattle all the way going up or down.

Our room was up stairs once you exited the elevator so again, ask if you have issues taking your luggage up and down a couple of flights of stairs. The downside is they offer all of these discounts to tickets for surrounding town tours if you "tour the property."

The resort already uses it for the use of the elevator and rooms, I’m sure it could be used for everything.

We had concerns of noise from the use of the elevator,

2.Went to the pool area at 830 pm and was approached by the 🚨 telling the guest get out because the whirlpool/pool closes at 9pm.I forgot you can't have anyone in your room after 8 pm because the police guard the elevator  and a big sign is also there.

They did not work to open our room door nor did they work on the elevator.

You will also likely get lost because of the configurations of the hotel I had to change elevators to get to my room.

Anyone could walk right up to an elevator.

Beautiful 
           Views of the marina

Cons: No heater in rooms, or at least for ours anyway {probably wouldn't have been so bad if i wasn't getting over the flu} ; staff felt like sales ppl; felt like we had to race to the elevator every time to be safe from the staff trying to sell us more stuff;  it seemed like they had alot of outside visitors esp in the pool area.

After negotiating which elevator to which floor to get you to the next building was a bit confusing.

Used a staff elevator and we got noticed immediately.

The 10 minute walk(except elevator area) was white painted stucco that looked more like cave.

Security stopped us at the elevator b/c we were carrying beer to take up to our room - nobody told us you aren't "allowed". Ridiculous.

The other one doesn't - and it felt a bit unsafe, since anyone can get in and go up the elevator.

however be aware it, and several others are accessed by 2 flights of stairs to the equivalent of the 7th floor from the 5th floor, which is the highest floor serviced by the elevators.

Great for fishing trips as it is right on the marina and close to the downtown district.

This hotel is located in the heart of the marina of Cabo San Lucas.

Nice view of the marina and we’d come again for close pool activity day.

The hotel si located at La Marina so you can enjoy an amazing sunset.

The walk around the harbor was also very nice.

Loved my view of the marina, from my terrace.

This room is kept immaculate and the balcony facing marina truly enjoyable.

The view from my room, overlooking the marina, was picture perfect.

The hotel is beautiful and close to everything you would love to see in Cabo at the marina.
