The property was great. The folks who work there are kind and friendly. Everyone was so helpful. The location of our room made a difference (I wouldn’t want to have my room on the side that the Santa Fe is on). It was nice having access to the other sister properties.

Great and beautiful Resort

We had an amazing time at Riu Baja. The cleaning is amazing. The only disappointed is when we went to have dinner at the sister Riu Palace on their steak house. We got there at 6.50pm and they didn’t tell us that the Riu Baja guess is just allound at their buffet. The service just let us waiting until 8.45pm and than he told us that we are not allound to eat there. So rude!! He end it up let us in, but we felt really discriminated! Really need to be address. Other than that horrible experience, everything was great!

Hotel room could be cleaner. I saw a stained pillow like a pen mark. I hold high standards when it comes to cleaning. Floor level rooms are the ones with a little bugs. I saw cockroaches inside the complex at night, not in the room. Overall great
