Cabo San Lucas , Medano Beach 4-Star Deluxe Rating
A Vibrant All-Inclusive Resort & Spa on Medano Beach
Cabo has earned its reputation of being a 24-hour town, with its beaches, clubs, restaurants and nightlife being able to match a party-goer’s happiest appetites. Whether you want extended opportunities to play under the sun or the moon, or simply want to dedicate your Los Cabos time to serious relaxation, you don’t even have to go into Cabo - make your stay simple and sweet at the Riu Santa Fe.
Sister resort to the adjacent Riu Palace, the Santa Fe presents the prettiest beachside package a vacationer could desire. The resort’s first-class facilities include specialty restaurants, bars, a discotheque, and a mini-club with daily activities, all perched at the edge of one of Cabo’s most beautiful beaches. If you’re the sort who likes to play hard, there’s a gymnasium, tennis courts, sauna and jacuzzi. And the Riu Santa Fe’s all-inclusive package provides you with all your meals at your choice of resort restaurants, as well as 24-hour offerings of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, plus snacks.
Nightly entertainment includes live music, variety shows and RIU theme shows, and there’s a daily entertainment program for the kids. Kids even have their own pool, but don’t be jealous - there are two pools for you. There are garden- or ocean-view rooms among its 1,190 room choices, and all of them are comfortably appealing. Despite all this, if you just have to go into Cabo anyway, it’s just a couple of miles away.

Property Location
About the Area: Medano Beach
The beloved beachfront of Cabo San Lucas, Medano is an energetic blend of spectacular beach, beautifully azure swimmable waters on the main beach area, activities and of course people. Hot beach clubs, beautiful resorts and fun restaurants line the beach. Hang out at the Mango Deck, Billygan’s Island or The Office where you can enjoy happy hour with your toes in the sand. The gentle waters of the Bay are a beautiful backdrop for kayaking, jet skiing and parasailing. While soaking in the sun on the beach, you’ll encounter a host of local hawkers selling anything from jewelry to chewing gum. If you’re interested, bargaining is expected; if not, ignore them. If you’re looking for a hot mix of action and natural beauty, Medano is the place to be. Depending on where you’re staying on Medano Beach, you’re either just a short cab ride or walk to downtown. Note that the further you get from the Marina, the water can become rougher and may be unsuitable for swimming (to the northeast.)
