Hi! Thanks for the feedback 😊 they serve draft beer and beer cans at the bar, depending on availability. You will also have cans in your mini fridge in your room. Not too sure on the difference between ocean front/view. One of them might have a partial ocean view as opposed to full ocean view. The resort is shaped like a horseshoe, so the ocean view/front rooms will be a the very ends of the horseshoe facing the beach.

I'm watching this in March 2021, and want to say thank you! This is a wonderfully detailed video; easy to watch, not jerky, very informative and helpful for someone like me who gets a little nervous traveling to a new place. A question, you said the water is not for swimming, but would you be able to go in to just your knees or waist? And as for the lounges by the pool or under the shade on the beach, do the staff monitor these at all? I know on a cruise they say that you can (after a few hours of non use) give the holding towels to a staff member and use the loungers. Also, you're showing the pool/beach early in the morning; wondering how crowded it gets mid-day? We're planning an October trip, and just seeing this video makes me want to go now. Subscribing and off to view more videos!
@WherewegoingNext 3 жыл бұрын
You're very welcome !! :) Thank you for the kind words! You can dip your feet/knees in. Even with that, as the waves go back out into the sea, you can feel a strong current on your legs. From what we observed, the staff do not monitor the towels. It's more of a first come, first serve kinda deal unfortunately. With that said, we never went without a spot. In terms of crowding, they have 4 pools which spreads people out nicely. The pool over by the steps is usually the most crowded as people like to socialize at that one. The other pools are more low key. Thank you for the subscribe!!!! Much appreciated!! Have fun on your trip in October, let us know how it went!

How is the food and entertainment at Baja? Is there something to do every night? 2. From the review photos, are the bed and CSL close together? And not separated? 3. Are there a lot of activities to do such as paddle board/kayak etc? Sorry if you answered these questions in the video. It’s a lot to take in and also just admiring the views lol Thank you so much!

Awesome place to spend your birthday mate! 1. Food is excellent, lots of selection. We did a buffet tour too, check that out to see selections. Yes there is always some entertainment in the evening at Baja. Sometimes it’s interactive, others times it’s just performers. Nothing crazy, but it’ll keep you busy. 2. Sorry I’m not sure what you mean by beds. Do you mean are they spaced out in the room? Are you looking for more space? 3. There’s certainly activities on shore, but the water activities are limited. This is because the waves and undertow are dangerous, so they recommend not swimming in front of the hotels. There’s a lagoon about 20 min walk to the right of the hotels (if you’re looking at the water). You’re welcome! Hope you enjoy !!!

Hi, my husband and I want to go to Los Cabos for our first anniversary and I was wondering which RIU do you recommend. Which one has the coolest activity’s, the best food, the better rooms ?
@WherewegoingNext 3 жыл бұрын
Awesome - congrats on your anniversary! You'll be fine in choosing either Palace (Baja California or Cabo San Lucas). Most of the rooms at Cabo San Lucas have an oceanview - whereas baja california you can get stuck looking out Santa Fe. Baja only has a handful of oceanview rooms. Both are comparable in terms of activities and food - so you'll be safe in that regard! We noticed the pools are heated at Baja California - much cooler at San Lucas. Either way - you're going to have a great time! :) :D Did you look into any excursions??

Where we going Next? No we haven’t, It would be our first time in Los Cabos, and I want to see the famous El Arco, and the turquoise blue sea, any recommendations? we are only staying 2 night (unfortunately).
@WherewegoingNext 3 жыл бұрын
If you’re just staying for a short time, leave the excursions for another time. You do want to relax after all. Just hire a water taxi to take you out to lovers beach and you’ll be able to enjoy the arch. Just an FYI, they can’t pull to shore, so you have to jump out and swim. It’s not a long swim at all, but wanted to mention that.

Hello! thanks for the tour! staying here next month :) I wanted to know if it was easy accessing the other pools at the Riu Palace and Santa Fe? I believe that if I stay at the Baja, I am able to access the other Riu hotel pools. Also, if we do have access to those other pools, are there any issues with ordering drinks and getting some snacks? Thanks!
@WherewegoingNext 3 жыл бұрын
Sorry I'm replying so late! You're right, if you stay at the RIU Baja, you can access the other two resort pools and order drinks/snacks. No limitations. If you stay at Santa Fe, you're only able to stay at Santa Fe. Hope that still helps! :D

@WherewegoingNext 3 жыл бұрын
It’s still really nice. Doesn’t take away from the exp. you have to be ready for some guests not following the guidelines tho. Masks are required indoors and at buffets. Outdoors, they’re required if you’re not able to socially distance, it trust me, there’s lots of space. Buffets are cafeteria style, servers will get you your food when you tell them what you want. Just point and they’ll load it up. Employees are on a 24/7 mask policy, and they stick to it to a T. Resort is selling well under capacity to ensure guests aren’t crammed in. Tables at buffets are sanitized after each use. Hand sanitizer is everrryyyyywhere. Go for sure, you won’t be disappointed. I’ll be making a specific Covid video in the next few weeks. Sub and you’ll be notified.

What would you recommend?
@WherewegoingNext 2 жыл бұрын
Yeah if you’re looking for nightlife, the RIU Palaces don’t have much in the evening. The Santa Fe is right next door.. maybe a 5-10 minute walk depending where you’re room is. If you want better rooms and more quiet during the day, we recommend the RIU palaces and you can visit Santa Fe anytime you want - but not vice versa.
