    Great resort!

    We stayed for 6 days and had an amazing time! The food was delicious, the employee's were all very friendly, a little bit of a language barrier but still could chat. Rooms were beautiful, the only thing I have to say is that the beds weren’t comfortable. Other than that, we’ll be back!!

    First time experience

    It was my wife and I first time to Cabo and we decided to stay at Riu Baja California since it was adults only inclusive, but still access to their other resorts. They went above and beyond our expectations. The food was great and there were a plethora of options to choose from for meals no matter the time of day. The entertainment was excellent since every night there was an event happening. The staff was very friendly and attentive. We really enjoyed ourselves and cannot wait to go back.
