The pools include a freshwater infinity pool with jacuzzis and an outdoor pool with a swim-up bar. The Splash Water World slides are part of the package, the RIU Land kids' club keeps younger guests busy, and RIU Fit and the gym cover those who like to train. A spa and wellness centre is on site, and an entertainment programme runs through the day with RIU Party nights in the evening.
Rooms start with the Standard Double with a king bed, 30 to 32 square metres, with a sea-view version. Junior suites measure 33 square metres, with garden, partial sea or sea views and connecting rooms for families. Adults can choose a Junior Suite Swim-Up with a private pool, and the Suite Jacuzzi with sea view is 67 square metres with a whirlpool on the terrace and a hydromassage bathtub inside.
Seven restaurants cover the range. Mar de Cortes is the main buffet, with live cooking and three themed nights a week. San Jose is Italian, Misaki is Japanese, Krystal serves fusion cooking, and La Coyota is the Mexican restaurant, all a la carte at dinner. El Medano is a lunch buffet that becomes a steakhouse in the evening, with a terrace. Pepe's Food is the grill by day. Seven bars cover the rest.
It suits families who want a Cabo base with a kids' club and a water park, and couples who book the swim-up suites.
