My stay at The San Luis Resort was filled with wonderful service and amenities, though some areas did need improvement. The staff was exceptionally attentive, and I truly appreciated the warm welcome I received. However, the room decor felt a bit outdated compared to the hotel’s amenities.

I found the San Luis Resort Spa & Conference Center to have beautiful grounds and a lovely view of the ocean, but my experience was marred by the high cost and some service issues. The $550 per night rate felt too steep for what was provided, especially with added fees for parking and amenities. While the pool was nice, it felt crowded and lacked shade unless you rented a cabana.

Rooms

6.0

My room was small and lacked a table for eating. I enjoyed the comfortable bed, but the bathroom was tight with minimal privacy from a sliding glass door. The fridge was too small and I had to pull it out to get it to cool properly.

Service

7.0

The staff was friendly and attentive, especially the bartender at the pool bar and the coordinator for the Villas. However, the lack of room service during our stay was disappointing, requiring me to request towels directly.

Location

9.0

The location is fantastic, just across the street from the beach with easy access to attractions like Pleasure Pier. I loved the views from my balcony, but it was pretty small.

Dining

6.0

Dining on-site had its pros and cons. I ordered food delivered to my room, which was decent, but prices at the hotel restaurants seemed inflated, especially for drinks.

Facilities

6.0

The facilities included a nice pool area, though it felt crowded. I noticed the slide was missing during my stay and the overall ambiance was a bit dated.

My stay at The San Luis Resort was really great, with a beautiful view of the Gulf and fantastic staff. Although my room had a few minor cleanliness issues, the amenities and service more than made up for it. The location was perfect, close to the beach and nearby attractions. Just a couple of hiccups during check-in, but overall, it was a nice experience.

Rooms

9.0

The room was spacious and clean upon arrival, but I noticed some peeling paint and a bit of mold around the tub. The balcony was a nice touch for enjoying the view, but it could use some attention to detail.

The facilities were well-maintained, and the pool was lovely and warm even in cooler weather. There were minor issues with the elevators being slow, though.

My stay at The San Luis Resort was a mixed bag. While the location and amenities were spot on, the service and room conditions left a lot to be desired.

The pool area was a letdown—small and frequently not the cleanest. It’s a bummer because I wanted to relax there more, but it felt crowded and dingy at times.
