This property was perfect for our short get away. The condo had everything we needed (except a washer/dryer). The view was wonderful and the amenities at the hotel were perfect. You can't beat a pool area where you can see the beach across the street. We have a wonderful stay.

We had a wonderful experience at the The San Luis Resort. The property was clean, well-maintained, and offered excellent amenities. The staff, especially in the pool area, were amazing—friendly, attentive, and genuinely hospitable throughout our stay.The rental unit we stayed in was beautiful, spotless, and very well cared for. We were extremely pleased with our overall experience and would not hesitate to return in the future. We highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway.

San Luis Condo

I’m giving this condo 4 stars. The condo itself was nice, clean, well-equipped, and in a great location. There were a few minor wear-and-tear issues, but that’s to be expected in an older building and did not impact our stay. The biggest drawback for us was the laundry situation. This is the first condo we’ve stayed in that did not have an in-unit washer and dryer. The listing does mention that laundry facilities are available down the hall near the elevators, which is fine. However, what it doesn’t mention is that the machines require quarters. I believe this information should be included in the check-in or property information so guests can come prepared. We stayed for six nights with a family of six, and that’s a long time without access to laundry, fresh towels, or linens. The machines cost $3 per load, and I ended up doing two loads of laundry almost every day. If you’re staying for a short trip and bringing everything you need, this may not be an issue. For larger families or longer stays, it’s definitely something to consider. Another issue was the door lock. The keypad entry never worked during our stay, even after management attempted to reset it. As a result, we only had one working key for six people. Someone always had to be available to let others in and out, which became inconvenient. We considered having an extra key made ourselves just to make things easier. Overall, we enjoyed the condo, and the location was excellent. However, because of the laundry situation and the ongoing door lock issue, I would likely choose a different property for a future family vacation.
Response from VrboOwner on 26 June 2026
Thanks for taking the time to share your honest feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the condo, found it clean and well-equipped, and appreciated the excellent location. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the laundry setup and the door lock issue during your stay. We always strive to provide clear and transparent information in our listing and booking materials, including details about the amenities available at the property. While this home doesn't have an in-unit washer and dryer, we understand that relying on the building's coin-operated laundry facilities can be less convenient, especially for a larger family staying for an extended period and hoping to take care of laundry before departure. We also comprehend how frustrating it must have been to deal with the keypad malfunction and have access limited to a single key. While we're glad our local team was able to assist during your stay, we're sorry that the issue was not fully resolved and impacted your overall experience. Your feedback is greatly appreciated and helps us identify opportunities to improve both our communication and the guest experience. We regret that we fell short of your expectations on this occasion. We hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a much smoother and more comfortable experience in the future.
