The San Luis Resort, Spa & Conference Center

10/10 Excellent
"This hotel is really a treat with modern, exciting, and beautiful amenities. Yet it is casual enough to feel comfortable. The staff is accommodating, sincere, but really let the guest remain the focus. In late September, it was not crowded, so the pool was very accessible. The food at the Grotto was good and affordable. The Bananas Fosters pancake and other breakfast meals were very good. The beach across the street was nice, walkable and seemed safe. Location is close to many things. I loved having the balcony overlooking the beach and pool. I don’t think this hotel can be any better."
