The San Luis Resort was luxury at its best. We were amazed that the resort had a room available for the Lone Star Rally as a walk in. Everywhere else wanted a 2 night minimum and more $$ a night. We were very happy with the courtesy of all its employees. The H2O swim up bar is awesome (the water... more

Galveston, Texas We traveled by car on September 6 – 9 from San Antonio. It was a wonderful trip. San Luis Resort: It was very clean, the staff was very courteous, and the pool was clean and fun. There was a swim-up bar, an adult’s only area and also a slide for the children. Restaurants: First stop and to meet... more

I do really enjoy this hotel, but unfortunately there is NO disabled persons parking in the front of the hotel. While the services in itself are very good, they lack in accessablity in the very front for a person with a disablity to park thier vehicle. Valet parking is only in the very front & thier staff were very rude.... more

To say we were dissappointed with the San Luis would be an understatement. I have stayed at Best Westerns that had nicer accomodations than the San Luis. The bathroom was not clean (in fact, there was a dirty washcloth from the previous female occupant (at least I assume it was a female occupant as the washcloth had foundation all over... more

San Luis – Great getaway. The wife and I went to San Luis as a last minute weekend get-away for Labor day weekend. We went there at the insistence of my wife in lieu of our cancelled Vegas trip. I was kind of rolling my eyes as we drove down from Houston as I was not happy about not being... more

For years, my family and I had looked at the San Luis from afar, and admired it, on our trips to Galveston. But, we always stayed elsewhere,due to the cost. This year, we decided to spend the $$ and enjoy ourselves---but, before deciding to stay at the San Luis, we came to this website to see the reviews, and,boy, we... more

We have been coming to Galveston since we were kids (many years ago), stayed in all of the major hotels here, and are very impressed with this hotel. The hotel standards have been low for Galveston but this is the exception. This hotel has been beautifully renovated. Our room was decorated very nicely, staff was friendly, lobby lovely, and the... more

Very Nice Property Monday through Thursday - The week-ends beware the pool becomes incredibly packed and crowed that I felt safety was an issue. I discovered after returning home that the San Luis sales pool memberships to Galvestion residents. In other words folks just walk off the streets and use the pool and there never seemed to be security around... more

We wanted a hotel right on the beach for a relaxing vacation, and that is exactly what we got. Our room was not ready when we arrived, so they upgraded us to a king suite for no extra charge. The room was spacious and very clean. The view from the balcony was great ( I would ask for floor 7... more

This is the 2nd year in a row where the H20 Pool Bar over charged my credit card for drinks. Neither the bar manager or hotle would even return my calls or would say they would investigate and call back but never did. There really should be an agency to investigate these practices. more
