Elegant, polished, and full of sunlight, this newly renovated 400-square-foot studio apartment at the San Luis Condominiums and Resort Hotel offers gorgeous, unobstructed views of the Gulf of Mexico and enviable access to incredible resort amenities. At this luxury Gulf-front property, which sits right across from Galveston's famous sandy beach, you'll be treated to wonderful facilities that include a wait-staff attended pool with a swim-up bar, a hot tub, cabanas with pool-side dining, and so much more.

Begin each morning with a workout in the resort fitness center, a game of tennis with your loved ones, or a long walk on the beach only 100 yards away. Return to unwind in the comfort of central AC, kick back with a good book on your Gulf-facing balcony, and enjoy the gas grills, lounge chairs, and firepits placed throughout the resort grounds. If you're in the mood for a snack, your kitchenette is equipped with a sink, mini-fridge, microwave, coffee maker, and toaster (no stove, oven, or dishwasher).

Your vacation home is located on the sixth floor of the San Luis Resort, a luxe Gulf-front property located right on Galveston's seawall. You'll be just a few steps from the resort spa, where you can pamper yourself with a facial, a massage, or a pedicure, as well as on-site restaurants that include Grotto Ristorante, The Steakhouse, and Blakes Bistro. If you choose to explore beyond the resort grounds, you can easily spend a day at Moody Gardens and Schlitterbahn Waterpark (three miles west), take a two-mile stroll up to the Historic Pleasure Pier, or walk back through time in Galveston's beautiful Strand and East End Historic Districts.

Family Getaway

The place smelled clean. You can tell that it was just cleaned. The view was very nice and all the hotel amenities are a plus. The water took time to get warm but we knew ahead of time. It was not an issue for us. Plenty of hot water. The only item is the pillows smelled dirty. They need replaced.

Beautiful ocean view

Ocean view was great. Details in condo not so great… Shower head is rusty, floor was sticky, towels very thin not plush. Condo building is very “dated” in contrast to the San Luis resort building and surroundings which are updated beautifully and amenities were excellent.

Nice stay at San Luis Condo

We had a great time. The condo is very small. For a couple it is ok. Nice view, you have access to all of the San Luis Hotel Ammenitites which makes it a great expereince. We did have a problem with the combination lock. We called Vacasa on Sunday and they did assist us right away.

Gorgeous View Great Amenities

The room had an amazing view of the ocean and the amenities available at the hotel next door were top notch! If a problem arose the management company was very quick to respond. There were a couple of things but nothing that needed urgent attention. The room would really only comfortably house 2 in my opinion but it was perfect for my husband and I. The check in and check out process was easy. We enjoyed being within walking distance to nice restaurants, the luxurious spa and the beautiful pool. The beach is an easy walk across the street. We will definitely return if it’s just the 2 of us in Galveston again.

Very secure

A little issue of trying to remember the code to get into the unit but feel that we were very secure. Not any directions for the tv. Bed was great, need more pillows. The bed appeared to be a type of mattress that inclined but no remote to operate it. Otherwise we greatly enjoyed our stay and would be definitely coming back to this unit if available

Anniversary Trip

We love this property and the easy access to the beach and where it is located in Galveston. However, our trip was cut too soon because the building lost power on our first night. We were compansated for our second night but not for first. There are added fees but we didn’t even get 24 hours nor a full 4pm-10am with decent accommodations due to the lack of basic electricity. We did receive prompt messages and option to relocate. We didn’t want to relocate because we wanted to stay at San Luis not the other location.

Worn and Dingy

The view is great! At checkin we weren’t given the access code prior to our stay. The place smelt like smoke. The place looked unkept. The bedding was a very thin, spotted and no extra blanket or pillows were offered (we had 2). The towel rack was barely hanging on the wall. I think there was once a wall mirror but it was removed without removing the wall hardware. I struggled with the shower to get water flowing. Bring your own coffee, there is none. I highly recommend booking at the hotel. This place needs a renovation and a good cleaning. It is not what I expected booking at a high-end hotel.

Better staying at the hotel itself

The instructions were very vague and confusing and my friend and I can usually figure out everything. A man that worked there helped us and said it happens all the time. The space is half the size of their hotel rooms. Nothing condo about it. At least the hotel rooms have some coffee and ice machines. Neither were available. We found a dirty bucket and put a trash bag in and went to the hotel side for ice. The hotel people were super nice and have regular complaints similar to ours. And we never complain! We tried to reach the property. It’s a management company so mostly automated. When the fridge wasn’t working they said it takes 24 hours to cool. Each question had a different person with no idea of previous questions. We finally stopped asking. Of course the San Luis part was amazing! This room has less than the hotel room and should not be called a condo. Pictures are deceiving. We will be back to the hotel but not to this property. Save money and just stay at the hotel. Much much easier! Wanted to be honest!
