View is the best part. Owners need to do repairs/upgrade—bathroom, balcony furniture, adjust wine cooler placement, add dead bolt to front door and fix locks on balcony door, chipped glass on one night stand, fix lamp on night stand, fix non-working electrical outlets. Extra pillows dirty; coffee pot very dirty. Appliances worked fine. Easy to work with VRBO office.

Great location

The San Luis resort is beautiful! It was great ro be able to stay there and still have a kitchen and living room. Parking was super easy too with an assigned space in the garage. The view was also unbeatable! Definitely recommend staying here.

Ocean view gorgeous

Ease of renting property was great, staff pleasant, courteous and attentive. Condo had the perfect view, could have been cleaner and stocked better, nice to have all the amenities right at the resort so we never had to leave. Will consider returning in the future.

Beachy Getaway

Loved the location & all the amenities of the San Luis resort. Great balconies (yes 2) & views. It’s obviously an older unit, but in decent shape. My two complaints are: (1) dirty/filthy floors & (2) no water pressure in shower.

Although we love staying at the St. Louis condos, this one needs quite a bit of help. Here’s what I let the rental company know. - Garbage disposal does not work- Light in bathroom broken - could not fix but put a temporary light small in so we had a "little light"-Lamp bedroom (on right side) broken we went out and bought a new lightbulb, thinking it was just a lightbulb. The actual lamp is not working. Knob is broken -stove needs repair... back leg is off or broken so every time you try to cook something the whole stove shakes / moves / tilts -

Beautiful

Great location. Loved waking up to the ocean everyday. Blackout curtains made for great resting and the bed was very comfortable. The resort makes everything easy to walk to. It would have been nice to have broom or mop. We stayed for a week and the floor got pretty dirty. The shower also has mold in it but that’s understandable with the humid temps. Overall great stay.

Save yourself the trouble...look elsewhere!

We were very excited to stay at this property over Spring Break. Unfortunately it left much to be desired. I'll start with the positives: 1) View of water is fantastic 2) Would be good for 2 people, no kids 3) Access to amenities was great and the pool is very nice 4) well stocked kitchen tools - although we had to hand wash everything before using. Now our challenges which we gave the management company ample time and information to address, which unfortunately they did not address well enough to make up for the investment we made. 1) Opened sofa bed to find urine on the mattress cover. We washed it, put it back on only to find that the bed was broken. Kids had to sleep on the tile floor the first night. They provided blow up mattresses the following nights. 2) The curtain rods were broken so sun came in at sunrise every morning, couldn't sleep past 7am. Maintenance was called but they did not fix them. 3) Dishes were LITERALLY FILTHY and still had gobs of food on them because we discovered later the dishwasher doesn't work and someone put them away dirty. Had to wash all dishes before and after using them by hand. 4) Here's my favorite, although they gave us 2 towels (there were 4 of us) and supposedly clean sheets, the place had not been cleaned. AT ALL. We found 2 USED maxi pads, one of which was in the living room on the coffee table. In addition, we found 4 dirty socks, a dirty t-shirt, a dirty sweatshirt and an old toothbrush lying around. The floors, windows and counters were not cleaned and if someone was willing to leave a dirty maxipad, I can't imagine they were the cleanest people to begin with. We went and bought supplies to clean it ourselves...always fun on vacation. 5) Some of the drawers, lights and outlet fixtures didn't work. 6) The fire alarm and intercom system went off 5 times while we were there and the water main got shut off so we had no working water (including the toliets) for a day. In conclusion, I held out hope that the management company (Ryson) would make it right, but they did not. This was our first time staying at a VRBO and unfortunately will be our last. I recommend the San Luis itself, just make sure it isn't managed by Ryson!

Thank you for your review, and we are disappointed to hear that we fell short of providing a 5-star stay. We appreciate your feedback, and it has been forwarded to the appropriate department to be reviewed and addressed. If a Ryson manager has not already, we will be reaching out to you to go over your concerns and to see if there's anything else we could have done.

Dirty and old

The view was beautiful of the beach, but the condo is VERY dated and in poor condition. Water spots on the ceiling, holes in drywall, just really old and not maintained well at all. Lots of dust in the condo when we checked in and the heat didn’t work. Manager got the heat fixed but unable to get cleaning done while we were out of the condo. We won’t book this place again.

Hi, Ed! I wanted to reach out and thank you for taking the time to leave this feedback. We always hope to leave our guests with a first-class impression, but unfortunately, we missed the mark on this go-round. But we're committed to making all paths straight, and we'll be sure to conduct more thorough inspections before check-in moving forward. Thanks again for staying with us.
