Best rooms for VIP or adults-only stays
Club Ten is the resort's 10th-floor adults-only VIP accommodations category rather than a specific room name in the public room list; it offers VIP services and complimentary valet for guests booked in that section. If you want adults-only privacy, ask about Club Ten availability when booking.
The Villas are a separate, secluded accommodation category described as adults-only with a private entrance, in-room spa hot tub, and access to a Villas-only pool. Book directly with the resort for details and availability.

Best value and easy-to-book rooms
Standard Room, 1 King Bed and Standard Room, 2 Queen Beds are the most common room types and usually the easiest to find and book. These rooms are the practical baseline for location, bedding and resort access.

Practical tips for choosing and booking rooms
If you need specific features (ocean view, balcony, sofa bed, executive-floor access, or adults-only villas/Club Ten), request them at booking and reconfirm with the resort. The San Luis Resort's policies and special areas (Club Ten and the Villas) are controlled by the property and often require direct booking to secure.
The property enforces a minimum check-in age of 21 for the person reserving and checking in. Also note the resort does not provide extra cots or rollaway beds, so plan room selection around existing bedding.
- Ask about ocean-view versus city/parking-facing rooms when booking if a balcony or view matters
- Confirm Club Ten or Villas availability directly with the resort for adults-only access and VIP amenities
- No cots/extra beds are available — choose bedding configurations that match your party
| Policy | What to do |
|---|---|
| Minimum check-in age 21 | Ensure the primary guest meets the requirement |
| No extra beds/cots | Reserve a Room, with Sofa bed, Ocean View or two-bed room for additional sleepers |
| Pool/cabana rules | Pool access requires wristband; Luxury Cabanas may be adults-only |
