I think that we'd need documentation that it even exists, first, and isn't some random cartographic rubbish that the GNIS has ossified.
Hodge 1907, p. 201 has a laundry list of placenames for "Papago" settlements, and it isn't on it.
USDI 1941 is a whole report on place names, and it isn't in it. It has the San Luis Wash on page 25, and a San Luis village on page 14 at (it says) 32°05′00″N111°57′30″W / 32.08333°N 111.95833°W / 32.08333; -111.95833 on a bend of the Wash. But no San Luis anywhere near where this San Luis is purported to be. This claims to be a second San Luis. But
Hodge 1907, p. 449 tells us that the Tohono Oʼodham San Luis, a second one, is in Mexico.

The Geographic Names Information System and the GEOnet Names Server do not satisfy the "legal recognition" requirement and are also unreliable for "populated place" designation.
