Morphology
This is a simple adjective + noun combination where 'great' (very good/large) modifies 'loot' (stolen goods, spoils, or valuable items), so the phrase straightforwardly means very valuable or abundant spoils. The compositional pattern is regular in English and cross-linguistically common, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily infer the intended meaning.
Etymology
Great loot comes from old stories of soldiers and pirates who took treasure after a victory. Here, loot is the goods they found or took and great shows it was large or very valuable, so the phrase now means 'a big, valuable collection of items'.
