I never thought any resort could top The Breakers in Palm Beach with all its historic glamour. But now all eyes are on Sarasota as The St. Regis gets ready to open this summer. The resort is the largest development to open on Longboat Key in over 50 years. Here's the scoop: The hotel overlooks the Gulf of Mexico and will offer 168 guest rooms, 26 suites with terraces, a private white-sand beach, multiple swimming pools and luxurious cabanas.
A 475-foot-long winding river with cascading waterfalls leads into the grotto, a private sanctuary with Jacuzzi jets and Champagne service at the touch of a button. The lagoon wildlife experience boasts a 350,000-gallon habitat with nearly 50 stingrays, over 2,800 local reef fish and two Aldabra tortoises. Meet me at The St. Regis Spa! I love the idea of a co-ed snow shower at this new wellness retreat, and I can't wait to toast to the sunset at the iconic St. Regis Bar, with a latticed circus-esque cage surrounded by a hand-painted mural by William Savarese.
