The St. Regis Longboat Key Resort checks in at No. Immediately above the St. Regis Longboat Key: the Southern Ocean Lodge on Kangaroo Island, Australia ($3,400 a night). “The only new St. Regis to open in the U.S. [in 2024] is coming to the white sands of a barrier island in the Gulf Coast off Sarasota," the list, published earlier this month, says. The 17.3-acre site on Longboat Key has been under construction since 2021. The Robb Report notes that double rooms at the St. Regis Longboat Key will start at $1,200 a night.
