The St. Regis Longboat Key Resort

Everything about our trip to the St Regis at Longboat Key was wonderful. The staff, especially the ladies in the coffee shop and bar tenders at Monkey Bar and the main lobby bar went above and beyond to provide amazing service. The rooms were lovely, the grounds well appointed. Perfect for a fun relaxing upscale get away.

We had a great experience staying at this beautiful property! The service is incredible, so many nice people that work there! Jack at the beach & pool gave great service with food and drink orders. Maxwell at CW Prime, he is very knowledgeable with the menu for recommendations! Valet and our beach attendant also deserve a shoutout! We loved all the restaurants and especially the lobby bar with the piano playing! This resort caters to families as well as couples. My grown kids that are adults enjoyed snorkeling in the 500,000 salt water lagoon pool area & the lazy river pool! My husband and I enjoyed the adult pool it’s very tranquil! We can’t wait to go back in October!

Having stayed at many a luxury resort in Florida, I will say that the St. Regis Longboat is my favorite by far. We stayed for a week over spring break and had 3 rooms for a multigenerational family trip. The facilities are incredible. Everything is well designed, clean, fresh and new. Our room was a 2 queen bed with bay view. There was plenty of storage for our family of 4, the bathroom had a huge shower and separate free standing tub along with a 2 sink vanity. We could have hosted all 10 of our family members on the balcony and had room to spare. The room was serviced twice daily; turndown service included slippers, water at the bedside and chocolate on our pillows. Underneath my glasses, housekeeping placed a cleaning cloth and they neatly rolled up and tied all of our charging cables. We felt spoiled. The staff are truly the highlight. Andrea and Dawn at Riva; Kayla in the Reef Rangers Club; Evie and Tammy at the aquarium; Jonathan at Aqua; Joe on the piano and all of the pool staff... everyone made our stay so much better. Everyone was so attentive, kind and patient. It's so rare to come across people nowadays who truly seem to enjoy their jobs and everyone at the St. Regis appears to be proud of the resort and the work they do. The staff are the reason we will be back. We also utilized the spa, another highlight of the trip. Facilities are top notch. There are his and hers facilities which feature a cold plunge, hot tub, sauna, steam room, snow shower (!!) and aromatherapy shower. There is also an outdoor pool which is more like a giant hot tub with jets and was perfectly heated. My massage was heavenly. Again, the staff were attentive and lovely. The pools - the zero depth entry pool kept our kids endlessly entertained along with many, many trips around the lazy river. The pools had coolers at each lounger full of cold water and a button to press for service which always brought a server to our chair within 5-10 minutes. What more could you ask for? The food was excellent - no one had a bad bite all week. The breakfast at Riva is outstanding. In a sea of bad breakfast buffets at hotels, Riva put together a buffet that is actually a highlight. Our kids are still talking about missing their morning Riva waffles. They also served coffee that is roasted in St. Pete, it was so good I had to get the name and ordered a bag for at home. Every cocktail was outstanding. Part of our family snorkeled in the lagoon. Our kids absolutely loved this experience, feeding stingrays and puffer fish. The marine biologists running the lagoon had endless knowledge to share and are also great at naming animals - notably their pufferfish Alvin, Simon and Theodore. The only complaint we could come up with was a lack of snacks - if you wanted something between lunch and dinner or a bite after dinner, there was a lack of options. Everything is a sit down meal. Towards the end of the trip, we were given a menu with food at the lob
