With 168 guest rooms and 26 oceanfront suites, this luminous newcomer occupies 18 acres of private beachfront on Longboat Key. The décor channels coastal calm—soft tones, textured fabrics, ocean‑lit marble—with a welcoming sense of ease rather than grandeur. Guests drift between serene dining venues where menus are guided by global influences, and a bar humming with discreet charm.

The spa stretches ocean‑front, offering vitality pools, steam and sauna in a quiet sanctuary. A fitness centre sits nearby, alongside a winding lazy‑river‑style pool, an adults‑only enclave with waterfall and butler‑served cocktails, and a natural lagoon where marine life swims beneath attentive aquarists.

Butler service is woven into the stay, while a kids club keeps younger guests inspired. A sweeping private beach invites barefoot wandering. Stand‑out moments arrive in slow afternoons spent snorkeling among fish, lounging beneath cabanas or watching long sunsets. With Sarasota’s cultural heart within easy reach, the setting balances isolation and accessibility in an artful way
