šļø St. Regis Resort SoarsāBut Longboatās Parking Dilemma Could Impact Property Values
Hi neighbors, itās Michael here with your Longboat Key check-in!
The St. Regis just had an incredible first yearāthink sold-out summer, $2,000 average room rates, and now the prestigious AAA 5-Diamond rating. Itās a huge win for local tourism and high-end development.
But thereās a new challenge: parking.
With overflow already tapping into town and condo lots, developer Chuck Whittall has proposed a 2-story parking garageāunder 30 feet tall, surrounded by greenery, and possibly featuring car lifts.
š Concern: Some locals feel this could impact Longboatās island charm.
ā
Pro: A smart garage supports tourism without sacrificing real estate flow.
šļø If youāre a nearby condo owner or future buyer, this affects:
ā Guest experience
ā Resale appeal
ā Future zoning and infrastructure decisions
