Turtle Bay Resort on Oahu's North Shore is set for a rebranding and relaunch under Marriott International's prestigious Ritz-Carlton brand. Host Hotels & Resorts has announced its agreement to acquire the 1,180-acre property from Blackstone Real Estate for approximately $680 million.

The acquisition includes the existing resort and an additional 49-acre parcel of land earmarked for future development. Marriott will take over management of Turtle Bay Resort, which spans 450 rooms and recently underwent a comprehensive renovation during the pandemic.

The St. Regis Longboat Key Resort, a highly anticipated addition to the Marriott luxury portfolio, is now accepting reservations for its 2024 opening. Nestled on a pristine barrier island near Sarasota, Florida, the resort represents the largest development on Longboat Key in over 50 years.
