The building's location puts residents just steps away from the sand, with easy access to the bustling downtown area and its myriad of attractions.

Corner units are particularly coveted for their expansive views and abundant natural light.
Beachside relaxation and historic elegance

On-site management ensures the smooth operation of the building, addressing residents' needs and maintaining the property's historic charm. The Saint Regis' direct beach access is perhaps its most coveted feature, allowing residents to step from the building directly onto the sand, epitomizing the allure of beachfront living in Long Beach.
