Demand for presidential suites is booming, and 2025 marks a special year for three hotels when it comes to the best of the best in suites. From the most expensive suite in Fort Lauderdale to a bi-level, cliffside villa in Costa Rica, these three presidential suites are ready to set a new standard in 2025.

Set to debut early next year, the presidential suite at this property can be found at the tip of Dubai’s most exclusive private beach. This suite spans more than 3,300 square feet, with an additional 2,800-square-foot terrace featuring a private plunge pool overlooking the Arabian Gulf. This suite embraces nautical detailing as a nod to the glamor of life at sea and the elegance of a superyacht, complete with skyline views. A stay in this suite also means access to the resort’s five pools, 82-berth superyacht marina, 11 world-class restaurants, nine bars and the three-floor Talise Spa.

This presidential suite, opening in January 2025, will be the city’s most expensive suite, with prices starting at $10,000 per night. Across this 3,000-square-foot suite atop the 15th floor of the resort’s tower, guests are spoiled with natural light across two bedrooms and bathrooms, a wraparound terrace, private media room, custom-designed bars and dedicated workout space. Each room evokes a 1960s feel with sunset-inspired color palettes. Guests of the suite also have access to the largest superyacht on the eastern seaboard, 12 dining venues, multiple pools and a massive spa.

Next spring marks the opening of this resort’s newest presidential suite … well, villa, to be more precise. The Waldorf Astoria Presidential Suite, which overlooks Playa Penca, spans three bedrooms and is designed in a bi-level layout. The suite includes free-standing soaking tubs, a kitchen, dining area for eight guests and various gathering spaces. And while not a presidential suite, the property also boasts the Pacifico Suite, another signature space with three bedrooms across one floor, complete with two pool areas.

Sep 9, 2026The Return of Gateside Goodbyes? New TSA Program Lets Non-Flyers Past Security
It was once a distant memory: walking with loved ones to their gate to see them off, waving goodbye and watching their plane take off. This all ended after Sept. 11, 2001, in which greater security measures were put in place to account for each and every person who goes through security checkpoints. The Transportation Security Administration was established two months after the terrorist attack to prevent other hijackings, creating a unified federal administration to screen bags and passengers. Before, it was up to the individual airlines to hire their own security for screenings.
