    We went here with a group of high school students to take an etiquette class and then get a tour of the Breakers. It is truly a lovely place and every employee is super helpful and very kind. I love how the whole hotel is set up. The hotel feels so elegant all the time which I love. I love how it overlooks the ocean - you almost feel as if you can or will fall into it!

    Stunning property, fittingly named as you can watch the waves breaking against the rocks right along the shoreline. This historic hotel and event space reminded me in some ways of The Biltmore in Asheville. Everything is clean and pristine yet kept in a fashion that feels true to the era it was built. The aquarium at the bar area was simply incredible and we loved also hanging out at the larger bar area as well. A must if in the area!

    Beautiful old hotel , I didn't stay here but brunch is a must if you visit . About the hotel Founded on the sands of Palm Beach in 1896, The Breakers welcomes guests with unparalleled seaside glamour and world-class amenities. Enjoy everything under the sun - private beachfront, four pools, acclaimed restaurants, indoor-outdoor Ocean Fitness center, stunning spa, shopping, golf and more.

    You have to come stay here at least once in your lifetime. The most luxurious, old money, historic experience you'll ever have. Truly spectacular. Can't wait to come back!

    I had never heard of it before my visit to West Palm Beach FL. We dressed up after reading about it. Walked in for lunch, at the Sea Food restaurant. Everything and more visually, locations, historic and taste wise did not disappoint. Only spend a couple of hours for lunch. Pricy but worth it, if you like food and wine. It had the feel of regal people that had been dining and wandering these halls. I Loved every minute of that place.

    The Breaker is always a top notch experience: brunch is one of the best I've seen anywhere--the variety of food is vast, the music is lovely, the views and space are beautiful. It's great for those special occasions. The Seafood Bar is fun as fish tanks with clown fish are the bar counter--so entertaining and flaming. Cocktails are good and mocktails as well. Their store has a great variety of goods, and we made the most of some of the sale section to pick up some things for the home. It's nice to walk around after eating and enjoy the beauty of the hotel. There are exhibitions to learn the history of Palm beach and Flagler, and artifacts of hotel history. Their ballrooms are magnificent, and although their Spanish ball room with portraits of Spanish historical figures are mislabeled (yikes) it's still a lovely space reminiscent to Spain.

    Amazing family friendly resort hotel. Breathtaking views and the service from every staff member was superb. The restaurants all had great drinks and food and had a children's menu. Kid friendly pool access, and kids entertainment center with outdoor playground, basketball court, mini golf and arcade. 10-15 min from airport and free shuttle access to any of their restaurants that are not in immediate campus. Only thing to be prepared for is that given Palm Beach is bougie is general, that some of the guests are "aloof", rather than friendly, if you get my gist.

    Everything was great. Fantastic staff and beautiful bar and views. They have a bar that stretches along a great glass windows with a wonderful view of the ocean. But what's really unique is that the bar is also an aquarium with fish and live reefs . It's very unique and incredibly cool to look at while you're enjoying your snack and drink. You're not going to get and deals here. But you're paying for a very nice experience. I highly suggest the bar for the fish views and the fast and excellent service. We had the we had the grilled cheese served on Parker House rolls. Although it was a little pricey, it was enough to share for two people and both be very satisfied. If you don't like tomato soup, I suggest you ask to substitute french fries. They were good.

    This is a beautiful historical hotel north of downtown West Palm Beach. To go in as a visitor you need to give your ID to the security guard before pulling in to the visitor parking area We walked around the grounds and we loved the decor and the details all around. The price per night is about $1300-1500 for the basic room. It's a great place to bring out of town guests so they can experience the life of the rich and famous!

    A friend of mine, who's a member, recently brought me to The Breakers, and I'm still swooning from the experience. From the moment you pull into the palm-lined drive, you know you're about to enter somewhere truly special--and trust me, it delivers. Founded in 1896 by the legendary Henry Flagler (yes, the same railroad magnate who basically built modern Florida!), The Breakers oozes historic grandeur while offering every modern luxury imaginable. Flagler's vision of opulence and coastal elegance is alive and well here--and elevated to perfection. We didn't just come for the view (though wow--the Atlantic Ocean views from the rooms are worth every penny). We stayed, sipped, and spoiled ourselves with everything the resort has to offer. The cocktails at the bar? Exquisite. You can taste the craftsmanship in every glass. And if you're not up for venturing out--why would you be?--the resort truly puts everything at your fingertips. You've got world-class restaurants, golf, multiple pools, and a five-star spa that feels like a sanctuary from the world. Whether you're here to relax in the sunshine or play like royalty, you'll be more than taken care of. I highly recommend choosing a room that overlooks the Atlantic Ocean--there's nothing like waking up to that endless blue. The Breakers isn't just a hotel, it's an experience. One that reminds you life can be both luxurious and unforgettable. Can't wait to return.

    One of the best resort experiences we've ever had as a family. The Breakers truly lives up to its five-star reputation. From the moment we arrived, everything felt seamless, elegant, and welcoming. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and we even scored a complimentary upgrade through our Amex, which was a great surprise. The food was fantastic--especially the buffet, which had a wide variety of high-quality options. The entire resort is beautifully maintained, and the service across the board was excellent. While we didn't get a chance to play pickleball this time, we loved knowing it was available. The resort also offered a convenient shuttle service that took us to nearby restaurants, the museum, and Worth Avenue, where we did some shopping and strolling. The location really can't be beat--it's close to iconic landmarks, the ocean, and everything you'd want to see in Palm Beach. We also appreciated the wide, open green spaces where our infant could safely roam and explore. The landscaping is gorgeous and made our daily walks feel peaceful and refreshing. There was some construction going on, but it didn't really affect our stay. We were only there for a few nights and honestly, everything else made up for it. Check-in was quick, staff were friendly, and our room was cleaned twice a day--plus we loved the little chocolates they left behind. Yes, prices for food and some amenities are on the higher end, but the overall quality and experience made it feel worth it. Even small touches, like being served sparkling water by default and still water in cans, really stood out to us. We created some amazing memories here and we'll absolutely be coming back. This place checks all the boxes for a luxury family getaway.

    Beautiful landscaping and Gilded Age Architecture

    Gorgeous! Gorgeous! Gorgeous! **we did not stay at the hotel, just visited for shopping and dining** This hotel was built in the Gilded Age by wealthy tycoon Henry Flagler, and it has been maintained VERY well from what we saw. Beautiful gardens, golfing on the beach, buffet breakfast in a solarium surrounded by the ocean- they dont make buildings like this anymore! Price for hotel rooms is $$$ but if you can afford it, this is truly how the other half lives!

    Breathtaking!!! Impeccable on the cleanliness and the friendly service from the staff.

    How much does a night in a hotel cost?

    It depends on time of year, special events, etc. Plan on $700-$2,000 for a basic room.

    Can I bring my service small dog?

    Yes service dogs can go anywhere if they're truly a service dog

    Is there a bar service on the beach?

    How much do the bungalows cost to rent in May?

    $999

    How much is parking?

    Free self-parking, if there's room. Tell the guard you plan to self-park. He will send you to the right. It's a two-minute walk from the lot to the front door.

    What does it cost to stay at the breakers of palm beach?

    It really depends on the season and room you select. The rates range from high $300s to high $1,000s. It is cheaper to stay in the Summer believe it or not. They have an exclusive section of the hotel that is called The Flagler Club, which ranges… Read more

We enjoyed our room, it was simple and comfortable. Although when the AC is off, I can hear someone talking next door. I feel safe in this resort, the elevators use keycards to access floors so random people cannot enter. Same goes for the pool area and beach gate. Theres a laundry room in the building and I love that it's free. Just ask them for laundry detergent. We grabbed a quick quesadilla every morning at the market place. It's very convenient as we stayed in the dolphin building right next to the main lobby. The smoothies are good, and we just ordered uber eats meals to the lobby for pickup instead of heading out to find food. The paper said we can get our room cleaned for a fee. A lady knocked on our door to ask if we needed a cleaning so I wasn't sure if we would be charged. When we first checked into our room, I had to have an electrician come in because our table lamps and outlets did not work. That was the only issue with our room. The guy came within the hour and fixed everything. Also our towel bar fell off the wall. It's been broken, they just left it like that for I don't know how long, that's why there was no towel on it when we first came in. We spent time in the pool in the day time and at night. One inconvenience is they do not have towels by the pools so you have to bring your own from the rooms. The pools are not very cold and the hot tub is not very hot, it's warm. On a Saturday afternoon there were loungers still available for use. We didn't feel like we had to fight for one. I saw there were beach chairs for rent, 2 days costs $110. We didn't spend much time on the beach but the beach is beautiful and there's a lot of seashells scattered. I like the resort but we will probably not be returning because the food options are not suitable for us in the palm beach area. There is not much Asian food. I do recommend this resort though. We had a lovely time doing nothing but relax in the pools and sleep.

We wanted a nice, clean place to stay after a long day of travel. We booked our room online, planning to stay one night and then find something else for the rest of the week. As soon as we walked in, I was in love with this place. The front desk agents were friendly and helpful, and the lobby was spotless. When we got to our room, I was genuinely shocked at how clean it was. I'm very particular about hotels and like to double-check the cleanliness before settling in, but I could tell right away this place had been cleaned very well. It didn't take long for us to decide to stay here for the week. We enjoyed breakfast in the lobby every morning, and sat in the courtyard by the pool most evenings. The valets were amazing; we almost never had to wait for our car, and they remembered us by name. This was the first time I've had housekeeping come during a hotel stay. I usually just put up the Do Not Disturb sign, but I decided I wanted to really enjoy this vacation. Housekeeping did a remarkable job freshening up the room, and it felt like magic to come back to a clean room after being out all day! We will definitely stay here again next time we are in town.
