The hotel delivers a true five-star experience in many ways. The breakfast spread is fantastic, the service across most areas is top-notch, and it’s the small thoughtful touches that really elevate the overall experience. That said, there are a few areas that fell a bit short. The food outside of breakfast was underwhelming, especially considering the price point. My check-in experience also wasn’t what I’d expect from a five-star property—the staff member assisting me didn’t seem particularly engaged or welcoming. I won’t call anyone out by name, but first impressions matter, and this one didn’t set the tone I was hoping for. Lastly, there was ongoing construction during my stay that hadn’t been disclosed in advance. It wasn’t a deal-breaker, but it’s something guests should be aware of before booking. Overall, I’d still recommend the hotel and will be returning. Read less

Make sure there are no events scheduled during your visit. They handle that poorly. Multiple noisy construction sites, limited access. Poor management of client disputes. A reservation to attend the SESPRES meeting this June was scrambled: the meeting code was not processed and registered with other mistakes (handicap requirements, etc…). Arguably, reservation could well be wrongly processed on my end. However, upon checking in and informing my attendance to the event, nothing was mentioned on applying a high fee for a room facing a patio under heavy construction (yet described as a partial sea view) and a breakfast included that was already covered by my event registration fees (paid 2 breakfasts). All requests to consider application of the event fee (personal and those from the event secretariat) were refused, although no extra services were provided by the premises that could justify the difference in cost. A 200 attendees meeting scheduled a year ago faced a long waiting check in-line that preceded a sulky attendant who paid no attention to detail, thus further compromising attempts at resolving room fees dispute. When a comment to a supervisor was made about the personnel indifference, her excuse was that indeed person were stressed out by a busy check in day prior to the event. If that was not enough, pools were crowded on those days, as expected, yet no effort was made to improve water filtration system so that by midday, cloudy waters invited guests to migrate to the beach where the ocean views were decorated with cranes and heavy trucks and sea wave sounds orchestrated with regular rumble of a nearby quay construction. I dare to submit the conclusion that the breakers an exclusive resort, yet not one that would maintain their high standards during a relatively large gathering. On a personal basis, the resort's administration lacked of any and all abilities to manage even the most cordially submitted dispute. When costly high standards are not delivered, your service turns into a decadent scam. Read less

Obviously, a lovely historic building, the location is stunning. That being said, be ready to pay $50 for a cheeseburger and 20 bucks for a beer. The room was disappointing very small and not very impressive accommodations. But the daily turned down service and attention to detail from staff was noticeable, I think there really is only so much you can do with a building of that age. The beaches are nice, but nothing to write home about, several pools and never any issues finding seating. We played the course as well, short but well manicured. Walking distance into town was nice. The vibes at night in the restaurants and bars were fantastic, very much a sophisticated luxury adults style get away. Read less

The Seafood Bar at The Breakers has great food, service and atmosphere. The kind hostesses greet and seat you and all of my servers have been wonderful. Polite, kind and friendly. Today and last week our server was Jacklyn M. She was outstanding! Rocky is also a favorite! The food is excellent and the ocean views beautiful! I enjoy beginning my meal with the Clam Chowder Bread Bowl. Best Clam Chowder in Florida! I end my meal with the fabulous Banana Cream Pie. Main courses are all great, but the steak for dinner is my favorite and the Cheeseburger for lunch. I come often and love the food and servers here. Such tranquil and gorgeous view from the tables. You will not be disappointed! Just entering the hotel lobby is a special treat with fresh flowers to greet the guests. Read less
