Beautiful and affordable for families with children. Shocked at the increase in cost of hotel rooms this summer of 2026 for families with children. Reasonable for couples, when children are included the price greatly increases.

My annual pilgrimage to The Breakers!! I absolutely love The Breakers and all the incredible staff. Maddie H. took Incredible care of us!! She is my new Lake Meadows. She made sure we had a great room & Dinner reservations, She was always available to us. Trish in the lobby Area is also fantastic. She is the navigator of the crowd, two bars and the pools. She is so sweet. Charlie in the seafood bar was our Go To Guy. I was so glad to see Dan the lifeguard back at the pool!!! And The Breakers helped him get through EMT school. Yeah!! Alana and Brooke Teaching incredible water aerobics class that we attended everyday. Julian in HMF, another employee that was off the charts. His parents have to be so proud of him. I’ll plan to go to The Breakers every year for a week for the rest of my life. I absolutely love The Breakers!! One of the very best hotels in the United States!! Read less

recently dined at a restaurant at The Breakers, and unfortunately, my experience was extremely disappointing. The service was so poor that I would not even give it one star. For a property that presents itself as a luxury, five-star destination, the level of hospitality fell far below expectations. The staff appeared uninterested, unwelcoming, and poorly trained in the basic standards of fine dining service. There was a noticeable lack of professionalism, etiquette, attentiveness, and courtesy. Instead of making guests feel valued, the atmosphere felt uncomfortable and dismissive. When guests choose to spend their time and money at a luxury hotel, they expect exceptional service, respect, and attention to detail. Sadly, that was not my experience. The quality of service did not reflect the reputation or price point associated with this property. Management should take a serious look at staff training and guest relations. If service standards continue to decline, many guests may choose to spend their money elsewhere. There are plenty of hotels and restaurants where customers are treated with professionalism, warmth, and respect. I sincerely hope improvements are made because the property itself deserves better than the service I experienced. I cannot recommend this place and this is not the first time we stay there and every time we thought that maybe things will change, but we know that we won’t be back and personally I would fire everybody who works there all the waitresses, especially who don’t have a clue how to be in this business.

A business friend of mine was staying here so I drove up from Fort Lauderdale to have lunch with her. I was super excited to go to the breakers! It is an icon in the area and I love architecture. Why I gave it 2 stars: * the property is an icon in the area and it is absolutely beautiful! Worth seeing if you like history and architecture. * The food was great Why it doesnt get a higher rating: * Post-COVID, service greatly declined. * We at at Ocean House. My friend was horrified with how I was treated as a guest not staying AT the hotel. It was honestly weird. I'm still there to spend money. * Reception at the restaurant was unprofessional and rude * It took us a very long time to have a simple lunch and get the bill / pay. * I know there was construction and she was VERY disappointed with her room that she booked a year in advance and paid for a view and was looking at a wall. I felt bad for her. All in all it was a disappointment. Whether I'm a local visiting a hotel guest or not, I'm STILL there to buy food and drinks and pay for it. I was dressed nice / business attire, etc. and my money spends the same. I hope they have fixed these issues since I was there over the summer. Read less

Wow!!! This place lived up to the hype. The valet was the best I have ever seen. The grounds beautiful, food delicious, great location. I loved the chocolates they gave. It was like stepping back in time in the most magical way possible.
