The Breakers

Fodor's Review:

Dating from 1896 and on the National Register of Historic Places, this opulent Italian Renaissance-style resort, owned by Henry Flagler's heirs, sprawls over 140 oceanfront acres. Cupids frolic at the main Florentine fountain, and majestic frescoes grace hallways leading to restaurants. More than an opulent hotel, the Breakers is a modern resort packed with amenities, from a 20,000-square-foot luxury spa and beach club to golf and tennis clubhouses that support the 10 tennis courts and two 18-hole golf courses. Jackets and ties are no longer required after 7 PM. Pros: Fine attention to detail throughout; beautiful room views; top-rate golf, tennis and croquet facilities. Cons: All this luxury comes with a big price!
