Palm Beach Hotels: The Breakers or The Four Seasons
 
We are going to Palm Beach in the middle of June and have decided on two hotels, The Breakers and The Four Seasons. Which one is better? Has better service? Better Location? This will be our first time to Palm Beach much less Florida. We want to go shopping on Worth Avenue, and want a nice lounging pool and beach. Which hotel has a better pool and beach?

Thanks,

Lane

If you'd like a LOT of views from a LOT of people I suggest you read the reviews for both on TripAdvisor.com

I really like the Four Seasons better. The Breakers is definitely a "wow" location but it's big and a walk down to the water.

But I LOVE the 4S. It's much smaller, more intimate, quietly elegant. You walk out of the hotel and the pool is right there - and then stroll past the pool and the waterfront restaurant and the beach is right there. Lovely hotel, great service, good food options and the pool and ocean just steps away. Very different from the Breakers. The shopping and restaurants of Worth Avenue are a short drive away.

Is the Breakers to good to miss though?

I want an authentic Palm Beach experience

I just made reservations, but wanted to know, is the relaxation pool adult only? Or can a mellow kid be there too?

I have been to both properties. I like the 4 S better as well - and you can expect top notch service from them. I attended a wedding there - and it was very nice on the lawn. I have no idea about the adult pool. The brunch at the breakers was unbelievable when I was there - very over the top.

I made reservations for the breakers, and was asking if their relaxation pool was adult only?

Best if you ask the hotel directly about the relaxation pool.
