PROMOTION Paradise in Palm Beach An iconic hideaway in Florida’s chicest corner, The Breakers woos with an enticing repertoire of memorable experiences The sunny island off Florida’s southeastern coast has long been synonymous with the sort of seaside glamour that’s impossible to manufacture, and since the turn of the 20th century, The Breakers has been counted as the glitzy resort town’s red-hot epicentre of laidback luxe. Next to the timeless grandeur of its Rennaissance-style architecture, the property sets itself apart from the rest by offering endless opportunities for relaxation, recreation and revelling. A day here might begin with a few rounds on the historic Ocean Course – which has recently benefitted from a stunning renovation by feted gold-course architect Rees Jones – and continue on a chaise longue on the patio of your private poolside bungalow. After some retail therapy at The Breakers’ boutique-filled courtyard or a lavish treatment at the indoor-outdoor spa, guests are invited to eat their way across the ten diverse dining destinations including the Adam-Tihany designed Seafood Bar, which serves up divine oceanto-fork fare and striking ocean views and Flagler Steakhouse, the resort’s vibrant take on the classic American chophouse. For even more exclusivity, escape to Flagler Club, a private-access, 25 room hotel-within-the-hotel offering personalised service, a private lounge and idyllic rooftop terrace.
