Luxury Travel Advisor - February 2008 - (Page 18) DESTINATIONS P ALM BEACH COUNTY This Gold Coast resort remains a favorite among the rich and famous. BY RUTHANNE TERRERO The Breakers (www.thebreak ers.com) moved to the top of Luxury Travel Advisor’s favorite resorts after our visit last year. Why? It wasn’t just the grandeur of its iconic lobby or how we felt suspended over the Atlantic in our spacious Premium Full Oceanfront Room (Tip: #5140 in the South Tower is truly tops in this category); rather, it was the friendly, intuitive service that we enjoyed from literally every employee we met at the resort. We also loved the newly redone pool area, which stretches seemingly for miles along The Breakers’ premium oceanfront. In fact, “poolside” takes on an entirely new meaning at The Breakers, whose beach bungalows (available for daytime rental) are private, spacious quarters that include a living room, private bathroom, Wi-Fi service, LCD TVs, a wet bar and refrigerator. We also loved the posh patios from which we could watch the world go by. (Hint: Those clients who must “see and be seen” from the most prestigious bungalow will want unit #30, as it has an adjacent private lawn. If that’s taken, ask for unit #16.) Place your most demanding clients in the Imperial, the Royal Poinciana or Premium Oceanfront Suites.
