Mediterranean-Revivaltimeless

PB hotel design editorial

Twice destroyed by fire and twice rebuilt, the palazzo-style tower that anchors The Breakers on Palm Beach's oceanfront carries the ambitions of Henry Flagler's Gilded Age railroad empire in its very stonework. Leonard Schultze — the architect behind New York's Waldorf Astoria — designed the current structure in 1926, modeling its twin campaniles and terracotta-tiled rooflines on the Villa Medici in Rome. The aerial view confirms just how seriously that Mediterranean Revival brief was pursued: cream stucco arcades, red-tiled hipped roofs, and a formal pool terrace framed by royal palms step down toward the Atlantic in a composition that has barely shifted in a century. Spread across 140 acres with 538 rooms across ten floors, the property remains family-owned by the Kenan family, an unusual distinction at this scale. Recent interior updates brought the guestrooms into a cooler, more coastal register — blue floral wallcovering panels behind upholstered headboards trimmed in navy, custom-woven rugs in swirling indigo on cream grounds, sage green lounge chairs in stripe fabric, and wrought-iron balcony railings framing uninterrupted Atlantic views. The dining spaces shift in character: one restaurant trades the palazzo formality for a white-painted shiplap ceiling with exposed timber trusses, coral-toned banquettes, rattan pendants alongside a two-tier iron chandelier, and dark-stained oak floors — closer in atmosphere to a well-appointed coastal boathouse than to the grand room tradition the main building so confidently sustains.

"This is our 4th visit. There’s a lot to like about this hotel. Architecture glamour and position. The new courtyard for instance is breathtaking. There’s a few things that let it down however . I’m sick of the additions. So a $50 burger is now plus 20% “Service” charge plus tax then the waiting staff stand over you to watch the “gratuity” gap filled in ! This has become the American disease. What’s a service charge for exactly ? That used to be tip !! We travel for business extensively throughout the world. USA is becoming a reference to “Rip off”. Cheap food days are gone. $50 burger is now 75-80 bucks. It’s pure greed and opportunism . The rooms are sufficient but looking a little dated for the quality of hotel, they are quite compact also. Shame I heard two couples in the same night complain. Is it tip Or service they said."

"We enjoyed Breakfast at the Circle restaurant over 4th of July weekend. It is very beautiful just like the rest of the hotel. Our attendant Lluvia was the best. She made us feel very welcome and made our visit memorable. We rate her and the hotel 5 stars!!!"

"This is an iconic old world hotel with beautiful architecture and 5* service. The rooms are a decent size ( deluxe partial ocean view) for 2 guests but not 3. The bed/ pillows are very comfortable with top quality linens. The bathroom is adequate size with double sinks and a walk in shower. The buffet breakfast in The Circle Room is excellent. There are plenty of restaurant and bar choices. So what are the negative. If you are primarily looking for a beach vacation then this is NOT it. The beach is tiny and littered with seaweed. During my (5 days here I don’t think I saw anyone in the ocean. Also the hotel is in the flight path of PBI so you will occasionally hear planes ( minor problem). Also at the present time if you go to the adult “ quiet” pool you will hear construction noise all day."
