Here are some fun historical facts about the hotel:
- The hotel sits on 140 oceanfront acres in the heart of Palm Beach
- The original Breakers opened in 1896
- People asked to stay in rooms "overlooking the breakers" and thus the name
- In 1903 it burned down, was rebuilt and then reopened in 1904 (it burned down again two decades later)
Everything was still decked out for Christmas! Very snazzy.
We had lunch overlooking the beach which was great!
The irony of the afternoon is that we were at their seafood restaurant, but all enjoyed burgers.
