“Loved everything about it”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 29, 2012

The two of us have visited FWB/Destin numerous times, but overlooked this gem! We were delighted with The Breakers because it has ALL beachfront rooms, flexibility of stays (no Sat.-Sat. restriction), two great pools, and excellent management.

Our condo (West building) was clean, charming in decor, and had everything we needed for a week's stay. The views were fantastic! The floor plan is good. The only drawback was that the bathrooms are a little small (1 sink each and tight on floor space).

LOVED the pool rules!! No rough play, no food/drinks in pool, and use headphones if listening to music. This kept the pools peaceful and available to everyone, not monopolized by loud and rude people which I have experienced other places. You do need to bring your own beach towels, no big deal. Can't rate the fitness center because we forgot to use it!

Front desk was helpful 24/7 and always friendly. We talked with several owners who advised that the property is consistently well maintained. We will definitely be back.

“Had a delightful stay!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 4, 2012

We stayed in unit W305. We were very impressed with the condo. It was spotless and well decorated. Everything you could want, was already there. All you need is to bring your food and beach towels. The staff was cordial and helpful. Beach and pool are close, with beach chairs available free to people staying there. The two pools were well kept. The location is perfect. Close to everything, with several nice restaurants in walking distance.

“We Love This Place!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 25, 2012

What a beautiful setting! We shared a three bedroom condo with another couple and where very please with the unit. Very nicely appointed, beautiful view of the water from the balcony. Quite and air conditioner keep us cold! Washer and dryer in the unit was helpful. Cable TV and internet was a plus. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Beach umbrella and two chairs provided but they also offer a very nice big pool, two in fact. Gas grills are also available is you are in the mood for steak.

Room Tip: Just ask for LInda, she was very helpful.

“We will return...”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 21, 2012

We stayed in W308. It was a beautiful condo. Great location. White sand beaches. The condo had two bedrooms (king size beds) Lots of closet space. Sofa bed in the living room. Kitchen was fully stocked with all pots, pans, dishes, etc. The decor was perfect. The owners of this condo really take pride and maintain this condo very well.

Room Tip: I would of liked a higher floor. Look for deals on their website.

“Wonderful first visit to Ft. Walton Beach!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 1, 2012

After searching many, many hotels/condos to stay in for our first trip down to Ft.Walton/Destin area I chose, The Breakers. Our family of 7 was very happy & comfortable in our condo (w607). It was very clean, nice furniture and very spacious. Compared to what we paid for our stays in Myrtle Beach in past years the rate here was over $1,000 cheaper for the same # of nights! The beach was beautiful (although there was a lot of june grass). The beach chair set up guy was very friendly and it was such a nice service to have included in our rental fee. The pool was never crowed and even had the pool to ourselves a couple of the times we went down to the pool. The free movie rental was great too, kids loved it! Overall we were VERY happy with the Breakers and would definitely come back and stay here!

Room Tip: Ask for a higher floor for the best views of the gulf =)
