THE SPA AT THE BREAKERS: A DESTINATION FOR TROPICAL PAMPERING AND RENEWAL
PALM BEACH, FL – Many discerning guests who travel to The Breakers Palm Beach crave the chance to disconnect from the demands of a stressful routine, and they count on The Spa at The Breakers as a destination for rejuvenation. The theme of ‘revitalization as necessity’ is not only present among the resort’s leisure travelers, who range from couples and friends on the getaway, to multigenerational families; but also evident among colleagues who escape from their offices to convene for organizational renewal.
Recognized as one of the top-five hotel/resort spas in North America, The Spa at The Breakers offers a luxurious haven for pampering and renewal that is complemented by its prized-oceanfront location. It is the proud recipient of the 2007 Mobil Four-Star Award and recognized as one of America’s Best Hotel and Resort Spas by Mobile Travel Guide, reflecting the resort’s commitment to deliver the best spa experience to its customers with services of the highest quality.
Situated adjacent to the resort’s Mediterranean-style Beach Club, the 20,000-square-foot indoor/outdoor spa exudes a relaxed feel of residential elegance that was recently enhanced with a complete refurbishment. There are 17 treatment rooms, including several Spa Suites that accommodate a series of services in one indulgent experience. Massages can also be enjoyed in outdoor settings such as private, day-use bungalows with views of the ocean, for an additional fee.
Many treatments incorporate sea and citrus ingredients indigenous to Florida, with the benefits of their purifying properties. The Breakers also established a successful partnership with Guerlain; The Spa at The Breakers was the first free-standing spa outside of Paris to offer the exclusive Guerlain Institut de Beauté facial and the Orchidée Impériale Facial, utilizing Guerlain’s highly effective skincare products and facial techniques. The menu of services is regularly updated with new and interesting signature treatments that focus on personalization. According to Mark Mantegna, Spa Director at The Breakers, “Each is a masterful interpretation of the spa ‘classics’ –
whether massage, facial or one-on-one fitness – that pampers and revitalizes with an extraordinary sense of caring, while tailored to each guest’s particular needs and preferences.”

One of the biggest distinctions of The Breakers Spa experience however, is the warmth of its environment, propelled by the inviting manner of its well-trained, highly skilled staff. It is the quintessential, therapist-driven spa. Consistent with the standards of this legendary Five Diamond resort, spa employees are assessed for their dedication and passion for guest comfort, to create an ambiance that is welcoming and calming, as much as they are evaluated for their technical expertise and skill in providing spa services. Over half of The Spa’s team members have been working there since it first opened in 1999, and they bring to each service an extraordinary amount of experience and sense of caring. “We know that our associates directly fuel guest satisfaction, and in turn, that is what makes our Spa the lucrative operation that it is,” said Mark Mantegna, Director of The Spa at The Breakers.
At check-in, guests are escorted to a locker area with steam and sauna (separate facilities for men and women) and receive a robe and slippers.
