Some homes are more than just a place to stay—they hold a story. Breakers 1 is one of the few remaining Old Florida coastal cottages, standing strong against the tide of redevelopment. Restored after the 2024 hurricanes, this true beach cottage now features a brand-new kitchen, fresh updates, and the same unbeatable beachfront location that has made it a guest favorite for years.
Set directly on the Gulf of Mexico, Breakers 1 is all about simplicity, comfort, and the kind of beach vacation people often miss out on in today’s high-rise world.
