Via Flagler by The Breakers: Boutiques, Restaurants and Galleries in Palm Beach

With the phased-opening of Via Flagler by The Breakers in 2020/2021, The Breakers Palm Beach expanded its commitment to revitalization off site, by investing in one of the community’s greatest historical assets — Royal Poinciana Way, Palm Beach’s original Main Street. Today, this timeless location has transformed into an enchanting gathering place for dining, shopping and more. An evolving, $28.3M, heritage-rich development, this alfresco plaza showcases contemporary, premier brands in a picturesque, open-air setting that attracts locals and visitors alike.

In late March 2022, Via Flagler will debut luxury French beauty brand Sisley Paris, to accompany Contessa Gallery, Frisbie Group, Henry’s Palm Beach, Lotus Hair Studio, Main Street by The Breakers and SHAN. This collection of upscale boutiques, eateries and galleries radiates the vitality of the island, and the iconic, casually-chic lifestyle for which Palm Beach and The Breakers are known.

Via Flagler marks the resort’s successful expansion of its portfolio of businesses, thanks to its devoted family ownership (heirs of founder Henry M. Flagler, circa 1896). With an entrepreneurial approach, this thriving, independent hotel has endured for over 125 years and is one of only 1,000-plus, family-owned businesses in America that is over 100 years old and still in the hands of its original owners. The Breakers also remains one of the longest, continuously operating businesses in the state of Florida.
