FAQs & Curiosities

The Breakers condos are situated beachfront in the Forest Beach area. Coligny Beach Park is right outside your door. Don’t miss playing in the splash pad! (Yes, adults as well!)

Coligny Plaza is right there, too! You’ll find shops, restaurants, drinks, ice cream, and a Piggly Wiggly grocery store. There’s even a stage with a summer music series! You can catch the Breeze
Trolley here as well (April to Labor Day- check the schedule)

Is a car convenient? Yes. And many people share that they park upon arrival and don’t use their car again during their stay. It’s up to you!

Breakers 102 is on the side of the building and does not have a direct view of the ocean. You can just grab a peek of it through the trees next to the park (especially in the off-season with fewer leaves). It does not overlook the pool which can add to your sense of quiet and privacy. If you have excellent hearing, you may hear the waves when you’re on the balcony.

We hear you. None of us are fans of the typical sleeper sofa, either. That’s why we spent a couple of months shopping around, sitting on sofas, and opening them in stores to lie down and see how they feel. (We didn’t sleep in the store— we had to draw the line somewhere!)

The sofa we chose was recommended by a local friend who also hosts a property on the island. We find it to comfy for sitting/lounging and lying down while also being able to hold up to the wear & tear of beach life. We hope you’ll agree. (And yes, the mattress has a bed bug cover!) We also provide a separate mattress support you can use after you open the bed. It should be tucked behind the couch.

The sofa was purchased new and delivered to Breakers 102 in May 2024.

We have done our best to create a functional space that is comfortable, has what you need, and gives you space to store what you brought.

The bedroom has three drawers and a wardrobe with hangers flanking both sides of the bed, built-in side tables/shelves with electrical outlets, dimmable reading lights, and a bed frame with 17” of clearance underneath where you can store your bags and other belongings.

There are plenty of hooks throughout, including in the entryway, the bedroom, the bathroom, and on the balcony!  There’s a drying rack on top of the stacked washer/dryer that fits inside the shower or outside. In addition to hooks on the door, wall, and in the shower, the bathroom also has shelves and storage under the sink. And the kitchen is full of cabinets!  We’ve left some empty so you have a place for your snacks and essentials.

The Breakers units are smaller, intimate spaces. Our goal is to make it feel as comfortable & livable as possible in the space we have. It reminds us of a Manhattan or European apartment!

We have provided two new beach chairs for the 2025 season. We are hopeful guests will treat them with kindness so they can benefit all who visit!

We do not provide beach towels or toys. There is a toy borrowing bin in Coligny Park next door and plenty of places to purchase if desired.

We like to think Breakers 102 has that essence of beach without being blatantly “beach.” The style is more unwind & relax than shells & rope signs.

We’ve tried to “ditch the kitsch” so the villa feels more like a cozy, inspiring retreat than a college beach week party. Let us know how it feels to you!
