The wheelchair accessibility at the resort was very good. There is a generous ramp from the undercover parking garage to the reception floor. There are three lifts that service all the floors (big enough for a wheelchair and perhaps two other people). Generators keep the lifts in working order during load shedding. The outside passages (from the lifts to the units) are wide enough. All the units are classified as wheelchair friendly and in essence they are. The only problem is that the bathrooms can only be classed as tiny, with no chance of a wheelchair fitting through the door. On the 5th and 9th floors, there is a disabled bathroom outside in the passage, located between units 1 and 2 on those floors, that provide spacious facilities and a shower with a built-in shower chair. The lounge and outside space are accessible, with a disabled bathroom located on Floor 0 where the lounge/restaurant/spa/hairdresser are. The pathway outside to the beach and promenade is a little steep but quite do-able in a wheelchair. Likewise with the wooden pathway to the Hawaan forest, although there are some steep areas that require a push.

My family had an amazing time, resort very child friendly and the staff are world class. The unit itself was magnificent. My kids are water babies, so the pool and waterslides are a super bonus. Hubby and myself enjoyed the bar very much. We will definately recommend it to others.

Best family vacay resort! We are frequent guests at Breakers!This stay deserved a great review. Check in was so quick - Warm, friendly welcome, no queues and our room was ready. We had a beautiful seaview! The apartment was so clean and comfortable. The kids entertainment 10/10. In SA Great weather calls for a braai! We enjoyed the new braai area and the kids enjoyed hours of fun at the brand new jungle gym!

Unfortunately have to say my experience with the hairdresser in the Breakers Resort was not a good one. After sending an email specifically asking for a stylist that can give me a consultation that did not materialise. Somebody called and I can only assume that is the owner after sending an email. At first I was impressed about the quick call after my email enquiry. But when I walked into the salon the one person there had no idea what I was booked for. She was certainly not the problem - but something is off about whoever is making the bookings vs what capability is in the salon. The treatment I paid for the stylist had to go get help from the Spa because she was just not coping with everything coming at her in the salon. I feel sorry for the stylist and I hope this review will not result in a retaliation against her. But I will not go back, that is certain.

When we first booked in and went to our room, there was a jackhammer noise from above. It was horrendous & lasted a few hours. The studio room we were in was aweful. The bed was good but other than that, nothing was good. The sofa was totally worn out & uncomfortable. The kitchen was so small. The cupboards & microwave were so high I would need stepladder to reach. There was no room in the cupboards, so where are we supposed to put our groceries. There was no scatter rugs. The room just had no comfort at all. The bathroom was so small. The shower was over the bath. There was no anti-slip mat. I went to the reception to ask for one and the guy said he didn't think they have such a thing. I was going to the shop to buy one when my husband asked a lady at the reception about the non slip mat & she said she would organize this. The shower was high to climb in. The safety rail was in the wrong place. We are in our 70s. We could easily have had an accident in there. The telephone in the room was not working. There is no Wi-Fi in the rooms, When we had loadshedding, the generator only supplies power to the corridors & lifts. There is no emergency light in the rooms. We found this out in the middle of the night when the power went off and we were in pitch black. No-one told us about this. The restaurant, bar closes at 7.30pm. So when loadshedding starts at 8pm everyone goes to the lounge to get some light & a drink/coffee, but they are closed. If we had known about any of the above, we would never have booked in there. Absolute disgrace.
