First time at an adults only resort and it was fantastic. Staff were extremely friendly and anticipated our needs very well. Food and drinks and overall atmosphere of the resort was fun and upbeat. The night club and the entertainment were both refreshing and consistent, which was nice because we always had something to do.

We found everything to be clean, upkept and pleasing to the eye. The rooms, grounds, and restaurants were beautiful. The food was better than most all inclusives, the entertainment was fantastic! We definitely recommend and would return.

We had a wonderful time at this lovely resort. Most of all the service at the entire place was above and beyond our expectations. Everyone was so helpful, cheerful and the goal was to please. The food was great - and so many choices - to keep us happy. There was an abundance of choices for entertainment nightly. The flight with Air Transat was problem free and organized. We would definitely recommend this adult resort to others. Nancy

Breathless Riviera Cancun was a wonderful resort. Was it perfect, no, but we had a great time. The staff is what makes this resort great, they go above and beyond. The restaurants were all great, buffet for breakfast was good, the nightly dinner restaurants were all excellent. If you are coming for the beach this is not a resort for you, as the beach is partially washed up, and lots of seaweed. You need to wake up early to secure your chair at the pool as chairs fill up before 8am. The Xcelerate pool was very chilly and music was excessively loud, so we preferred the energy pool. We had booked a swim out room, however the pool water was extremely cold so it was unusable, so save your $$$. The cellular reception is poor to non existent, so if you need to have your phone nearby, don't count on cellular service. Wifi was also pretty spotty. The rooms were clean, shower nice and big. I was impressed with all the age ranges of guests, from those who were barely 19 to over 60.

Just returned home from a stay at Breathless Riviera. The property was immaculate, the staff members were always friendly and very accommodating. I had a few minor issues in my room, such as a broken hair dryer and defective safe, but overall, I'm very satisfied. As a solo female traveler, I always felt safe on the grounds and walking back to my room. The best bar "The Bar" has amazing staff. A big shout out to Mario, Raul and Guillermo for their excellent attention to details, friendliness and custom drinks. If you don't enjoy loud music, consider a room on the Xhale side of the hotel.

This resort is fantastic! I can't say enough good things about it. I usually stay at Secrets resorts, but Breathless is just as amazing. The staff, starting with Andrea who made check-in a breeze, were all so friendly and helpful. Pascual, Cesar and Giovani at the buffet were particularly polite and kind, and the guys at the pool bar, Ciro, Daniel, Melqui were incredible. The food was delicious, and the resort itself is beautiful and spacious, with two pools offering different vibes – one for partying with a DJ all day, and the other for a more relaxed atmosphere. The entertainment team, including Omar, David, and Julietta, were wonderful. The cleanliness of the resort was top-notch, although there was some seaweed on the beach for the first couple of days due to the weather, but the staff worked hard to keep it clean. the beach became fantastic when the weather improved, with no seaweed in sight. Overall, I highly recommend this resort and will definitely be returning!

It was our first visit and won’t be our last! Nice spacious rooms, punctual housekeeping, beautiful grounds. Special shoutout to our server Julio - he provided top-level service that we were so grateful for! Sad to say goodbye to the resort and our new friend Julio, but looking forward to returning.

We stayed here and was very pleased with the service. The view was beautiful. The room was very comfortable. The service was impressive. Thank you to the very talented staff. The only thing I would suggest to anyone booking would be to include your travel to and from the hotel to the airport. We found out the hard way. Expensive taxis Thank you to the staff

This is the fifth time I’ve been to this resort I have an amazing time always something to do any events shows and theme parties. Multiple pools to choose from with one crazy party pool who can ask for anything more

The hotel was extremely clean in restaurant area hallways, and common areas, well staffed and everyone was attentive. SPA WAS AMAZING Food was quite good. except for sea food - im a seafood lover it was extremely fishy i couldnt finish any seafood plate We had a swimout swim which was quite musty, beautiful room but smell was off- also no fitted sheets on beds only use a flat sheet ontop of mattress that isnt large enough to cover the mattress which has no cover on it and was dirty looking. The loudness on the energy side is beyond normal if you are on that side of the hotel book a different room you cant nap in your room before 6pm as you are basically in a night club the quite side of the beach was nice, the swim up pool is nice but the hot tub should be hot not same temp as pool. Water activities were included except their employees was charging people - brought this up with management and they dealt with it but told me a few times no way and i was mistaken - which i wasnt. i did have a fun time but i wouldnt stay at a breathless again its really for college spring break kids 24/7

The room , amenities and the staff were really great. The buffet was great but specialty restaurants were ordinary . The two pools were super fun but the ocean was filled with fresh and rotten sea weeds. The resort was doing their best to clean up the beach but couldn’t win over nature.

Hôtel was great but disappointed whit air transat no one there to welcome us and we never see one there all time was there xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Breathless Riviera Cancun is a beautiful resort. Rooms are spectacular. Beds are comfortable. Shower is spectacular, pictures do not do it justice. Buffet food was always hot and plentiful. I would have preferred that the Mexican restaurant serve real Mexican food, otherwise they were all very good. The pool was very nice and warm, get a chair early because it fills up fast. I have two complaints. This one is fixable... They tell you when you arrive at the front desk, this is a party resort... OK... North pool has party music from 1pm to 6pm, the south pool is quieter. Not true... Thump thump music all day. Day 5 they put on regular rock and country music, the entire pool cheered and applauded! The supervisor told the entertainment guy to put it back to Thump Thump, the crowd BOOO'ed READ THE CROWD! Thump thump music is ok but keep it to the right crowd at the right time. Eating dinner is not the right crowd either! Everyone we talked to felt the same way. Second complaint is not fixable, nature prevails... the beach was covered with seaweed, it kept us away from the beach, seaweed smells when in direct sun. I give the resort 5 gold stars, I would have given it 4 Diamonds if the music was more of what their clients wanted.

Great rooms Good entertainment Food 3/5 disappointing Room service cold and disappointed Ocean not swimmable Location from airport good Drinks good Need to upgrade food and Conceirge useless Cost was expensive for 4 nights for non holiday time Been to cheaper and better resorts in Mexico with 5/5 food This is only for drinks and party

We spent 11 fantastic days at Breathless Riviera Cancun. Rooms were very clean and checked twice a day (special thanks to our room maid, Chris). Staff very friendly and helpful. Restaurants- we have used mainly Spoon for breakfast and lunch, plenty food and very attentive staff, special thanks to hostesses Julissa, Axel, Crisantema, also to restaurant staff, especially Pascual, Joakin and Angel. The overall experience at Breathless was amazing, thank you all the staff!

Me and my wife had the best time ever visiting this hotel... We met some amazing people and were treated like ROYALTY! Food was amazing, people were so generous and caring we will certainly be back. I want to extend a special thank you to Xavier our bell hop who was super accommodating and helpful and to Pascal our amazing server who made us feel so welcome and special! I wish I got everyone's name because there wasn't one bad experience for us The staff at breathless are just so kind and wonderful. 10 out of 10 resort with so much to do, entertainment was phenomenal and once again the food was Devine. The rooms were impeccable with great views and room service was on time and bang on. Our rooms were cleaned daily with a service you just cant compete with. Once again thank you Breathless for such an amazing introduction to beautiful Mexico. We will be back. SOON! Jonny and Sara :) xoxo

Nice, but wouldn't return. Pros. Staff amazing, nice pool close to beach. Cons, No indoor lobby bar, rough pool bottom (it hurts), cold food served too often. A little dirty in hallways, Wine was served warm often. Been to many resorts in Mexico and this was middle of the road.

The hotel was ok. They weren't very strict on covid 19 precautions when it came to wearing masks. You could enter restaurants without a mask with the exception of the buffet. We were surprised by this. The buffet bathroom was not very clean, one toilet not flushing, water spout in the sink was literally dripping water so pretty hard to rinse your hands. The paper towel dispenser did not work and had to use toilet paper. I went to the buffet washroom twice during the week and it was exactly the same. No repairs were done and it was still very dirty. Ordered room service for our last breakfast before returning home. They came 1/2 hour earlier than they were supposed to and had both our orders wrong. I mean completely wrong. Not what we had ordered at all. Our bathroom door did not close so we had to put a garbage can in the door to keep it closed. The wooden divider on the balcony was detached at one end and caused very loud noises and made it very hard to sleep especially during our week as it was very windy. The food was mediocre at best with the exception of the Italian restaurant. The wine was always warm and the food was always cold at the other restaurants. Thankfully, the staff was very accommodating and the entertainment staff were very good. It was still very nice week but it isn't a resort that I would go back to or recommend.

We loved this resort. So much. Clean. Friendly. Has everything you want. Love the layout and we had a lovely swim out room in 6 building. Food was great and service was awesome. We enjoyed the whole resort this past week. COVID has changed a few things but understandable and we are understanding and polite Canadians. These guys work hard. All day. Drinks were always flowing and music going. Wink was fun every night. Bites was great for mid day but that beach side pizza was unreal awesome. Thanks Cesar. He took such good care of us. Wilberth at the Bites area bar was awesome and knew what we wanted and we were never waiting. Dael on the entertainment team was so great and made us feel so welcomed. Loved no bracelets and no dinner reservations except Habachi grill. Was nice to just pick and choose and go. Italian was awesome both times. We loved Hibachi night! So great. 24 hour room service came in so handy for late night snacks and pre ordering breakfast to our room. Also the AMR app was fabulous to literally request or book anything all week. Thanks to the fabulous staff and new friends! We can’t wait to be back.

Great hotel and entertainment staff was polite and entertaining pool staff as well we loved this place me and my girl friend and will be back the beach was very clean and well maintained ................

The Hotel was beautiful, different events happening every night and day. The Rooms were Great Came fully stocked with mini bar and big beds. The staff were amazing always around when needed. Would return!

This resort is newer and in great shape. The staff were super attentive and very friendly, food was good for the most part. We received a "raw" hamburger - super rare/red - so be sure to request how you want your meat cooked. The resort was not very full when we were there (went with my husband) making it very easy to get a good location at any pool or beach and no line up to enter any restaurants (a bonus)! This is a good resort for couples, friends, special occasion celebrations. They had a few odd restrictions, we found strange they wouldn't let you turn the chairs in the pool areas to face the sun, even if you were not blocking anyone, baffled me (told at the Xhale pool). We were told it was upper management rules. They also have a fairly large section blocked off (1/3rd of the pool) in the Xcelerated pool at the end of the resort that is reserved for anyone who will pay for champagne (minimum bottle was over $100 US increasing to $4,000), nuts!! I only saw a few people in that section throughout the week. It was explained that it was to bring in more profits for the resort. The entertainment/DJ is in that area, if want to be in that section buy a bottle of champagne or you have to remain in the pool, very odd. Seemed to be more than half ages 18-35 but there were some more our age which is 45-55 when we were there! If you have been to a Dreams or another Breathless you can expect the same type of resort and service. We've been to a few and find them very similar though not the crazy rules/restrictions. We travel 3-4 times over each winter. Overall it is a nice resort, read all reviews before deciding, this was just mine opinion.

The service and each and every member of the staff was just excellent! The facilities are also awesome, everything you need is always there. Great views of the ocean, the xhale area was quiet and relaxing. Food is ok. Mexican restraunt was excellent.

Wasn’t sure what to expect t but I was pleasantly surprised. The hotel was really nice - rooms were great... good ac, clean, comfortable, spacious. The resort is a little ways away from Cancun, but unless your plan is to be in the city, you don’t need it. The hotel definitely has a constant “club” vibe, with each music, but there are areas to escape, and the people do not always reflect that same vibe. It just gives a lot of energy. There are all age ranges and lots to do, including activities, great food and drinks, spa and relaxation. The entertainment staff were amazing, and I would come back for them - they really make the stay so enjoyable. 2 things - it’s best to upgrade. We got in a room right outside the disco and it was Unreasonably loud and very difficult to get a good sleep. It didn’t ruin our stay, but I’d absolutely make sure to stay in the quieter area so I can choose when I want noise next time. The pool area is also “lined” with a really rough stone... it will ruin your bathing suit bottoms and it’s kind of rough on the skin (and manicures ladies!). Again, it’s not a dealbreaker but it was really tough for a whole week. And we could have gone to the beach (small but sufficient) but just enjoyed the pool.

Food was good, drinks were good, entertainment was the same every day just different outfits, couldn’t move lawn beds at all which was annoying because they were not always facing the sun just found this resort had too many rules

To sit around the entertainment at the pool you had to buy a bottle of champagne no if ands or butts otherwise you had to stay in the pool at the exhilarate The champagne bottles started at $160 US to a crazy amount of 12,000 US they try and nickel and dime you for hanging around the pool when the shows were on It was the same dancers every day dancing the same but in different outfits lol To sit around the dance floor at the nightclub bar you also had to buy champagne or you had to stand way in the back overall experience would never go back , nice place but give up trying to sell a champagne bottle

I chose Breathless Riviera Cancun to have the best of all worlds: a packed activities schedule, ample relaxation, tasty dining experiences, and friendly customer service. I traveled alone but never felt lonely with the kind and attentive recreation, bar, and wait staff. The resort is fairly new with beautiful, clean, modern rooms. The resort is on the smaller side, but there were plenty of dining and bar options. The scallops at the French restaurant and the NY strip at the steakhouse were my favourites. The entertainment was awesome; I enjoyed the bubble party and the daytime pool and poolside fitness classes. I'm not much of a night club person but after dark there was great music (sometimes live), lights, and a wonderful crowd of fellow happy vacationers that I did enjoy briefly before going to sleep. I went in November when there was intermittent rain but still had a great time. My only words of caution are: (1) Please be careful when the floors outside of the rooms are wet because they can be quite slippery. (2) I'm from Vancouver so I know and love Asian food. The resort's Asian-themed restaurant's hibachi grill was a lot of fun and definitely something to reserve for but I'd suggest saving the sushi for when you're back at home.

Probably one of the best resorts! Everything and everyone was amazing from the second we walked in they made us feel so special! The resort is very clean and kept very well, if anything would spill they were ready to clean! My best friend and I spent most of our time on the activities side since we did not want to leave the resort we needed things to do and The E-TEAM did not disappoint they were absolutely amazing! Ulisses is the team supervisor and he clearly knows what he’s doing.. Sandra, Moon, Natalia, Dora and Alexandro were my favourite they had energy they were fun, they always wanted to make sure we were having fun and truly we had a blast they really know what they are doing I would go back simply for them!! Truly an amazing entertainment team!! Twist and squeeze had two bartenders both named Fernando and they were 110% the best!! They made great drinks consistently! They were so attentive and they will make you a drink till the last second and even a little past the closing time! The restaurants were impeccable but our favourite restaurant for many reasons was the French one! The food was amazing (I recommend the beef medallion) but the service truly was mind blowing, Misael was our server both times and he is absolutely extraordinary 10/10 would recommend!! Kibbeh was also a great one and Sergio will make sure you leave with a smile on your face!! We are definitely coming back!!!

Everything was good we loved everything about the resort and we loved are room very nice we would recommend this resort to everyone. The beach was alright they do a good job on getting the seaweed out.

We stayed in the exhale section of the resort. was exactly as promised, nice and quiet. The good: Resort was beautiful, rooms were nice and roomy, food was great. resort wasn't overly big so it was easy to walk to everything. Entertainment was really cool. Pools were great, and each one has it's own vibe, party, energetic or relaxed (relaxed is only for xhale). if you stay in xhale make sure you do the hydro therapy sessions, it was super cool experience. It's also very close to the airport so that was convenient. The bad: Even though they are always working on clearing the seaweed, there was always sea weed in the ocean so not many people swimming in the ocean. There were a few hiccups like the room key not working, or the ipad in the room not working, but they concierge was pretty quick to fix those issues. we didn't get turn down service or our fridge refilled everyday, but we just called down (for the fridge part at least) and they sent room service up to fill it. also fridge wasn't very cold and that seemed to be a constant complaint for lots of people staying there. Although they advertise as all included (including tips) make sure you tip, you get better service. we even had one staff at the buffet complain about us not tipping him (we forgot our cash in the room that morning) The ugly: not a resort you want to go to if you are into water sports. we couldn't snorkel because of all the sea weed, you could kayak and paddle board and got to go on a little sail boat which was fun. no scuba center or anything like that so definitely not the place if you want to scuba or snorkel. Tips if you stay in Xhale: Make sure you get the bottle of champagne and the 200 ml bottle of belvedere vodka they promise on the website. ( we had some difficulty getting it, had to call down several times) take advantage of the hydrotherapy ( on the website it says once per stay but when we got there it was once per day so that was a nice surprise). you are also supposed to get a beach bag in your room that you can keep so make sure you get that, it's kind of cute) overall a nice resort but i wouldn't stay there again.

Amazing resort with top notch service. Very high quality, clean and great food. Endless activities - the E team made things fun always. I would highly recommend this resort to anyone and will definitely be going back.

I usually never write reviews but I feel that based on a few of the issues; a review is warranted ...The check in process is a little too long; they don’t offer you welcome drinks; water etc while you wait, you wait in line with everyone else checking into the resort With one girl doing all the check ins with many others staff standing around, after you check in you have to see another person that takes you thru all the specials the resort offers; spa, dinner specials etc... you then have to wait again for your luggage and to be shown to your room; still 1.15 hours later we were not offered a drink while standing and sitting around. The staff doing the check in were not overly happy or friendly ... I thought this would be a place they want to leave you with a good first impression ... We got to our room only to find out we have two double beds: bearing in mind that we are away as a couple for the first time without kids in years so this was a let down; when we asked about a king bed we were told they don’t have one in the resort available - BUT the next check in guy tells us the hotel is at 65% capacity? Doesn’t make sense... on day 3 of 5 they called us and asked if we wanted to move... we choose to stay where we were to avoid spending time packing up agains and unpacking when we only had a 5 day stay, we wanted to make the most of our time not spend it shuffling rooms. After checking in we went to the jacuzzi pool and went to get a drink; walked up and got totally shafted and ignored and were told they are closed! That they closed that bar at 4pm!! Insane! Two bars- swim up and main pool by 5pm were shut down and no pool side servers around ... we had to walk to the grill bar to get drinks to bring back and sit in the jacuzzi with! We didn’t think much of it just went on with our day that maybe it’s the end of the day and that’s why staff are grumpy/ bar is closed etc; this wasn’t the case all week we got VERY little good service unless we had a 5$ bill in hand; and we do tip at every drink delivery even if we wait an hour for service... we aren’t cheap people ... but the service was subpar all week and I think that bothered us most.. we truly had high expectations after reading so many good reviews ... it was a let down ... The rooms are very clean and well kept; the resort itself is amazingly beautiful, beaches have a ton of sea grass but they maintain the ocean front very well... the poolside entertainment is on the lower end and no nightly entertainment except one night in the theatre. The spa gift card we got from Wendy for 200$ was not valid for a massage we were ONLY allowed to use 40$ of the gift card towards the service .... again totally letdown as I wasn’t going to pay 150$ American for a massage and only 40$ of the gift certificate was able to be applied .. it was a total “spring” break feel by day 3 with the level of partying and drunks; this part doesn’t bother me because everyone should have fun while they vacation! The food made both my husband sick and in the bathroom most of the vacation .... again I don’t ever post reviews but I’ve never been to a resort where I felt so many things went wrong and the service was ultimately kinda blah .... we left feeling pretty let down ...

Breathless was an awesome resort to go to if you want to have a good time that involves both partying and quiet beach time. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the party, head to the beach and while you can still hear some of the music it's not nearly as loud and invasive. It had a good variety for everyone, if wanting to rest and relax, party or both. We got an ocean view room it was nice. There was a good amount of activities throughout the day from beach activities provided by the E-team to casino night and karaoke. I also get the impression that this is a weekenders resort with it filling up to capacity on Friday - Sunday and with Monday and Tuesday being quieter days. We were there Thursday to Tuesday and definitely noticed the change in population. Food represented a good menu that all inclusive resorts have. I would highly recommend the flambe show at La Coquette with Antonio, off menus items (ask Esmeralda, she was fantastic) at the Strip, Nook had awesome gelato and chocolate croissants. The staff was amazing and very helpful if needing anything. Key stars that stand out include: Lisa and Moon (from E-Team) were great with the water aerobics and made it a lot of fun. They also played the most random Texas Holdem and Blackjack rules (resort rules I guess :)) that were a blast and we totally got swindled by Moon at darts. Mack was an awesome bartender at Xhale who was ready to make your stay perfect from check in to check out. Always attentive and a smile on his face. Angel at the swing bar slinging great mango whiskey and other specialty drinks with amazingly good wood fired pizza. Manuel at Spoons always made you feel like you're eating at home with a put of coffee in one hand, and a shot of tequila in another if that's your thing. Overall we really enjoyed our stay there and would recommend going for both couples and singles alike!

The hotel was just breathless! Very clean and so much attention to detail! Workers and staff everywhere all the time working very hard to ensure all the guests have a beautiful place from the beach to the front gates! Each was very clean at all times. The only down sides I would have to say is that their 24 hour buffet isn’t 24 hours. It closes at 4pm daily and the main restaurants are open only at 6 so you have to go to the beach pool area for burgers etc. Room service was great but always 1 hour wait so make sure you aren’t starved! Also on the last night before we left I had put my two piece bikini on a chair on our swim up patio to dry, which is accessable only to the other 4 rooms adjacent to us by pool, when I woke up in the morning to get the suit, my bottoms were missing. I checked the pool and the area around, also in our room in case I miss placed it. I waited till getting home to check my baggage thoroughly and yup they were taken. I don’t know why someone would take someone’s bikini thongs, I know they were super cute cause I bought them just for this trip, Anyhow other than that I have no complaints about this place! Don’t get talked into the “club” presentation. We were told it would take 90 min but 2 1/2 hours later, 😳 but they paid for our excursion and a show so I guess it was worth it.

Party hotel do not go here. We were so desperate to leave I tried to go home early but no help from anyone. I felt like I was being held hostage. I am going to leave it at that. The people were good though

This resort was absolutely gorgeous. This fairly new resort is flawless. The room was the prettiest room that we have ever stayed in. The huge glass shower is very luxurious and the iPad to run the room is unique. The food was delicious, beautifully presented, and served by very attentive waiters. We were impressed with the fact that every restaurant greeter asked if anyone in our party had allergies. We were in the Exhale club which I highly recommend. All staff went out of their way to make our stay special. I also liked the fact that it was a smaller resort which made it easy to walk wherever you wanted to go. No need to catch a cart or train. We will definitely return to this resort.

The hotel was very well laid out. We stayed at the exhale and the service was fantastic. The grounds were kept clean and tidy. The food was fantastic and the main buffet was exceptionally good. Housekeeping a mini bar staff kept everything up-to-date everyday. The rooms we're modern up-to-date and spacious. I'd highly recommend this resort. Gary

Rooms and food was excellent! The pools were also wonderful but the beach had a lot of seaweed. The staff was very friendly and courteous. All of the restaurants had a good selection of food and the service was great. Highly recommend the Teppanyaki at the Silks restaurant.

I have travelled all over the carribean and have twice visited Breathless Punta Cana so I thought I would give the Cancun Riviera a try. I would not give it as glaring a review. The property has great staff and they work hard to make you feel welcome. That can not be said about the management who are rude and abrupt. I was charged for extra cleaning of my room because of a cut I had that stained sheets and a pillow. This was made much more agrevating by fact that most days I had to call to get room cleaned. The food has some high points with Italian and Japanese restaurants. The Mexican and the Buffet were very bad. I am not a food complainer either. Bartenders were amazing and top shelf liquor was available. Property very nice. There are two accessible pools for those that don't stay at Xhale club. One pool was so high volume techno beat with same music everyday you got a headache. The other pool was very crowded with very drunk people. I am a guy who likes to have a good time and let loose but this place was almost like spring break. I really love the Mexican people and the workers at this resort. The management who are stubborn don't listen not so much!

The hotel, staff and service was exceptional. Very clean and friendly.....Food was fantastic and great entertainment for all......Loved it and would do it again anytime..... Highly recommended.......great resort for singles aged 25-70

Most of the resort was excellent....there was a few things I didn't like. They did not have enough evening shows. Punta Cana Breathless had way more shows and entertainment compared to Cancun Breathless and the entertainers were more hands on with the guests. The fridge in the room was warm so nothing cold to drink which was not good we did ask them to fix the fridge but nothing was done. The power was out for over 3 hours on one of the days so going to the washroom in the dark was challenging. Other than a few minor things our over all trip was amazing!!

We were very fortunate to get a pretty good price on this vacation as we booked it only 10 days before departure. The highs - the pools were great...clean, heated and lots of activity. Service was exceptional in all areas from bars, to restaurants, housekeeping, etc. Food was good, not excellent but we were certainly never hungry. Rooms were amazing - very clean, comfortable and incredible shower! Only 20 minute shuttle to airport and ground transportation was very well organized. The lows - the beach was pristine and well maintained but you could not go in the Ocean due to the seaweed. Pools are on the beach so its not a big deal. Dinner in specialty restaurants (especially French) took inordinately long time. All in all, a great value for under $2k....but I dont think I would pay more than that.

The good: Modern hotel, nice rooms, many restaurants to choose from and the food is pretty good. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The bad: The beach is terrible. Nobody swims in the ocean at this resort. The water is filled with sea weeds and the water is an awful brown color. You can't stroll along the ocean front much beyond the hotel because the coastline is filled with rotting seaweed and rocks. The music played at this resort is very annoying after a while. It's a constant droning of drumbeat mixes with no vocals. It's everywhere you go, from the gym to the poolside. In the Xcelerate section of the hotel, the music is so loud that it's unpleasant to sit in the beach chairs alongside the pool. I was a DJ for many years and I can tell you that the volume level exceeded what would be normal in this situation. Your ears should not hurt after sitting by the pool for an hour. The disco bar is no different, the music is excessively loud (bring a DB meter and you'll see what I mean) but that's more to be expected than at the poolside. If you are the type that spends all day with a drink in your hand in the pool, you'll fit right in with this crowd. Lots of people having a good time, yelling and cheering in the fine dining restaurants, celebrating birthdays or pre-wedding parties. You are also pretty isolated at this hotel, other than one other hotel next door, there is nothing for many miles. You have to drive for 20 minutes before you encounter civilization.

Both the staff and the facility are fantastic at Breathless Riviera Cancun. The resort is brand new and features all of the modern amenities that you can think of. We were also very pleased with the ambiance and the food at the restaurants. The only negative on our trip was the beach (rocky and lots of seaweed).

The scenery, service and look of the hotel was amazing, but the hotel acoustics were made for a concert environment in that if you need sleep you can only really do so between 4 a.m. - 9 a.m. when the music stops and everyone goes "home"..unless of course you can sleep while being out at a night club. When I got to my room after being awake and travelling for hours I was completely exhausted but couldn't nap due to the noise that came from all sides. The almost constant tech/electeonic music pumping, people talking, yelling, squealing that I could hear in the room was extremely frustrating and it grated on my nerves due to a lack of sleep. Closing the curtains, covering my ears and putting a towel at the bottom of the door did nothing to drown out the noise. Having the entertainment everywhere is a poor design. I've never been to any hotel or resort where the entertainment wasn't contained or separate from the rooms. The joke is I chose an adult only hotel to avoid the noise of kids...walking down the beach past the other hotels that had kids seemed quieter. I waited some time to take this trip and could have gone anywhere so I was very excited when I arrived and saw the beauty of the place but that quickly turned to the biggest vacation disappointment I've ever had. I'd only recommend this hotel to someone who wants to be up all day and night partying. I have a very demanding profession and lots of personal responsibilities so in my getaways I need a balance and physical divisions between sleep and play so I highly doubt I'd ever return.

We arrived at the hotel Mid afternoon and were promptly greeted with champagne and cool towels. We stayed on the xhale club which was perfect for those wanting a quiet area. Loved every minute and would definitely return .

This resort has everything you want good food and entertainment three pools to match your mood ...the party pool was mostly self absorbed selfie takers but the other pools were very good atmosphere Food was good and the restaurants being open till 11 have a decent chance to go to dinner after a hard day of relaxing

Lots of action (if you want it it). Beautifully clean resort with amazing staff. Always joking and having a good time the staff seem like they really enjoy what they do which is refreshing. The restaurants were awesome and we were able to visit each one. We never ate at the buffet in the evening but I'm sure it was good as the breakfasts were great. Foam party was lots of fun (ask my husband lol). We are older but fit in just fine and didn't fine it over the top. We had one loud night due to rude neighbors but the front desk staff moved us immediately without question. Great experience ☺😊

Beautiful resort, amazing service, great food, yummy drinks. The only issue I had was the noise level and not having a clear understanding of the different types of resort rooms and areas. So let me help you out... Excelerate Area - this is considered the party zone. I knew this ahead of time and made sure I didn't book in this area. Allure - I booked my room in the Allure zone thinking I would be no where near excelerate. Once I got to the resort, I realized that one side of allure makes up the U shape of the excelerate area. My beautiful, corner ocean front suite was right above the DJ booth. After talking to the Front Desk, I decided to move rooms (sad to lose my corner suite but more than happy to have some peace and not hear the Techno beat that starts at 9 am). Xhale - This area is considered the quiet zone (and it is quiet) but comes at a premium cost. I could have switched over to this area for an additional $150 USD/night. I travelled on my own and felt safe in the resort and beach areas. Security is posted at either end of the beach to monitor activities and resort guests (no bracelets, so nice). I met a lot of wonderful people from all over – mostly Canadians, Americans and some Europeans. Due to north winds and the lagoons nearby, the ocean was not the usual turquoise that the Mayan Riveria is known for, it was dark and wavy. Not sure how long this will persist but it was about the same for the 7 days of my stay (Nov 11-18)

We had the privilege of staying at this beautiful resort last week in Cancun. Words cannot describe all the features and benefits of this resort. From check-in, to the beach, to the pools and over-the-top guestrooms, I encourage you to check this resort out and let TripCentral assist you. Rachel Guindon of TripCentral here in Hamilton took care of every need for us and personally took care of just about everything for my husband and I. Again, when calling TripCentral in Hamilton, please ask for Rachel - you won't be disappointed. The staff (and there are hundreds of them) are probably some of the best we have experienced at a resort and there are just too many to name in this review. The beach is endless, the food and beverages are amazing and the grounds are spotless.

Beautiful resort with amazingly friendly staff. All restaurants were amazing, especially Silkcity (we went 3 times at this restaurant). Rooms were very clean spacious. Would go back to this resort in a heartbeat.

First and foremost this was a spectacular resort. I will list the pros and cons: Pros: -Stunning grounds and rooms -Extremely pleasant, accommodating, kind staff. Language not an issue. -Very clean and safe. No worries about use or drinking of water but did stay away from trying water from room tap. -Weather amazing. Even when some times overcast and cloudy/ bouts of rain, you need SPF as rays very strong. -Nighttime brought with it romantic feel when walking grounds with lighting and fireplaces throughout resort. -Fluent transport through airport and between airport and resort -Only about a 20 min car ride from airport to resort. -Kibbeh restaurant amazing staff and food. Breakfast unreal. X-hale only. -Xhale pool amazing from the service to the romantic and relaxing feel. People who use this pool were fun, respectful, and mature. Cons: -Food at restaurants so-so. Loved the Italian. Never went to French though. -Room service surprisingly good for dinner anyway. Breakfast not so good. -Swim out room pretty but would not do again. Water in swim out very cold. Also may have comtributed to the extreme 24-7 humidity. Shower in middle room didn't help either. -Needed a makeup mirror in bathroom. I know this sounds petty but mirror very deep away from edge counter and lighting poor around room to use other mirrors. -Fitness Center definitely geared for males. Lowest weight 7.5 lbs. and machines scaled for larger people. Nice and clean and up to date though. -Xcelerate pool brings with it a different crowd. I didn't think I would mind the fact that there are topless women but it did have the feel of a cheesy swinger-like area with women up dancing topless and kind of strutting their stuff. Either way one knows when going to that pool that that may have that feel I guess so personal choice. -pushy attempts to cell spa coupons. Pleasant interactions yet don't want to be co tinually asked if we want to go to the spa. -Beach not good at all. We knew this going into the trip but as not beach people decided to book anyway. Thing we didn't consider was negative effect on view and inability to walk he beach in am or during time there. -nightlife so-so. Show each night at 10-1030 in theatre like room and the After Dark fun smaller venue for dancing. Really resort winds down by 11. Overall I definitely would recommend this resort. Was a wonderful 7 days there. Resort has a lot to offer and staff delightful. The 3 pool choices offers something for everyone or, in our case, the opportunity to mix it up some.

Everything was so beautiful from accommodations to grounds to beach.to pools to restaurants. Have only one criticism and that is that you play music in each restaurant appropriate to the country whose cooking is served. This would set the atmosphere. Forget the rock n roll and heavy base.

Clean, fun resort with fabulous food! BUT the all night pool/beach party on Saturdays is no joke. Our room was in the 5000 building on the party pool side and the music blared ALL NIGHT until 7am. Even with earplugs it was like sleeping next to a loud speaker. There were only a handful of people down at the party, so not sure why they needed to have the music that loud all night long!...I can understand if we were the only ones not at the party, but there was barely anyone. Other people who had rooms surrounding this pool reported sleeping on the floor in the bathroom, hoping the added door would insulate from the noise...it did not! The hotel staff were actually quite rude and didn't seem to care much about the complaints they were receiving...just laughed and/or ignored you. We were told that the party is also for local people coming in from other areas, who paid a small fee to come party at our resort for the night. We had a tour booked for the next morning with a 7am pickup time, which we went up to the lobby and had the hotel staff change at 4:30am, since we had not yet had a wink of sleep at this point. The beach isn't great. It is hard (almost like concrete with a bit of sand on top). There are hedges that partially block the view from the beach chairs and the water has quite a few rocks. The hotel grounds and pool areas are very clean. The service by the pool is good...always someone walking around asking if you want a drink...but there are also many bars so you can easily grab a drink yourself. The hotel rooms are very clean and comfortable. The food and service in the a la carte restaurants is very good and no reservations are required...first come, first serve. The alcohol is all premium brands. We were there for 10 days (arrived Sunday morning and departed Tuesday evening) and really enjoyed our stay up until the pool party night...the lack of sleep threw off the last few days of our trip and the lack of concern from the staff was off-putting. The entertainment staff were very friendly, but the rest of the staff in the lobby, coffee shop and some bars were very rude. We would not go back to this resort.

O.K. finally found the resort that has it all !!!! Seriously, a quiet area to soak in the sun and surroundings ; Another, somewhat crowd mixer and yes, the "party Pool" !!! So you are the boss of deciding what mood you're in and what you are looking for at that very second and minute of each and every day..... totally kept bouncing back and forth from the party pool area to the relaxed area............just not as young as we used to be........L.O.L. Definitely , would recommend to all adult age groups.........especially those who like a little fun party

This is the best resort I have ever had the pleasure of staying at. So much fun, all top notch amenities great food and the service was absolutely top notch! We simply just did not have enough time within our 7 days to see and do all this amazing resort has to offer next year we are going for 10.

The hotel was new, the staff extremely friendly and there were lots of them. The food was excellent and the drinks were top notch. The entertainment was constant and fantastic! I would definately go back.

We wanted a higher quality experience and we got it! We stayed for 10 nights. Every staff we encountered were happy and super friendly. The atmosphere was very laid back and comfortable, young, and social. Expect to make friends easily. Food was amazing, even the buffet was super impressive quality and choices. Freshly squeezed limes made all the margaritas. We recommend upgrading rooms, to the excell club for sure. Gym was great. We found a perfect 10 km run that we did almost every day from the resort that ran parallel to the coastline. This hotel line makes you do a long informational session upon your first visit to try to sell you on an Unlimited Membership. It's a really nice hotel, so I'm not surprised people sign up. But, don't let them take longer than 1 or 1.5 hrs if you don't want to sign up. They will try really hard to get a yes from you. But it wasn't for us and you can leave the meeting after 1.5 hrs and still get a $200 coupon for the amazing spa! Go here! Do it now!

Fabulous resort and experience! The staff bent over backwards to accommodate us. Food, accommodations, pools, and service, first class. My only disappointment was the condition and lack of the beach space. Lastly, our representatives from Transat and Tripcentral were awesome!!!

Rooms and pools were very clean! Food choices were endless- Love that you didn't have to make any reservations Staff was incredible, very helpful, energetic and aim to please Excursions were easy to book through hotel Always activities going on

The previous posting were very accurate, there really isn't a beach to sit or walk on, the music at night can be to much to bare, and location wise it isn't close to any amenities to go too But the food and service is excellent, the rooms are kept up and well maintained, people seem friendly and willing to help

I am happy to write a review for Breathless in Cancun...it was truly an amazing resort! First I have to say the people who work there were all the most friendly staff I have ever encountered at a resort! A special shout out to Andre, Gaby, Migel and Gisele. ...they made our time there extra special 😍 The resort itself is so beautiful!! The pools with the sunken seating areas were awesome! The food was fantastic not just in the restaurants. ...which we enjoyed not having to reserve😀 The rooms were lovely...especially enjoyed the shower!!! The entertainment was fantastic! I loved the loud music, shows foam pool parties and dancing that was a big part of this resort🖒. If there was any drawback it would be that there really is not much of a beach to speak of. With everything else this resort has to offer, I actually didn't mind....even though I am a beach lover! LOVED IT🤗

Resort was beautiful. Pools and hot tubs great. Food at the a la carte Asian, steak house and tapas was delicious. Did not enjoy the food at the Italian or French restaurants. The music all day by the pools was not good or the French and Italian restaurants at night - was some kinda techno stuff. The entertainment was great, lots of good shows. Room was fabulous, huge shower and great decor.

We just got back from Breathless Resort and it simply does leave you Breathless. The resort is very clean, food is wonderful, the staff is amazing. The only drawback is the beach. It wasnt a nice beach but we still made the best of our trip. If you want to get away and have a blast in the foam patties, watch fantastic live entertainment at night then Breathless is your place to be. ENJOY! We did!

What a fabulous resort! - The food was excellent, the service was second to none and the staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. The Beach is kept tidy by the resort but unfortunately in that area the Beaches are just not that great. Personally I loved the 3 pools the resort had to offer so I didn't miss the beach at all.

Breathless resort at Mayan Riveria Cancun was outstanding. As soon as you exited the bus you were given a fresh Cold towel to cool you down. After you proceed to check-in a nice tropical drink was given to refresh your self. Our bags were left behind and we were asked to proceed to the lunch Buffett. Our room was ready at 3 pm. It was great it gave us time to eat then walk around the lush resort. The Ground, pools, were spectacular. It had great color vibes throughout the resort. The bars had great bar tenders who put a great show. We never seen talented bar tenders who can entertain a big crowd. The Foam pool water was breathless. Never seen anything like this. One great place to party and have fun. The Food was delishes. Each restaurant was very good. Each place was Amazing. Asian, steak house (the strip) italian, French and mediterranean we loved them all. After dinner we would go to a cafe bar to eat great italian gelato with coffee. This bar also serves small portion size desserts . Believe me all you need is one bit and you think you are in heaven. Our room was very nice, our room was 5219 great location. We had partial ocean room. The maids did a fantastic job cleaning daily. The activity team was great keeping everyone involved with water aerobics, volley ball, Zumba and much more. The Beach was very rough during the week of Jan. We didn't enjoy the beach but the pool was Outstanding. Soo many large pools with great swim ups. Overall this is a 10/10 Josie

This was an amazing resort, best in class and the name is so fitting, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, you have outdone yourself with this resort. Staff was unbelievable, a job well done to all that has been involved with this resort. Highly recommended!

Loved it. The service was great. Entertainment in day time and evening was fun. The food and drinks were really good. Would love to go back again. The staff was very friendly and memorable. We're able to make good friends with them . Well never forget them.
