    We loved this resort so much!

    The best time at the best resort! We had so much fun and this place is awesome. I travelled with my bf and we enjoyed every aspect of the amenities here. My 4th visit here and we can’t wait to come back. The resort is clean and modern with the best staff in Mexico! It has everything you want with delicious food and drinks and not too big and easy to navigate. The restaurants are awesome. You have to try the pizza by the ocean with Cesar and Fernando. They took care of us all week! Delicious pizza and awesome drinks. They made our stay so pleasant. It was great to see Cesar there again for the 4th time. So friendly and so accommodating. Gracias. We loved the food and people and our room was awesome. Can’t wait to come back.

    Outstanding Resort!

    My husband and I (along with my sister and brother in law) stayed at the Breathless Riviera Cancun resort April 18-24, 2005. It was our first vacation to Mexico and we have to say, Breathless Riviera Cancun was amazing in all ways! Check- in and check-out was a breeze, the service everywhere was top-notch, the entertainment crew were outstanding, nightly entertainment and activities were fun and thoroughly entertaining, and the food was excellent! Our room was clean and spacious and we loved the double shower! I liked that there were two pools, offering guests an option to hang out at either the accelerate “party pool” or the energy pool. We were always at the energy pool and found the vibe to be fun, with an excellent variety of pool side entertainment, contests, and classes (spin class with Michelle was awesome!!). The music was fantastic and offered a great variety. We never had to fight for a good spot or lounge chair by the pool, had easy access to the water beds and ocean front huts. There are some people we would like to give a special shout out to: Pascal at Spoons buffet who always greeted us with an enthusiastic energy and smile. The entertainment crew were “WOW”, with a special mention to sexy Ivan, Manny, Angel (aka chocolate boy), Andres, and Jesus. These guys were awesome to interact with either at the pool playing games and in the evening during the night entertainment (Wink and Showstopper) They made us feel pretty special during our stay and definitely added a lot of fun energy to our amazing experience! Our poolside server, Gibran gave us exceptional service during our entire stay. He kept us well hydrated and always delivered when we asked him to surprise us with a drink he’d think we would like. He even brought us pizzas! All the waiters at the restaurants were awesome, but special shout-out to Mauricio who served us at Coquette (French restaurant). Thank you Serafina, our lovely housekeeper for keeping our room clean! I didn’t think I would be swimming in the ocean due to the seaweed I was reading about, but it was fine. Once you got a little further into the water, it was great! We saw a little ray, a couple crabs and two varieties of fish. Thank you to the men who were out everyday raking up the seaweed, trying to clean it as best they can. These guys deserve a shout out. We appreciate you! I would definitely come back to this resort. Way to go Breathless team!

    Oustanding Resort and People, a must stay vacation experience

    We stayed at Breathless Riviera Cancun Resort & Spa for a week in April. It is a beautiful resort. The people, restaurants, and amenities are outstanding. The only disappointing thing was the beach which is covered in seaweed and the ocean is not accessible. This, however, is not the fault of the resort. It is common all along the coast. There are a few things I want to address. First every one of the restaurants are outstanding, the food is superb. The servers working in the restaurants are friendly, pleasant, courteous and work very hard at making your experience as wonderful as possible. I did not write down everyone’s name, unfortunately, but they were all terrific. The buffet restaurant The Spoon, which is where we went for breakfast and lunch. The food was superb. The people, Pascual, Wilberth, Rafael and Francisco, along with everyone else were wonderful. They always made sure we had everything we needed, were very friendly and courteous, and made our day enjoyable. We went to the bar, BarkWink, which is right next to The Spoon, every day for drinks. The people were wonderful, Guillermo, Yesi, Carlos, Orvelin, Christian, Sonia, Yessica, Alfredo, Isabel and everyone else always made sure our drinks were full, had wonderful personalities, very friendly, and made our stay extra special. Antonio Luna Arucen was also a bartender at BarWink. He made the best margaritas we have ever had. We went there just to see him every day, he is the best bartender, friendly, takes pride in his job, always smiling, happy and very thorough in taking care, and multi-tasking. He took care of all the drinks for BarWink and Spoon. Our favorite bartender. The pools were both nice. However, the pool by our room, was very loud, the music was not to our liking, so we stayed at the other pool all day. The service there was outstanding and all the servers were outstanding. I can’t say enough good things about the service and restaurants. I hope we will return there very soon. Thank you everyone for making our vacation an excellent one full of wonderful memories.

    Good experience all in all

    My wife and I went with a group of five other couples (friends). I wasn't sure what to expect from this resort as it was labelled from a lot of reviews as a "party resort". I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the party wasn't quite as crazy as I was expecting in the nighttime when it was time to go to sleep. Don't get me wrong, great atmosphere during the day but it didn't go all night, at least not around our building. We had the Jr excelerate room with the swim out. The temperature in the swim out was good for the time of the year. We had one of our friends in the swim out right beside us and another couple two down so we were able to enjoy it with them. Thanks to the check in staff for doing their best to accommodate getting us as close as possible. The excelerate pool during the day is where we spent most of our time. Good music and entertainment. It was loud but we expected that. The servers were excellent at constantly checking to see if our cups needed refills. The entertainment in the evening was also pretty good. We went from Saturday to Saturday and I think the only night there wasn't something going on was our last Friday night but that was fine. We went to the sports bar and had a good time there as a group. We didn't spend much time in the beach so I really can't comment much about that. For the most part, it looked clean but I did notice one day it needed some attention from the seaweed that would wash up. All in all, it was an excellent vacation. I'm not sure it was a relaxing one but that was our choice. I'd definitely return to this resort again.
