    Very enjoyable resort.

    Beautiful resort! Loved the shows. Food was very good. If you are a man, be sure to bring long pants for the french restaurant. Plenty of fun activities. Great staff!

    Late September is a great time to go!

    Breathless Riviera Cancun Resort & Spa is a well maintained adults only resort. There are loads of activities and enough food options to appease most. I was concerned about coming during hurricane season seeing a lot of rain in the forecast prior to our visit. It was sunny and hot, to the extent that I had to find shade breaks. Late September is a great time to visit, and the resort was at capacity during the weekend, and more chill Monday through Wednesday.

    Overall we enjoyed our stay.

    We enjoyed our stay at Breathless Riviera Cancun. The room was nice and the food was much better than expected. The restaurants and staff did a great job preparing and serving good food. Christian was super friendly at The Strip. The pools need options for a party atmosphere and a relaxing atmosphere, it seemed like everything was geared more toward partying. There seemed to always be that bump, bump, bump, in the background and we got tired of hearing it all day long. Also it was loud at night inside the room. Naya at the check in desk was nice enough to move us away from the center of the action and it definitely helped. The magic show was superb! I wish there had been that sort of entertainment every night. There was some MTV The Real World drama fight down at the pool that should have been handled sooner on our last day. But other than these small things our stay was very nice.

    Didn't expect this!

    My wife and I went to this resort for our 10 year anniversary. We had never done a Breathless before so I did not know what to expect. It was AMAZING. All the staff members were great and treated us like kings and queens. Pool concierge Victor was one of the best staff members I have ever had out of the dozen times I have been to all inclusive. He went very above and beyond. Food was great, only down part about that is the buffet is usually not open for dinner. Getting into restaurants was fast so that helped. Room was wonderful. The party Pool lived up to the name on the weekend. That always a bit wild but really fun. I usually don't care to want to go back to a resort, but this one will be a must in the future.
