Jan 14, 2025A very noisy "party" resort - great if that is what you are seeking.
A modern, attractive, clean and well-maintained resort, about 45 minutes away from Punta Cana airport. Staff are polite and friendly. Superb accessibility everywhere for guests with reduced mobility (walkers, wheelchairs, canes). Food quality varies from excellent to mediocre, depending on which of the many restaurants you choose to eat at. Avoid the ‘Spoons’ buffet. Everywhere else, the steaks are superb. This is without question a “party all the time” resort that caters to a hard-drinking, hard-partying crowd typically made up of couples between 25 & 50 years old, which means it is not the place to go if you want peace, quiet, and tranquility. Instead, you will hear techno-disco music with exaggerated bass pumping out all day long in the central common area. This, combined with the all-concrete, all hard surface construction of the rooms and buildings, means that this is a very noisy hotel 24 hours a day. Staff have not been trained to speak quietly or turn walkie-talkie volume down when in hotel hallways and the result is intrusive and annoying noise in the rooms all the time, night and day. There is a lot of cost-cutting going on at this resort under the guise of “using modern technology”. There are no printed documents of any kind in the rooms, no room service menus, no resort maps, and no welcome documentation. At all the restaurants guests are encouraged to use a cell phone to scan a bar code to read the menu on their phone, rather than being offered a conventional printed menu. The resort uses a website rather than an ‘app’ for all interaction with guests, which means that if you don’t bring a cellphone with you and keep it with you all the time, you will suffer. Wi-Fi speeds are slow, capped at a maximum 3.6 Mb/s, but it is rare to actually achieve that speed. The Xhale premium section of the hotel doesn’t appear to offer guests much beyond twice daily housekeeping service and a Jacuzzi tub on the room balcony. There are no hors d'oeuvres or light snacks in the Xhale lounges, just a tired selection of the same small pastries every day. If you go, ask for a room with a ‘garden’ view, not a ‘pool’ view. Also ask for a room with double doors between the sleeping area and the hallway. These two choices will reduce unwanted noise during the day and nighttime, respectively.

Jan 14, 2025Absolutely Perfect!
We stayed for 7 nights in January 2025 and our trip was perfect. The property is very well maintained and we loved how mature the palm trees are. It is very apparent that the upkeeping of the resort is a high priority. For us the food was give or take. We did not really enjoy the breakfast but had great experiences for our dinners. For lunch we mostly ate at the Barefoot Grill as we loved the hamburgers, french fries, and ice cream cones. The beach was amazing, we were Xhale Club and we enjoyed that part of the beach, we even did some snorkling inbetween Breathless and Onyx and saw a ton of fish. We swam in most of the pools and enjoyed the main pool and party pool the most. Occasionally the service at the bars was a little slow but nothing that impacted our stay. We had an amazing waiter our whole time there, Angel who made our stay so fun. He did an amazing job keeping up with our group of 22 people. He always recognized us and made sure we had what we needed even when the pool was packed, especially during the Neon Party on Friday night. We loved the night life here. Every night had a different show that we loved and then we would often go upstairs for the DJ afterwards. If you are looking to have a fun time, especially at night then this is the place to go. However, even when we went back to our room before the entertainment was over, we could not hear the music with our garden view room. This resort had the best nightlife that we have experienced. Since we were Xhale club, we also had a butler, Yimi. Yimi was amazing. He was quick to respond to our text messages and was somehow able to get reservations for our very large group every night that we wanted them, which we know was not an easy thing. He made our stay that much better. Overall, we would go to this resort again (if we liked going back to places more than once). It was such an amazing time with an amazing group of people!

10 wonderful days at breathless
10 days in Breathless Punta Cana. Let me start off by saying the hotel is stunning and the grounds & pool are well kept and immaculate, admittedly the hotel is for a younger crowd, what I mean by younger crowd is those who enjoy pool parties at night, during the day and generally enjoy being in a buzzing atmosphere. We stayed at the resort for 10 days on an AI package and we saw a peak of customers from the USA usually arriving on Thursday/Friday and departing the following Monday - as such the resort restaurant particularly at breakfast can feel busier than usual. Things we liked at Breathless 1. Stunning property and the ability to also eat at the sister property Dreams Onyx 2. A variety of A La Carte restaurants available on site and a short buggy drive to Dreams Onyx - standout restaurants were Habachi and a lovely French restaurant (I have forgotten the name). 3. 24/7 room service and cafe - meaning you can get a midnight snack like couscous and fried chicken, a sandwich, hot drink, iced coffee almost whenever you want. 4. Incredible staff - shout out to Miguel who was our concierge, he was polite, charming and so very helpful, he kept us up to date with all the events occuring on each day and went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable stay - THANK YOU MIGUEL. 5. Turn down service was great too special thanks to Suireny she was always a delight to see at turn down service and left such a lasting impression on our group. 6. Special thanks to Janna who covered for Miguel during his leave, the entire cleaning team, ground and security staff. 7. VERY CLEAN and pristine beach area, we would go for both a sunrise and sunset beach walk and the beach area at breathless is so immaculate, they take amazing care of the beach and I have seen the tractor a few times cleaning the beach before the sun comes up, if you walk maybe about 0.5 mile up the beach you do end up on the beach of other resorts and it is not pleasant at all, bottles and lots of rubbish in the beach area. The beach are at breathless was simply breathtaking. Things we didn't like 1. Variety at breakfast is lacking and we ate the same thing almost all 10 days, there also was never any avocados - we would go to breakfast around 8am after using the gym, after having avocados on day 1 we never had them again unless it was guacamole. 2. The evening entertainment besides the neon pool party is quite poor given the standard of the hotel, however this didn't bother us too much, we used the opportunity to play card games and mingle with the hotel guest. 3. Check in was unbelievably slow, we waited 40minutes to get to the desk (1 person working) after a 9hr flight from the UK the only thing you could care for is a speedy and quick check-in and a warm shower, in total from arriving at the property to getting to our room took us over an hr. Would I recommend or return? Absolutely!

Best Birthday Ever!
I had the best time at this resort. All the staff (especially Bill from upstairs lobby area) was awesome! I ended up getting engaged and the experience was beyond exciting. I did have an issue with the kitchen staff at the Spoon restaurant with a possible theft on the floor. Quickly out of the blue retrieved my item after my fiance went back to the restaurant to find it. Often had to hurry up to get a beach towel because they were always low stocked. Other than that the experience was better than those two issues.

Jan 14, 2025Mommy's Birthday Trip
I just came back from this great resort a week ago and I've been thinking about it ever since. Everyone was such a pleasure and so helpful, but the star of the show was Ramon Bautista. He made my mother's birthday extra special because of his attention to detail and promptness. I travel a lot and he is by far one of the best concierges I've ever come in contact with. I would definitely return.
