    Better than anticipated

    Very clean and very well manicured, I did not know what to expect before I arrived, but super glad we went. Very nice resort and food was very good. Bars were very attentive and quick to get your drinks. Everything is very close to your room and easily accessible. Waiters in the buffet especially were friendly and took care of any of our needs

    April Stay

    The resort was beautiful and we had a great time with people of all ages from everywhere. We mostly ate at the barefoot grill by the pool. Yummy lunch/snacks. The beach was not the greatest but we weren’t there for that. If you are a smoker, there are plenty of places to smoke without bothering those that don’t. The spa was great. I had the hydrotherapy and a facial. Hydrotherapy is guided and was very nice. Overall great place, not too big or small and everything was convenient with great people and service!

    Not a quiet location

    The resort was much louder than expected. We had a swim out room on the "quiet" side and were disappointed that starting at 10am till 5 we could hear the music in our room. Then the evening activities and music began again at 6-9. The only quiet place to go was the reception area. That is where we would have drinks in the evening to escape the relentless Tecno bass. Dinner is also a waiting game because the attached resort only uses this resorts restaurants. The first night we went to dinner and had a 2 hr. Wait at all of the restaurants and the buffet at night is outside next to the loud music. The bright spot was Alejandro in the surf and turf restaurant overlooking the pool. He was an amazing server and kept us entertained all evening. I can't say enough about Lidia our bartender in the private bar area. She made the best drinks and was so kind and engaging. We would stop in each night and have drinks and chat with her. Many other guests would come in and be obnoxious or rude and she was very gracefully about it. She is a hard worker and we were happy to get to know her.

    Bachelorette trip

    The attention to detail that this resort has is unbelievable. I was there for a bachelorette and it was such a memorable experience. The decor is changed every single day, the service was great, the whole resort was very clean and the staff was so fun to be around. A special shoutout to Fabio who's energy and enthusiasm throughout the stay made it even more unforgettable. The only downside is that the beach is so shallow that you can't swim in, but everything else made up for it.

    Fun resort with lots going on!

    My husband and I had an incredible babymoon at Breathless Riviera Cancun! We loved all of the activities: beach volleyball every day, great music, and always something going on! All of the food was delicious, too! Barefoot grill has awesome made-to-order sandwiches and pizzas. There was also lots of pop up food spots throughout the week which was fun to have! The nightly entertainment was excellent, too! We loved the quiet Xhale lounge and Lidia there is the best! It was really nice having chairs by the Energy pool just for Xhale! We can't wait to return!
