Breathless Riviera Cancun: Endless Fun and Festivities

Where the Party Never Ends

Just a hop, skip, and a jump away, Breathless Riviera Cancun is where the party never stops. This vibrant, adults-only resort is perfect for guests who thrive on excitement and socializing. With its chic, modern design and electric atmosphere, Breathless offers a plethora of activities, from beach volleyball, foam parties, and water sports during the day to themed parties and DJ-led dance nights after dark.

The guest experience at Breathless is all about energy and fun. Whether you’re mingling at one of the resort’s swim-up bars, dancing the night away at the rooftop lounge, or participating in lively poolside games, there’s never a dull moment. It’s the perfect place to let your hair down and live it up.

The Perfect Blend

Moments and Memories

One of the most fantastic aspects of these connected resorts is the ability to enjoy the best of both worlds. Guests staying at Secrets can relish the peaceful, romantic ambiance but still have access to the high-energy fun at Breathless whenever the mood strikes. It’s an ideal setup for groups with diverse preferences, ensuring everyone has their perfect vacation experience.

When you work with your travel advisor as you secure rooms for your guest’s stay, you’ll be able to reserve some rooms for your guests on both the Secrets side AND the Breathless side. Although, it’s important to note that guests staying in the Breathless section do not have full access to Secrets’ amenities while guests staying in Secrets can access everything!

Destination Wedding Bliss

Celebrate Your Love in Tropical Paradise

When it comes to destination weddings, Secrets and Breathless Riviera Cancun offer the ultimate combination of venues and atmospheres to suit any celebration style. The wedding team here is certified for South Asian Weddings & LGBTQ+ weddings, so they can truly do it all for you! One of my favorite things about this resort is that they do allow outside vendors for photographers, hair and makeup etc. and their outside vendor fees are super low starting at only $300 compared to other resorts that start at $1000 – Huge Perk!

If your dream wedding location is on the beach, it is important to note that the beach here is not as pristine as other areas in Riviera Maya and is usually affected by sargassum season. However, the resort makes an incredible effort in keeping everything clean, free of seaweed, and swimmable. The good news is their wedding gazebo is perfectly situated to overlook the ocean without being affected by the sargassum. SO, if a true beach wedding is your priority, stick to wedding dates between the end of November to February for the best possible beach conditions. Otherwise, the terrace wedding venues are some seriously “Wow” worthy wedding locations!

While your travel agent takes care of yours and your guests’ travel arrangements the amazing team of wedding coordinators and wedding management team will make sure that every detail of your wedding is stunning and unforgettable so all you have to do is say “I do!”

While Crete is an extraordinary destination in itself, my recent trip was centered around visiting the remarkable Phaea Blue Palace. I’ve recommended Crete to my clients countless times, but until this visit, I hadn’t fully appreciated the size and diversity of the island. Most Greeks proudly say they’re from “Greece,” but ask a Cretan where they’re from, and the answer is always “Crete.” The Cretan people are fiercely proud of their island, its heritage, and its unique character.
