Depends on what you are looking for....but not a luxury resort
Not a 5 star - but the rooms were comfortable and clean, the food was good, the staff was really helpful. The transport to airport was just ok (50 minute ride but transport from airport to hotel took 2.5 hours due to some missing guests that never showed). Check in and check-out went very smoothly - all the staff (food services, maid service, front desk) went out of their way to be helpful and pleasant. Curiously they don't show you to your room - you kind of have to figure out by a general direction pointed to you from the 2nd floor lobby. The beach is beautiful, but we were not able to go into the surf due to severe undertow for 3 of the 7 days we were there. The pools are really busy and quite noisy - and many of the crowd was quite intoxicated from early in the day onwards. Music at both pools all day. The structure of the hotel makes it that there is a lot of echo in the hallways - at 3 am not the best experience you want to wake up to.

Great service!
Angel at the party bar went above and beyond for us everyday! Edwin from silk city also was amazing!! I would go back just for the service!! These guys made our trip memorable! The food was decent and the hotel was clean. Spa was also clean and nice.

Breathless 2024
We had a great time staying at Breathless for 2 weeks at the end of October 2024. All the staff were friendly and helpful and we definitely appreciated the bar staff both around the pools and in the main area - Ambiorix and Angelo were our go to 😉

40th Birthday Celebration
The restaurants were great! Strip grill probably my least favorite. The alcohol wasn't a fan favorite. Champagne was flat unless you were at the French restaurant or front lobby. The resort was beautiful, staff nice, and again Safrito, Coquette, Culineria, and Spoons cuisine some of the most tasteful resort food.

An amazing 20th Anniversary celebration
We stayed 6 nights in a Xhale Club Tropical View King Junior Suite. The room was huge. I had requested a more quiet area in the resort and they accommodated that perfectly. I also requested a hypoallergenic room (they wouldn’t use feather pillows and comforters), something I had never seen offered during the booking process and thought it was genius as this has been an issue at previous resorts. Our room faced the external edge of the property and had a great view of the Xhale private pools, the mountain and a slight view of the ocean. Loved the robes and slippers. The daily replenished mini bar was great with snacks and drinks, even a bottle of rum. The maids and turn down service did a phenomenal job at keeping our room clean and comfortable. Willy, our Xhale concierge, was amazing! When we arrived at our room there was a “Happy Anniversary” banner on our door and a fruit basket waiting in our room from Willy,. He also had a bottle of champagne sent to us which was wonderful! Willy did an amazing job of making sure our trip was everything and more! He made reservations for our anniversary dinner. He let us know about an Xhale Club exclusive popup dinner on another night with a fixed menu and scheduled our reservation. It was one of the best meals I have ever had, an intimate setting complete with a live violinist. He found us an iron, steamers are in the room but they don’t work the same. He informed us of and booked our add-on Friday Night Lobster party reservations, another absolutely phenomenal meal worth every penny. He even walked us to that dinner - he had had them set up a table for us away from everyone else so we could have a more intimate meal. He had our room decorated with rose petals from our anniversary night on until the end of our trip. The last night he used the 4000 fake petals and heart balloons I had brought to have our room decorated. It was a great surprise for our last night. He even offered to blow up our pool floats. He took us to check out and got us all set to go. Our trip honestly wouldn’t have been as magical without Willy’s help. He made it magnifico Andrea the server at the Xhale Private Beach area was phenomenal and took such good care of us even though we were ordering Passion Fruit Mojitos (to die for good) - always with a stunningly beautiful smile and cheer. Sadae at Twist & Squeeze Bar was magical and took great care of us during the late afternoon until close. We loved our Passion Fruit Mojitos there too. She always had a smile and took great care of our needs. The maids who cleaned our room, turn down service and the young gentlemen who stocked our mini bar did a phenomenal job making sure we were taken care of and our needs were met. Even decorating our room several times and scrubbing our hot tub. The bartenders in the Xhale Lounges were great! Especially the gentlemen in the Xhale check in lounge in our building. All the Xhale staff went above and beyond and always greeted us with a huge smile and by the end knew our Herradura Tequila and Coconut Liquor in glasses on the rocks. We ate at Sofrito 11/4 and the young waiter took excellent care of us and the food was phenomenal -wish it was open more nights. It has me addicted to Dominican Stew and Fried Chicken. Xhale Club lunch at the Strip was amazing!! Kiss to the chef as both the Ceviche Trio and T-bones were perfection. It also has a beautiful view of the ocean and great service. Breakfast was good at the Strip but the options at the Spoon were hard to ignore. The lady that grilled the mussels and calamari at the Spoon for lunch was amazing. She worked her magic, I only wish I had found her earlier in our trip. The Spoon food was great and offered a huge buffet selection for both breakfast and lunch with tons of delicious made to order options. The hostesses were so kind at each restaurant and remembered our names later when they saw us - love that they check about dietary restrictions at each meal. The chefs, the waitstaff and food for the Xhale Club Private Dinner on 11/7 and the Friday Lobster Party on 11/8 were some of the best I have ever had, and we are foodies. The food was absolutely amazing, as was the transformation that had happened to the beach for the Lobster Party, it was beautiful. Ester and the entertainment staff did an amazing job! Ester taught me bachata and never once made me feel silly for not getting the steps. She was patient and by the end had me dancing like I always knew how to bachata. The entertainment staff did a great job getting everyone at the pool near Twist & Squeeze energized and smiling every day. The shows at night were great and we absolutely loved the neon party! The ladies at the Nook made a wonderful Ristretto and Americano!! My husband loved their hot cocoas with rum. The little sandwiches and sweet treats were great grabs for early morning beach walks and for post night show snacking. We loved the added benefits of the Xhale Club. The upgraded services, tequila/liquor, and food options really took our trip up to the next level. The maids, turn down service and upgraded mini bar were amazing. I loved the beach bag and use of the robe and slippers (wish I could've kept my slippers as I did love them). Willy, our concierge really made our stay special - helping to make our 20th anniversary perfect. As did the private beach club area and the wonderful service we got from Andrea there (we spent everyday there). The Xhale exclusive restaurants provided truly amazing fine dining options. The Strip for lunch and the pop up Xhale dinner at Culnaria were to die for food, so yummy. The Xhale buildings were in the perfect spots on the property - better views and a quieter area. Loved that there were a variety of Xhale lounges to grab drinks and snacks at. The available sunscreen also provided a great benefit as did the earlier towel service (though the main pool towel girl was a dear soul and I loved seeing her beaming smile everyday). This stay actually got us hooked on Club level for future stays - we saw and fully took advantage of the added benefits. Everyone, the food, and drinks made our stay magnifico! We felt spoiled for our entire trip. Thank you so much for such a wonderful 20th anniversary stay!
