The hotel

Breathless Montego Bay is a stylish, luxury resort that's all all-suite, all-inclusive, and all for adults. Being exclusively for grownups, they’ve been able to have endless fun with the ultramodern design and features, from the sultry and seductive décor in your suite — which also comes with its own whirlpool, in-room tablet, and mountain and bay views — to the calendar of dance, beach, pool, and even masquerade parties. Thankfully, they’ve got all-inclusive room service for when you finally crawl back to your sumptuous suite!

The size of our room was like a small apartment and had a balcony view of the ocean. Fabulous view day and night! Nothing but compliments on the team members at hotel. They truly are the heart that makes the stay at this hotel "grand." ALL we dealt with throughout our stay went above and beyond for us. The amount of food and quality was nothing I have ever experienced before. This was truly a unique experience as first time to Jamaica. I want to add that I was there on 12 Nov 2024 when most of the team members walked out and began protesting about gettine more pay and ultimately working to express they wanted their bonuses as promised. I will say that without the locals this hotel would fail. I would say from what my family and I experienced that these employees should get paid more as they are for real the backbone of this vacation resort. Read less

Sultry, sexy, and beautiful. Breathless is the resort to be if you need alone time with yourself or s/o. The rooms were intimate and sexy not like a hourly motel room. This has class. The resort, hands down just beautiful clean and refreshing.

We truly enjoyed our stay at Breathless. From the moment we entered the lobby, everyone was so kind. Our room was spacious, with mood lighting, a view of the pool and bay, with a whirlpool on the balcony. A buffet breakfast with made to order omelets was tasty. Lunch at Fish Nets, by the pool, or Bare Buns by the ocean. Altitude Rooftop and restaurant with exceptional views, with a small pool for exhale guests, bar, serving lunch and dinner. Guests also have full access to Secrets. The pool and pool bar were perfect. At 3:00 the pool party starts, with dancing, foam party and champagne. The Entertainment team was exceptional. There was a 10:30 Stretch class, Water Aerobics, Water Volleyball, and other numerous activities every day. The gym has quite a few machines, and not crowded, with the Spa for relaxation. On Halloween guests carved pumpkins. Every night in the lobby was a party. Secrets had a Halloween Costume party. We were invited to a Pure Chocolate pairing with Rum, very interesting. Your options to chill or party are endless. A perfect vacation. Breathless has a marvelous staff! Read less
