Breathless Resort is an adults-only all-inclusive on Punta Cana’s Uvero Alto Beach that has been a very popular choice with young visitors since its inception in 2013.

The resort covers a large area so everyone has plenty of space and its stretch of beach at Uvero Alto is nicely uncrowded.
Among its many facilities are various swimming pools, whirlpools and a lazy river, full spa and gym facilities, numerous bars and restaurants, both buffet and a la carte, a theater, a casino and daily and nightly entertainment.
