Our first trip to this resort, we’ve stayed at many other resorts in Jamaica. Enjoyed our trip here overall and loved staying at butler level which gave us access to 3 resorts in 1. Staff were very friendly and accommodating, they seemed to genuinely enjoy working there and took pride in providing good service and making us feel welcomed. 2. Activities were fun and engaging. 3. Great entertainment, nightly live bands or shows were very good. 4. Pools and beach were clean and comfortable, no shortage of loungers or cabanas. 5. Friendly and accommodating staff. We had to do some work and they found us nice spots outside with required electrical access and comfort level.
Notable staff included:
O’Keine and Roberto-Butlers
Alistair- pool and rooftop bars
Jadine - el Patio
Junior-blue mountain
Marlon- Entry/Lobby
Nikoda- portifino
Shanique - Bordeaux
Tevin- multiple locations
Transport staff was very helpful as well.
Resort buildings and rooms could use some maintenance/care, but overall comfortable with beautiful grounds and walkability. Free bikes make getting around the resort fun.
Bonus. Resort is close to the airport.

Disappointing Stay with Missed Expectations and Poor Service

Our recent stay at Breathless was disappointing and fell far short of expectations.
Before our arrival, I filled out a detailed questionnaire intended to tailor our experience, clearly mentioning that we were visiting for our honeymoon. To our shock, nothing was done to acknowledge this—not even a simple door banner or welcome message. It felt as though the questionnaire was completely ignored, which was very disheartening.
The staff, with the exception of the butlers Craig and Reynard, appeared disinterested and unmotivated, often making us feel unwelcome. The restaurant wait staff at the restaurant Altitude, in particular, were unapproachable and seemed tired and frustrated, which significantly diminished the dining experience. Maintenance issues were also left unresolved, such as an air conditioning problem that caused discomfort throughout our stay, even after it was reported.
The resort’s infrastructure is in need of attention, as it already looks dated and worn for a property that is only six years old. It’s clear that better upkeep and maintenance are necessary to match the standards expected of a resort in this category.
On a positive note, the entertainment staff were fantastic—cheerful, engaging, and a highlight of our stay. Their energy and friendliness stood out amidst the other disappointments.
Overall, this experience fell far short of what we anticipated, especially given the premium price. Improving staff morale, addressing maintenance concerns, and providing a more personalized guest experience are essential for Breathless to meet the expectations it sets for its guests.

Breathless completely exceeded our expectations. We booked for a week for our honeymoon and we were pleasantly surprised with the presidential suite and the hospitality! Beautifully kept resort, with very accommodating staff. Come with your manners and respect and they will give it back tenfold. Food options were excellent (so many options with access to Secrets as well). Rooms were very soundproof, didn’t hear much neighbouring noise. Small resort footprint with beautiful views. Felt safe and comfortable. The skywalk to Secrets from the 1st floor was a quick jaunt to the beach access. Loved every minute; looking forward to returning again. Special thank you to Travis and Olivia for taking care of us from beginning to end. Patricia in housekeeping for the kind words. And our favourite waiter Theo, who always made sure our dining experience was perfect! You all always had a smile to share and made us feel at home. Keep it up and stay great xo Until next time

We were on the 5th floor. Food and staff were very friendly & accommodating. Our butler David was fantastic. From reserving Cabanas/recliners by the pool, to serving us drinks/food around the pool, reservations at several Secrets resort restaurants & in room food service. Food was excellent/drinks were top shelf. The roof top & ground level pools were well maintained. Entertainment was great too. Our point of contact Jodiana was excellent and very knowledgeable about our U.V.C. Membership.

Freezing Pool temperatures- fix the pool heaters
Jan 25, 2025aslinnyEast Meadow, New York
Freezing Pools!
Currently staying here and the jacuzzi hot tubs and pools are empty because they are freezing!
Have not been able to enjoy any of the pools in the Wild Orchid, St.James or Breathless every pool is colder than the next.
Can someone fix this? Resort is beautiful- but what’s the point if we can’t go swimming?
