My husband and I had an EXCELLENT STAY at Breathless Punta Cana! I taught Zumba - in the sand, on the beach! It was a new and fun experienceI connected to their speaker via bluetooth. I taught 1 class, every morning at 1030. The e-team helped to hype the class, and were very energetic. They loved my classes and my music choices. They like to dance along! Bring a hat, sunglasses and water. I brought shoes that I didn't mind getting sandy, but I modified my moves to consider the sand and the heat on the participants. This resort is well loved, well maintained, clean, comfortable and runs like a well oiled machine. You can tell that they have had years of continuing customer satisfaction. The rooms have everything you would expect, with plenty of hot water, crisp, clean linens, cool air conditioning, great housekeepers, and safes in every room. The grounds are impeccable and maintained. They are mature and dialed in. You can find little areas of more quiet and seclusion, or be in the middle of a dj'd pool party! I also really loved that you could walk everywhere under covered pathways, if a break from the sun is needed, or if it were to rain. The beach offers beautiful views, plenty of seating and palapas, cocktail service and a Barefoot Grill. They have a flag indicating the ocean's swimming conditions, and lifeguards keeping you safe. The availability of food and drink options- both the different cuisine types and the times available- prove they understand their clientele. The buffet is just outstanding, and we found ourselves going there as often as possible. They have everything you could want for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The specialty restaurants were very good, with the French spot -Coquette- standing out. Coffee in the Dominican Republic is delicious, as you may expect. They are very proud of it! The bars are well placed, and you never have to go far to get a drink, though the cocktail servers do a good job of getting them for you. You can call top shelf liquor, and if you are undecided, they are ready with a list of options to try! The Wink bar has true craft cocktails, and the pool bartenders are a blast! What makes Breathless Punta Cana come alive is the Entertainment. At the beach and the activities pool, there are fitness activities, fun games throughout the day, Spanish lessons, even mechanical bull riding! There are afternoon themed pool parties at the DJ pool - one was a Birthday Party (for everyone!!)- a Champagne Splash and these are accompanied by powerful, wonderful dancers, themed drinks and music! The evenings really shine: nightly concerts around suppertime, Circus Show, Dominican Culture and Dance, Fire Shows, and an amazing Neon Party at the DJ pool, and the White Party on the beach! Both are fantastic in the truest sense of the word! The time of your life! You'll make friends here. Your fellow travelers are be laid back, energetic, connective and ready for fun! The vibe is friendly, open and casual/sexy by day, dressing on theme for the parties and elegant resort wear for dinner and nightlife. The Entertainment team, led by Waldy, is endlessly energetic, and know how to engage with the guests to help them to fully enjoy the energy and vitality Breathless Punta Cana has to offer. You'll sleep well, eat well, drink well, have as much fun as you want, and feel the warm welcome of Dominican hospitality.

This is the most beautiful Secrets I have ever seen. It is brand new, spotless, impeccably maintained. The food was excellent in every single restaurant. The rooms are furnished with luxurious amenities. The staff was extremely polite, professional and helpful. Andres (Cappuccino) was very, very kind, and the E-team were fun and engaging. There were fun activities and shows every day and night. I HIGHLY recommend this resort of upscale luxury and relaxation. It is a quiet, FANCY resort. You have access to Breathless Punta Cana next door, which is more energetic and party style, and Dreams Onyx next to that, which is a family resort. I taught Zumba. The class time varied. Sometimes I taught 2 classes per day. 11, 1130, 4, 430, 5. You may need to bring a USB DAC (or USBC to headphone adapter) to connect to their speaker. You will be teaching in the sun, so bring a hat, sunglasses, water and a wet towel. The outdoor shower is right where you teach, I soaked my head before and after class!

The E-Team at this resort was just absolutely amazing. The nicest, hardest working, most dedicated people. Such a pleasure to work with! Every encounter with the hotel staff in every area was just wonderful. I was just blown away by these people. I enjoyed every aspect of my teaching vacation and can’t wait to do it again. I also want to say this was one of my best vacations. This beautiful resort has everything you could want! I I know there are many amazing resorts to choose from but I want to go back to Breathless Punta Cana! I also appreciate how organized you are at Fit Bodies. You are a great company!

We love this resort. It feels like home for us now. The staff is warm and welcoming no matter the role: front desk, restaurant/bars, e-team, housekeeping, grounds- all are lovely people. Teaching is wonderful and staff is very supportive of fitness classes.

I taught group fitness on the beach. My aux cord didn't work so we copied my playlist everyday. Take backup speaker or better aux cord than I had! Love the resort and E-Team was so supportive. all the staff is great. I love my students, and the pool! Top notch!

E-Team provided a speaker on the beach my phone hooked into. So music for Zumba was no problem. The entertainment team was not as hands on as my previous teaching vacation experience. They had several activity areas to manage so they were often no present for the actual class. I had a difficult time locating the entertainment manager to confirm my schedule, but the the team members were very helpful and checked in with me each morning prior to class starting. They helped promote my classes to guests, too. Overall, I had no issues. Love the pool. Great resort. Be sure to complete the E-ticket for immigration before arriving at the airport. It can delay you boarding if it not completed prior to departure.

I've done this a few times so I can't really say I have issues. I was truly hoping the app would be functional for booking vacations as well! Maybe??? Anyway love all of you. Denise is my favorite concierge. She is always so helpful to me and replies promptly. I love that I can reach out to anyone and always get information. I feel like I need to sign up for the next level though because I can't seem to get any of the higher resorts. I guess that's something I will have to think about. This E-team was fabulous. They truly treated me as a special guest. I loved all of them and the Entertainment Manager, Waldy was exceptionally polite, courteous and respectful. Already left a review on trip advisor and on teach on the beach on facebook!! Rachel Evans reached out and said because she saw my post she was booking Breathless Punta Cana! I said "DO IT" ! Everything went very well. We received a free upgrade without asking. Very thankful.

TEACHING YOGA ON THE BEACH IS WONDERFUL! Great Eteam headed by Waldy Reyes. He has assistant who's always present at start of yoga. He kept me up to date regarding finished time & what activities to follow (e.g zumba on same beach after yoga). Fantastic teaching yoga on resort, enjoying companion time great Eteam. Of course entertainment, food and drinks. Very smooth process from flying, arriving getting scheduled transfer and arriving at resort.

I had a great time. One half hour class on the beach every morning at 9:30. I was responsible for getting towels, but the eteam cleaned them up. It's a great location-no need for music. I had at least 8 people everyday, sometimes 22. It's a fun resort for all ages and couples or singles. I love that you have full access to Dreams Onyx. It was a great experience. It was my second time teaching at this resort so I didn't need much help. From day one I had repeat participants and many said they planned on continuing yoga after they went home. It was a very positive experience.

Brought my own Bluetooth used two days when dj was not there otherwise a dj played music for me. Yoga is on the beach. Use towels instead of mats. Staff is amazing.

Class was on the beach volleyball court, where beach towels work better as yoga mats than yoga mats! There was a dj on the beach playing soft music. Really wonderful yoga "studio". Nice breeze! This is accurately portrayed as a party resort.

Teaching yoga on the beach is amazing. So beautiful. Commonsense updates to class postures to accommodate sandy beach and all levels participants. Balancing poses are fun! Sound is optional - many natural sounds are already at play. The E-team here is great at recruiting people and advertising class. They are alway on time and bring the towels out for you. They bring a ton of energy! It was really nice to see the resort so busy. They go above and beyond for their parties and events here.

I taught Yoga here April 2022. Class was 9:30 am on the beach using towels as mats. Good class sizes ranging from 8-20 participants. Resort feels dated and in need of some TLC. I was not prepared for the level of "party" this resort offers. Weather was perfect and beach is stunning. I love the Dominican Republic and wouldn't hesitate to book the Dreams Onyx next door-it was stunning!

I taught yoga here in March 2020. Class was next to the beach but not on the beach because of windy mornings. All I need are towels when teaching at resorts and there are plenty of them. They are always clean and versatile for yoga class. I love the plentiful time to relax and rejuvenate, and spend quality time with my companion. Despite the quick changes all around during this unprescendented week in history, I had 10-15 every day for class. Most new to yoga and being flexible with my lesson plan is always in mind. We decided to upgrade our room which was a worthwhile splurge to have extra space and the price was right for us to do so at check in. Can't wait to travel again!!!

I taught yoga here in March 2020, on the beach and a rainy day class was inside the Club. Towels to support class in even creative ways are plentiful; from using as mats to bolsters of all sorts. Class was promoted on the IPad and I always walk around and lightly introduce myself to guests and invite them to class. E-Team helps with this, too. I've done MANY of these teaching vacation trips and something varying from position to position is how much or little the E-Team helps to set up class. At this resort, a lot of Entertainment responsibilities are happening when my yoga class was starting and this meant I was more on my own to set up music, and gather towels. My husband enjoys helping with this, and it's no big deal just to be aware. Overall I love this resort and LOVE the Breathless brand.
