When it is time to reconnect as a couple, my partner and I want beautiful sunsets, vibrant nightlife, and luxury within our fingertips. Breathless Cabo San Lucas lured us for that romantic getaway. The Hyatt All-Inclusive, adults-only resort located on the bustling marina has everything that we could have wanted. Scrumptious food, endless activities, and opportunities to rekindle that romance. For couples who want to be in the heart of the action, with a taste of elegance, this Mexican resort took our breath away.

  • Resort balances private time and group activities
  • Smaller, all-inclusive resort feels cozy

While all-inclusive resorts are popular in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, we prefer a smaller venue versus the expansive, gigantic resorts. The adults-only Breathless Cabo San Lucas has 169 suites. It is just the right size. It allowed us to mingle but also have alone time. Cozy restaurant tables, intimate pool seating, and even the open air lounge were conducive for us to plan our day to fit any and every mood.

Luxurious Amenities Invite Couples to Linger in The Room

  • Quiet mornings on the balcony are perfect for room service breakfast
  • Comfy beds with smart window placement invite relaxation

On a vacation, we appreciate the opportunity to leisurely linger in a well-appointed room. The spacious suite was perfect for lazy mornings and late night unwinding. The views balance the stunning landscape with the bustling marina. With 24-hour room service, several mornings started with a leisurely breakfast on the balcony. A few nights ended with late night munchies after dancing the night away. These well-appointed rooms are the perfect enclave for couples looking to escape.

Two Pools, Two Different Vibes

  • Marina infinity pool is best for quiet moments
  • Rooftop pool has an energetic atmosphere

The pool is always the place to see and be seen on vacations. While my partner loves to mix and mingle, sometimes I prefer a calmer vibe. Breathless Cabo San Lucas offers two very different pools. In some ways, it felt like two vacations in one. The intimate marina infinite pool is quieter. It is the perfect spot to sip a cocktail, read a book, or take a little snooze.

Book these restaurants for dinner

  • Most romantic restaurant: Ocote is a great spot to watch the sunset
  • Best spot to try a little of everything: Bites Gastro Lounge is the restaurant when you can’t decide on a flavor
  • Restaurant for lingering: Fish Nets, just steps from the beach, is lovely for a late night dinner

With 12 restaurants and bars on property, we could choose a new dinner spot every night or return to a favorite time and again. Featuring a wide array of global cuisine, the all-inclusive service allowed us to sample a variety of dishes, enjoy a multi-course meal, or just have a little nosh. Again, Breathless Cabo San Lucas satisfied every whim, craving, or vacation must-have.

Immerse Yourself into Ultimate Relaxation at the Spa

  • Couples massage is a must
  • Relax in the private patio space before or after a treatment

While my partner prefers to be in the heart of the action, the spa is the place that whisks me away into vacation mode. The intimate spa offers an array of traditional treatments. The real gem is the quiet patio area where guests can unwind before or after a treatment. From the jacuzzi to the comfortable chairs, the space offers a moment of zen.

Hikes, Yoga, and More Are Must-Try Activities

  • Resort offers free activities like morning hikes and sound bath yoga
  • Bookable activities include excursions, paddleboarding, and more.

While sitting on a chaise lounge is blissful, morning activities keep the heart racing. During our stay, we participated in a hike, sound bath yoga and a few other fun activities around the marina. The early morning hike is a must because it offers the most impressive views. Just a warning, the terrain is steep. Luckily, there are plenty of refreshments waiting back at the resort.

Local Attractions Are Just Steps Away

  • Local charters offer snorkeling, scenic views, and whale watching.
  • Popular nightlife is a few blocks away.

While Breathless Cabo San Lucas offers every amenity, we could not miss exploring a little.  It is not a trip to the area without seeing El Arco de Cabo San Lucas or hitting Cabo Wabo Cantina. From fishing charters to shopping, there is a little bit of everything in this area.
