Javier Navarro, director of sales for the newly opened Breathless Cancun Soul, believes its DNA sets the brand apart.
“When we started promoting the Breathless brand, we knew we needed a differentiator from the other all-inclusive brands,” Navarro noted in the lobby of the new build hotel part of AMR Collection, which he described as a major selling feature. “Entertainment, music, pool and beach experience, spa experience, dining experience, fashion, art and culture. We have all those seven pillars that give us our DNA.”
Breathless Cancun Soul Resort & Spa marks the third Mexican location for the brand, and the fifth overall alongside Punta Cana, Montego Bay, Los Cabos and Puerto Morelos.
“We are the soul of Cancun now,” he said. “We offer three different moods or three different energies. Low energy, medium energy and high energy. We are the only hotel that offers really something different to the regular adults only resorts.”
The hotel offers a more relaxed wing for those who want to disconnect with an exclusive rooftop pool and another for those who thrive on action and activity with daily DJ parties.
“In the past, the message that we used to say about the brand was party, party, party, but we are more than that,” he explained. “We’re an upscale, very high-end experience for those clients who love to be in a hotel with great dining experiences, with greats spas, with great chic rooms.”
The high energy was evident during the opening party for the property, featuring model Alessandra Ambrosio and a runway show with local and international designers, fireworks and live DJs.
“We have views over views,” he said. “Amazing views of the skyline… Even the gym has views!”
