“Life was meant for good friends & great adventures”
My husband & I recently went on a much needed, adults-only vacation with two other couples to Breathless Punta Cana Resort & Spa. Getting back to our daily routine took a minute which is why this post has taken me 2 weeks to finally complete… 🙂
We love traveling to Punta Cana! It’s fairly inexpensive, an easy flight from Pittsburgh and always a good time. This was our 4th time traveling there together, but our first time at Breathless. Overall, we had a great experience! Between the sunny days, the attentive poolside service, the swim-up bar, 11 restaurant options and the late night casino, how could we not have a good time?!
The resort had 11 restaurants to chose from as well as a handful from the sister resort next door Now Onyx. We only stayed 4 nights & 5 days so unfortunately we weren’t able to try each one. However, the restaurants we did try were amazing! Each one started the table with a selection of appetizers & house wine, then we were able to choose from a soup or salad, main course & side dishes. Our favorite restaurant by far was Coquette which served French cuisine.
Rather than share every outfit I wore on our vacation, I’ve decided to feature my favorite look which is this Off-The-Shoulder Shift Dress from TJ Maxx. I paired it with an Urban Expressions Crossbody Bag that I purchased through Stitch Fix, strappy cork-heel wedges & a shell necklace from a previous Punta Cana trip. I am excited to share that I’ve listed this dress on Poshmark for $10. I only wore it the one time, so it’s in like-new condition. If you’re interested in this dress or any other on-trend, lightly worn styles be sure to follow me @luraashli
Lastly, the only thing I would change about this trip was the lack of organization. The resorts we’ve stayed at in the past gave us a quick tour of the resort upon arrival before escorting us to our room, shared a daily itinerary of activities as well as nightly entertainment. However, this resort was kind of a free-for-all. We never knew what was actually going on until we came across it i.e. beach volleyball, water biking, dance parties by the pool etc. Don’t get me wrong, we had an amazing time, but that was the only thing that stood out as being somewhat negative.
Looking at those drinks makes me want to go back!!!!
As always – comfortable & effortless housewife style xoxx
I ended up borrowing this sheer cutout bodysuit & faux leather skirt from my girlfriends; thank goodness I have stylish friends!
