There are several words for break (meaning a pause or interval) : pleidhe, beàrn, tràth saor...
I'd say "Tha mi 'n dòchas gu bheil am pleidhe a' còrdadh riut. Tha mi 'n dòchas nach eil thu gar n-ionndrainn cus.

A lot of Gaelic speakers would probably use
Laithean Saora or
Laithean Dheth .... depending on the context.
Break here looks more like holiday or time off as opposed to pause or interval so I would say:
Tha mi 'n dòchas gu bheil na laithean saora agad a' còrdadh riut. Tha mi 'n dòchas nach eil thu gar n-ionndrainn cus.

Hello to the two replys. Thank you very much for helping me wit the tr*nsl*t**n. Good to know that help is available. Thanks Stephen, I sent the e-mail to my friend and he knew you had been a good help.
Hope to gain more knowledge of the Gaelic language.
