We loved Half Moon and plan to return with our children. Lovely resort with everything you need for a relaxing and fun vacation. We enjoyed all the restaurants, multiple pools and beaches and the water sports. The food is a bit pricey but good to very good.
WOW! I visited with my aunt and my mother who has not been to Jamaica in 20 years. What a welcome back it was - the hotel has been renovated and is even more beautiful, the 400_+ acres property is splendid for walks, bike rides and sporting activities - the best part was the staff! Breakfast was the favorite part of the day - the chef and servers were welcoming, warm and professional. Excellent stay! One of the best for us.
I've been staying at the Halfmoon Hotel for over 20 years, it's absolutely one of the best hotels in the entire world and I've traveled the world. Service, accommodations,dinning and entertainment options are unmatched . I highly recommend.
Beautiful beach side bungalow. It was my bday trip and the staff was extremely friendly and kind. I did forget some item they notified me but I never received the items I left behind.
