I was not impressed at all with Half Moon. The rooms were old and patched up. The beds were horrible and the rooms were not cleaned properly. If you want a first rate hotel, go next door and Stay at the Ritz! I would have to say that there isn't any reason why you would want to stay at a... More

We stayed at the Half Moon for our honeymoon - and it was fabulous!! We were upgraded to a Royal Suite beachfront on the water - gorgeous view!! Our bathroom was HUGE and all marble with a seperate shower and bath. I have been to many Caribbean islands, and though Jamaica can have a bad reputation, this hotel made it... More

We arrived hot and tired from a long flight at 12 noon to be told our room wasn't ready and suggested we went and had some lunch. When we had finished eating we enquired about the room and were told it still was not ready. We asked on the hour, every hour (no-one was forthcoming with an answer or seemed... More

My husband and I have traveled to many different resorts and hotels (Bahamas, Dominican, Bermuda, Jamaica, Mexico) and we would rate the Half Moon as one of our best experiences. I am not sure if by reading all of the bad reviews, it somehow set us up for expecting the worst. We arrived in Jamaica at about 12:30 PM. We... More

I love tripadvisor and always look at resort reviews prior to booking, but my experience at Half Moon was horrible and nothing like the previous reviews. Experience and expectations are all subjective, so let me start by saying that my husband and I have no kids and will spend extra to get 5-star luxury when traveling. We don't do many... More

Some rooms are great, others are dilapidated dumps. Some rooms are clean, others dirty. Regular staff could not be nicer, management is unavailable and unresponsive. One thing for sure, the grounds are spectacular. One real problem is that if you want to eat dinner with your kids at 6 pm, there is no place to accomodate you.

We have just returned from Half Moon. Half Moon exceeded all of our expectations...rare these days. Our Junior Suite in Cottage 5 was lovely and spotless and connected to a similar Junior Suite with a balcony(which could be closed for privacy). We had three 18 year old young men with us in the adjoining Junior Suite. We overlooked Sunset Beach.The... More

Do NOT stay in the Orleander Wing. It was old and dirty. There were big air conditioners above the doors that creaked and groaned throughout the night. The beach was disappointing, Negril and Ocho Rios are better. Staff was nice if you were nice to them, some tourists weren't during our stay. Jamaican people are wonderful and gracious. Dolphins are... More

We stayed in Half Moon from January 14-24 and it was great! We were coming from Europe through London via Air Jamaica. Resort has big landscape ( colonial style buildings only), it is remote if you seek for quite getaway. However, some suggestions: 1.dont put any electronics in your luggage-our camera was stolen in Montego Bay airport upon arrival, 2.... More
