 (Half Moon has been awarded four diamonds by
AAA for over 27 consecutive years
~ the only resort in the Caribbean to have earned such an
achievement.)
I began my love affair with the hypnotic;
captivating island of Jamaica in the early 80’s and continue to plan
my escapes there whenever time will permit.
Ten years ago we wandered into Half Moon quite
by accident, fell head over heels for the place and have been
recommending this gem with great success ever since. My recent
trip here in May allowed me to enjoy the $15.5 million refurbishment
and update of the resort along with outstanding
staff continuously making sure Half Moon
secures it’s reputation as one of the top luxury resorts in the
Caribbean. The quest for excellence continues at this luxurious
oasis of 400 acres with lush
tropical beauty and the friendly; nothing is too much trouble
attitude of the staff prevails.
Customers I have sent always say:
“How will we ever top this vacation?”
Simple, I reply: “Just go back…” And many of
them do!
A variety of rooms, luxury suites (request a
suite in the new Hibiscus wing ~ book early, they’re popular!) and
villas with a private staff are waiting to pamper you and follow
thru on any request you have during your stay.
Outstanding specialty restaurants: Seagrapes,
Il Giardino and Sugar Mill are some of the best you will find in The
Caribbean. A new spa will be completed by winter of 2007 bringing
the best in treatments
and services to guests with a true Jamaican ambiance.
A wide array of activities are offered
namely: horseback riding at an exclusive Equestrian Center, tennis,
water sports, dolphin lagoon with a variety of encounter and swim
programs for Half Moon guests only, golf on an award winning, newly
renovated 7,141 yard par-72 championship course designed by Robert
Trent Jones Sr., new Anancy children’s village and designer shopping
in Half Moon’s own shopping village.
And when you’re through with all of that the
inviting pools and magnificent beaches await….
Whether you are planning a family vacation,
wedding/honeymoon (fantastic packages are available to plan the day
of your dreams with your own wedding coordinator on property) or a
simple getaway with your special someone, Half Moon is for you!
