The morning buffet breakfast has a large variety of delicious foods. Perhaps they should consider having an evening buffet especially when SugarMill is closed.

It was a truly lovely place, the people were all very friendly and welcoming. However, the food options were limited and while there were several restaurants, some weren't open the days we were there and the few that were always open served very similar items. Costs were also quite high and "all-inclusive" is being used very loosely.

The Beginning of an Annual Tradition
I had a wonderful experience at Half Moon. The staff was friendly, the property was beautiful, the management was accomodating, food was excellent and they had an interesting take on traditional cuisine items. I would also say vegan friendly. Do try out the Sugar Mill and Delmare restaurant. From day one, Fitzgerald, Tricia, Kemoya, too many to name were so accomodating. Ive had experiences at various hotels in Jamaica and by far this has been the best yet. I also like that they didnt have the typical hotel entertainment, thus I was able to have a relaxing vacation. The only con I would say is that the Founders Cove area can be updated a bit. However, this did not take away from the experience. Also forgot to mention the Fern Tree Spa, please get a massage, Denisha was the best. Shes very skilled at what she does. Book the hotel and go you wont regret it.

Enchanting Half Moon!
Our stay at the Half Moon was AMAZING!!! The entire resort was fit for royalty with amenities and service over and beyond even for a 5 star resort. Great access to private beaches. Some seaweed was present a few feet into the water but it was not bad. Delmare restaurant was incredible both in food and service! The Concierge and front seat were staffed with professionals that made us feel like family. We cannot wait to return!

The Hotel feels like home away from home on a tropical island in the sun. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful and always aimed to please. Our only disappointment was the lack of food choice on the property and we thought the meal plans could be better and more varied. All in all an excellent hotel in a beautiful location. We can’t wait to come back! ❤️
