Location: Montego Bay, Jamaica.

It’s an old hotel that was built on a plantation, its scenery is beautiful and it is well known for being a lovely location to get married. The hotel has a mixture of rooms, villas and suites where most of them overlook the sea and the view is amazing especially at sunset. Service received is great and pretty much everything is at your fingertips as just next door to the hotel is the Halfmoon Shopping Centre (selling everything from diamonds and clothes to arts and crafts there are also pubs and banks in the shopping centre) and there is also the internationally known Halfmoon Golf Course.

The hotel is a little bit pricey but for a chilled weekend alone with no disturbances I would recommend it. There are lots of activities to do such as windsurfing, sailing, snorkelling, hiking, volleyball and tennis. It has its very own horse stables for horseback riding and polo as well as its very own dolphin cove. The things I enjoy most about Half moon is that they allow you to rent bicycles and golf carts to ride around the plantation which is a great way to see more of it as well as to exercise for those who are looking for that.  As for restaurants and lounges there is the SeaGrape Terrance which is the Hotel’s very own restaurant, there is also the Sugar Mill restaurant which is found at the rear the hotel’s golf course.

Another thing I like about the hotel is that when you first check into your room they give you some Halfmoon butter and coconut cookies which taste quite nice and are free.
