Like others we were a little nervous about booking this trip. It's not inexpensive and we really wanted it to be amazing. Debated on just staying at the Ritz since it's familiar to us.....however, we were pleasantly surprised!!!!!! Upon our arrival, even at the airport , they were waiting for us. Everything was smooth and we were at the hotel... more

I did not expect the to love the Half Moon- I did not think that any property that big would feel intimate, no matter what my travel agent said. And in fact, at the last minute, I almost got cold feet and booked the Ritz Carlton, which I know from experience is my comfort level. Well. i am so glad... more

Our hotel was closed after we booked and British Airways put us up in the Half Moon. Overall it was very good, with our room leading onto the white sand beach. It was lovely and the breakfasts were excellent - enough to fill you till dinner, with plenty of fruit. Dinner though was a little pricey - probably because the... more

We arrived at Half Moon Resort and we were welcomed with open arms. Our experience there was the best I have ever had in any resort I've been too. We had a villa with a butler, chef and maid. The rooms were clean and cool. Our pool was warm and wonderful. I highly recommend you stay. If your in a... more

My family booked one of the resort's Villas, which are in a separate section than the hotel rooms and suites. The Villa experience most definitely is different than the hotel/resort stay experience and I would recommend it to any family travelling together or small group of friends. The villa consisted of five large bedrooms, each with their own bathroom, an... more

We were only going to stay 4 nights but extended our trip another two nights. The hotel is exactly what we wanted and imagined a Carribean hotel would be. Very classy and open air architecture. The service has been great and the people are extremely friendly. Everyone shakes your hand or says hello as you go by. It's contagious. Quick... more

We have just returned from a week at the Half Moon. The hotel is magnificent and we have never experienced such incredible service before at a Hotel Spa. Since we both have High Stress jobs we decided to experience the Stress Management program at the Spa, it was Amazing, so much so that we say that was the Highlight of... more

We just came backe from a 5day stay at the hotel with a 5 year old. The property is very nice, but too stretched out. Prepare to do a lot of walking or waiting for golf carts to give you a ride. The hotel is overpriced. We stayed at the royal suite. It was very "dated". Old 19' TV. I... more

This is a resort with a ton of history - and has lots of character. While very expensive and expansive, this is the place to go if you are looking for a different experience than the standard 5 star resort/hotel. We stayed in a Villa with our own butler/maid/cook right on the beach. While the accomodations were dated and could... more
