Why should you trust us?

The Swank Guide has partnered with Booking.com and Tripadvisor to provide easy booking links for the hotels we recommend. Why? Because it ensures we can get you the lowest price, and it helps us continue to bring you empowering and entertaining content.

This new booking feature does not signal a change in our total editorial independence or in our status as a fully fan-supported business. Simply put: we have no financial relationship with any hotel or experience we recommend. We do not accept bags of cash, Dodgers tickets, sacrificial animals or blushing flatteries. The only way to get recommended by Swank is if we've tried it, loved it and would recommend it to our family and friends.

Swank you!

  • The Half Moon Resort, Rose Hall St James Jamaica WI, Montego Bay, Jamaica
  • Price guide: $$$$$
  • Experience: Couple Getaways
  • We loved: The secluded and private feel to the resort, despite it being only 15 minutes from the airport; the individual design of each villa; the dueling vibes of the Half Moon versus the neighboring Eclipse area (old-school and nostalgic, versus modern and slick with 'Architectural Digest' vibes) - if it's the Hollywood version of Jamaica that you're hoping for, go with the Half Moon.

The Half Moon Resort is one of our top 10 hotels in Jamaica. In this first part of our Jamaica’s best hotels series, we’ll take you through our experience at the Half Moon, outside Montego Bay, where the old-school charm of the original resort meets the swanky new Eclipse addition. Consider it the best of both worlds, baby.

Picture yourself lounging by the gorgeous pools, sipping on a cocktail and soaking up the tropical vibes. Whether you want a peaceful spot or a livelier atmosphere, the resort’s pool areas have got you covered. Get your tan on and chill.

When it comes to food, Half Moon Resort has you well taken care of too. A range of restaurants here serve up everything from delicious local Jamaican dishes to international goodies. Whether you’re into fancy candlelit dinners or chilling out by the beach with some tasty treats, be assured they’ve got something to satisfy all your taste buds.

The best part? Half Moon Resort is just 15 minutes away from Montego Bay Airport, so you won’t have to wait long to start enjoying your vacation. Plus, there are different accommodation options: from hotel rooms, to individual bungalows and palatial mansions.
