I had an unfortunate experience at this hotel that overshadowed what could have been a relaxing stay. While the room had stunning views and was comfortable for a night, the overall service was lacking, particularly during breakfast and check-out. The location was convenient due to its proximity to the hospital, but I was left feeling more like a dollar sign than a valued guest. I can't recommend this hotel based on my experience.

I had a shocking experience upon arrival at the hotel, marked by poor reception and rudeness from the staff. After waiting outside for over 20 minutes, we felt unwelcome and treated with suspicion despite our intention to make a reservation. However, I later learned that the property has gorgeous facilities and great service from returning guests, suggesting that my visit may not have represented their usual standards. I can't see myself returning after such a disappointing first impression.

Our stay at Half Moon was simply unforgettable! The villas offered a beautiful view, and the helpful service truly made our vacation special. The beach was just steps away, making it perfect for relaxation. However, the villas could have felt a bit more modern and luxurious.

I just returned from my second visit to this lovely resort, and it was as restful and renewing as the first. The rooms are spacious, beautifully designed, and offer breathtaking ocean views. The staff is incredibly warm and welcoming, which makes the experience truly special. While the dining options at the new vegan restaurant were delightful, I felt some areas could use a bit more attention, especially the golf course facilities, which were not up to par this time around.

Our stay at Half Moon was absolutely unforgettable! We were treated like family by the wonderful staff, and the breathtaking views made us never want to leave. The beachfront villa was clean and spacious, perfect for our family's needs. The dining options were delicious, but we could have used a bit more variety. Overall, it's an amazing and safe escape, but I wish the Wi-Fi was a tad stronger in the villa.
