OUR SPECIAL PLACE

Royal Villas at Half Moon

If you’re looking for the perfect setting to entertain clients, the Royal Villas at Half Moon is the ideal location. So says Catherine McDonald, Communications Manager for J Wray & Nephew.

Half Moon has been the resort of choice for Jamaica’s premier rum brand for almost 10 years. “We host our customers and international press at Half Moon at least twice per year. Our customers love the villa setting with the private rooms and communal living room and pool areas,” McDonald advised.

In addition to the resort’s four-, five-, six- and seven-bedroom villas, Half Moon’s spacious layout has attracted companies like J Wray and Nephew to host their premier events and meetings. “The conference facilities are great and the venues for events are exceptional. When we have our clients here, we can host them for dinner at different venues every night,” McDonald said.

Some of her favourite venues include the Sugar Mill Restaurant, the Oleander Terrace and the resort’s Royal Pavilion.

According to the J Wray and Nephew communications exec, what truly sets Half Moon apart is the hospitality. “The villas have a homey feel. The staff (of cook, butler and housekeeper) taking care of everything, serving a great Jamaican breakfast instead of a hotel buffet is just excellent. Our clients really love the experience,” she said.
