I had a decent stay at the Moon Palace Jamaica. The beach is breathtaking and truly one of the highlights of my trip. The service was on par with what I expect from a Moon Palace resort, but I found the food options to be lacking in variety and quality compared to my previous visits. While the facilities are impressive, they do show some signs of wear. Overall, it was more expensive than similar places in Mexico, which I found a bit hard to justify.
