Nice hotel with good location for us. Room was very spacious - little more space for clothes would have been nice. Big windows in the room and ocean view. Very ftiendly staff. We explored the hole island and the location was good for that. Not mymuch restaurants near by but with car it was no problem. Nice pool and little beach quite near.

Absolutely beautiful views and impeccable service
I honestly can’t say enough positive things about this hotel and our stay. The staff was wonderful and accommodating, even with the language barrier. The entire hotel was pristine clean and the views were amazing! The only slightly less than perfect thing was the firmness of the mattress but my husband loved it, so that’s more personal preference.

We loved our stay at Moon Ocean. Was happy the pool was still open as it was very warm out. I think it is closed Nov-April. All the staff we interacted with were great. I especially enjoyed talking to the lady working in the restaurant / bar. She was so friendly and her English is amazing. I am sorry I forgot her name. :( If you have a car this area is perfect for your stay.
