This Robert Trent Jones design at Rose Hall dates back to 1961 and it underwent a renovation in 2004 by Roger Rulewich, one of RTJ’s protégées, when he installed multiple tee complexes and repositioned a number of fairway and greenside bunkers.

Laid out on the foothills that tumble down to the coastline just outside Montego Bay, Half Moon has held a number of prestigious local competitions, including the Jamaica Open, the Dunhill Cup Final of the Americas, and the Red Stripe Pro-Am.

With a par of 72 and measuring between 5,148 and 7,119 yards, depending on which of four tees are selected at each hole, Half Moon is capable of providing a relaxed, holiday game from the forward markers or a serious golfing challenge from the back pegs.

The Half Moon Resort has joined forces with the White Witch at the Ritz-Carlton Resort and Cinnamon Hill Oceanfront course to offer a fantastic 54-hole playing package that’s well worth consideration.

First off, this is a beautiful part of the world and if you stay locally at the Rose Hall resort or the Half Moon resort then you are in for a treat, it is a real 5-star experience. The Half Moon course though is somewhat disappointing and not anywhere near the test that I expected plus it was a little scruffy in places. As far as the holes are concerned just a little predictable really! Favourite hole was the doglegging 4th; a very short par-4 with a ravine just short of the green. I had a good time playing golf here but more because of the location and the very warm welcome from all of the staff than the actual course. The very best hole on the course was the 19th! Situated perfectly after the ninth and eighteenth greens and a lovely place for a Jamaican Red Stripe or two. As far as a rating goes - a 6-ball for the service but only a 3-ball for the course.
