Ocho Rios stays planned by TAYA
Moon Palace Jamaica is a 705-room all-inclusive resort on a private beachfront in Ocho Rios, and it operates on a grand scale: sprawling grounds, marble-finished interiors and an extensive list of facilities. The signature draw is a FlowRider surf simulator on the sand, backed by four pools, four restaurants and water sports from snorkeling to scuba diving. The resort is family-friendly.

This 705-room all-inclusive resort occupies a private beachfront in Ocho Rios. Accommodation spans named room categories and suite options, and the facility mix includes four pools, four restaurants, the Awe Spa and a beachfront FlowRider surf simulator.
Scale and polish define the stay. The grounds sprawl along the beachfront, marble finishes give the interiors a formal, opulent character, and the amenity list runs long rather than selective, from a surf simulator to a spa with 23 treatment rooms. The pace suits travelers who want a full-featured resort with everything on one site, and the spread-out layout puts real distance between facilities.
The stay runs on an all-inclusive meal plan, and buffet breakfast is served at Buccaneers Reef. Beyond dining, the four pools, Awe Spa, fitness center and private beachfront with its water sports zone are on-site facilities. Activities including the FlowRider, snorkeling, paddleboarding, sailing, kayaking, scuba diving and the waterslide are available at the resort.
The resort has 705 rooms. Named categories include Ocean View, Partial Ocean View, Family Deluxe and Concierge Level, alongside suites that range from the Superior Walk Out Suite to the Superior Two Bedrooms Presidential Suite.
Choices fall into four named room categories: Ocean View, Partial Ocean View, Family Deluxe and Concierge Level. The suite inventory adds further options, including the Superior Walk Out Suite, Superior Junior Suite Ocean View, Superior Governor Suite and Superior Two Bedrooms Presidential Suite.
Four suite categories are named at the resort: the Superior Walk Out Suite, Superior Junior Suite Ocean View, Superior Governor Suite and Superior Two Bedrooms Presidential Suite. A Concierge Level category also appears among the named room options, giving the inventory a further distinction.
Four restaurants and three bars cover food and drinks, while recreation centers on four pools, a private beachfront and the FlowRider surf simulator. Awe Spa adds 23 treatment rooms, and a fitness center with cardio and weight machines rounds out the facility mix.
Dining runs through four restaurants: La Gondola, Momo, Pier 8 and Buccaneers Reef, the last of these serving the buffet breakfast. Drinks come from three bars, the Martini Bar, Loud Bar and Club Noir. That is a compact dining lineup for a 705-room property, so the same venues anchor most meals across a stay.
Four pools sit alongside a private beachfront with sandy areas and a dedicated water sports zone. The Awe Spa operates 23 treatment rooms, and a fitness center with cardio and weight machines is on site. Activities include the FlowRider surf simulator, the resort’s signature experience on the beachfront, plus snorkeling, paddleboarding, sailing, kayaking, scuba diving and a waterslide.
