The very name should tell you that this is no ordinary hotel. Former model
Gloria Knapp opened a bistro in this 1850s building in 1980, and now she
and her husband Reinhold have lovingly restored the property to create
this intimate and intriguing hotel. It is quaint, atmospheric, friendly,
relaxed and truly unique. Half Moon has just 9 rooms all of which overlook
the sea and the premier room is the Penthouse which is a romantic haven
of lace and drapes at the top of the hotel. The bar could have been lifted
out of old Havana and the Belle Creole restaurant serves lovely local dishes
- Gumbos, spicy crayfish-cakes and Mammy's apple chutney! Relax by the
pool or take a 5 minute stroll down to Bacolet Beach with all its facilities
including a beach bar serving tasty snacks all day. Half Moon Blue used
to be a well-kept secret but as its popularity grows early booking is becoming
more and more important. We think this is a real gem where the charming
Asha waits to give you a warm welcome.
