You enjoy luxury travel and you\u2019re thinking of a tropical vacation at a Jamaica resort. While you\u2019ve entertained the thought of an all-inclusive Caribbean resort<\/a>, you\u2019re not sure if it\u2019s for you.\u00a0 Let\u2019s explore what your all-inclusive vacation would be like if you were to travel to Moon Palace Jamaica Grande resort and spa in Ocho Rios, Jamaica.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Arriving in Jamaica<\/b><\/h2>\n

There are three major airports in Jamaica, but you want to fly into Montego Bay.\u00a0 The Jamaica Grande offers free shuttle service to and from this airport only.\u00a0 You could also arrive at Kingston, but that would entail an additional charge for transportation. You\u2019ll receive a letter ahead of time, confirming the shuttle company that will meet you, so take that along and have it ready as you pass through customs.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s about an hour\u2019s drive to the resort, so sit back and relax, you\u2019re in the Caribbean Islands, you\u2019re in paradise, your holiday has just started, and now\u2019s the time to rest before you arrive at your top all-inclusive resort. Tip: if you want to see the ocean as you drive, sit on the left side of the bus.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Just before you enter the resort gates, you\u2019ll drive through the city streets of Ocho Rios.\u00a0 You\u2019ll notice a plethora of sidewalk shops and mini-malls with stores and food vendors galore.\u00a0 These are about a ten or fifteen-minute walk from Moon Palace, so you\u2019ll be able to explore the town easily from the resort.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Arriving at Jamaica Grande<\/b><\/h1>\n

Pulling into this gated resort, your driver will deliver you to the porte-cochere where you\u2019ll be met with a cool cloth to refresh yourself and a ginger\/pineapple beverage that sets the tropical mood.\u00a0 Your bags will be tagged and after registering at the front desk, you\u2019ll be outfitted with a wristband that stays on the entire time you are at the resort.\u00a0 It denotes the level of your reservation package; but only a very few areas are reserved exclusively for VIP Elite members. A bellman will then escort you to your room and bring your bags.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Jamaica<\/p>\n

Be prepared to be amazed at the size and length of the lobby area. It\u2019s massive, it\u2019s all marble and it\u2019s gorgeous. Moon Palace just took on new meaning, as this is just what a palace interior should be like.<\/p>\n

\"Moon-Palace-Jamaica-Grande-lobby\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

When we met our bellman, he gave us a little tour of the property on the way to the elevator. In just the first-floor lobby, you\u2019ll find vacation planners to help arrange tours or special events, a gift shop, a business center with computers and a printer, an ATM, a full-service photo studio, a purser\u2019s office to make change or convert currency and clever, computer-controlled elevators.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

But, we aren\u2019t done. To satisfy your hunger, you\u2019ll also find Momo (for Asian cuisine), NOIR disco nightclub, Boulangerie Coffee shop with fabulous bakery treats, a martini\/piano bar, and a food court with assorted international specialties. And there are more places to eat downstairs\u2026you won\u2019t be going hungry.<\/p>\n
