Palace Resorts plans to open its first property outside of Mexico. Expected to debut in early 2015, the Moon Palace Jamaica Grande will undergo a multi-million dollar renovation before opening at Ocho Rios Bay, Jamaica.
Set to begin renovations this September, the resort will include modernized guestrooms, overhauled meeting spaces, upgrades and redesigns of the common areas, and restaurant updates. Conceived by French designer Francois Frossard, the resort interiors will blend whimsical, European influences with chic Caribbean undertones.
“The natural beauty of Ocho Rios combined with the appeal of the iconic property, provided an enviable launching pad for the next chapter in Palace Resorts’ story,” says Gibran Chapur, executive vice president of Palace Resorts. “As we cement our footprint in the Caribbean, it is our hope that Moon Palace Jamaica Grande becomes Jamaica’s top entertainment destination, bringing economic growth and positively impacting the island.”
Moon Palace Jamaica Grande will offer the most meeting space of any hotel in Jamaica. Boasting 30,000 square feet of multi-functional space, the property will house multiple meeting rooms, ballrooms, exhibition areas, and an outdoor terrace.
Moon Palace Jamaica Grande will also feature five dining destinations, including gourmet Asian, traditional Italian, and modern Caribbean restaurants.
