This is my 4th or 5th visit to this property which I absolutely adore. It’s a completely unpretentious boutique hotel in Stewart Town approximately 5 minutes drive from the Ian Fleming Airport in Boscobel. I usually stay in room 305 but this time I was given room 402. The room had a wonderful balcony with stunningly breathtaking views. In my opinion it’s always advisable to get an ocean view room. There’s no better feeling than being lulled to sleep by the lapping waves and woken up by the sunrise. This room had a sliding door and then a separate mesh door, which means you could leave the glass door open and then slide the mesh door across to keep the mosquitoes out. The room had AC and a ceiling fan. I didn’t use the AC as I’m not really keen on it. Using the overhead fan and leaving the door open was sufficient for me. This room had a coffee machine which I used as a kettle for tea. There was a fridge in the room which I used to store my fruit, salad and water. The bathroom had a bath tub and separate shower. The hot water was always hot and plentiful. The WiFi was a little spotty but that is to be expected in rural Jamaica. It wasn’t a problem for me and allowed me to unwind even more. There is a menu where you can order breakfast lunch and dinner prepared by the wonderful Carlton. I didn’t have breakfast but had several evening meals which were tasty and hearty. In my opinion this is an exceptional hotel and is truly a hidden gem. The pictures of the property on Tripadvisor do not do this property justice and need to be updated. Moxons have their own updated website which shows more recent pictures. If you want to experience a more authentic side of Jamaica, Moxons is for you. I happily get the local route taxis and buses to Ocho Rios (about 15 minutes away) and to visit family about 20 minutes away. I move around the community and use the local shops in Stewart town for water, fruit and snacks without any issues.  If you want a sanitised version of Jamaica where you stay in all inclusive resorts and only leave the property on escorted tours, do not come to Moxons. The owner Johanne and her butler Carlton always make me feel like I’m coming home.

Perfect oasis

The pool and beach area are awesome. Unfortunately it rained the whole time we were there; I was very upset as we could not enjoy all the facilities but they looked great. There’s also a lounge with games and a pool table which we played at night, and an outdoor lounge area. The rooms are very basic but super clean!! Highly recommend, and thank you Joanne and Carlton for being amazing hosts! 

Awesome private beach! 

When we arrived we were greeted by the owner herself, Johanne. She took us to a gorgeous suite with terrace overlooking the ocean. 
It was so peaceful and quiet which was just what we wanted. 
We were also treated with a personal Butler who was charming and catered to our ever need, from delicious Jamaican style breakfasts to cocktails and dinner. 
If you are looking or a relaxing stay in a boutique styled small hotel this is it. 

Great relaxing stay!

This was my third visit  to this private boutique property, and each time I go, there are more and more creative and artistic improvements and unique touches.  Although the proprietor , Johanne, is quite selective on her guests, as she is enjoying her peaceful space while preparing the property for a future re-opening.  I  have stayed at the hotel, when fully staffed with restaurant, bar and beach service, and I have also enjoyed the property on an airbnb basis.  I continue to enjoy the property more on each visit. Can't wait for American Airlines direct service to Ocho Rios from Miami.  Thanks for allowing me the opportunity and hope you re-open soon.

Bohemian Hideaway

We feel very sad to be leaving this hidden gem today.   We have been here for the past 5 nights and enjoyed a wonderful time.
We did not want an all inclusive resort or hotel but wanted freedom to explore the amazing Jamaica.    Moxons certainly offered all that we wished for.  It is not really a beach club but a sanctuary of peace and tranquility.
The location is amazing and to have been able to sit on the hotels private pontoon with just the sound of the sea around you, felt like heaven.
We needed to get away on holiday to relax as we had just injured a traumatic 18 months.  We certainly found that Moxons offered us all that we needed.
The staff are friendly and willing to go that extra mile to please it’s guests.  If you need anything, you just need to ask.
Ken makes the most special cocktails and always greats with a lovely smile.   His martini- shaken not stirred - is delicious and as you sip looking out at the sea, James Bond really does spring to mind - magical.
To have found out after our arrival, that Moxons was build by Timothy Moxon (played John Strangways) made it feel even more special - a truly hidden gem and a must for James Bond fans.
Joanna the owner is a truly fascinating lady and with all thanks to her, Moxons lives on.
We have eaten here on 3 of our 5 nights and enjoyed the best food that Jamaica has to offer.
We will be back.

Haven

I booked this beach resort as a change from the all inclusive resorts I usually frequent and boy was I glad I did.  It was a smaller boutique styled hotel with an unassuming front and with only a few rooms some with beach views and others with courtyard views.  I had one with a courtyard view and it was fine.  What was outstanding were the views of the beach and sea from some rooms and for me from their onsite restaurant.  I spent most of my time out of my room and beachside enjoying rafting, snorkeling and swimming from one of two of their piers.  I also spent a lot of time on their piers lounging on their lounge chairs.  It is a short drive from Ian Fleming Airport where I flew into.  I would stay at this beach resort again but next time I would book a room with a beach view.

Unassuming front but Amazing Beach View

We have been coming to Moxons for years. It yas been perfect for us. Small, quiet rustic elegance, great people. The owner has been adding two new seaside rooms over the last couple of years, and we just had the opportunity to stay in one....
Extraordinary addition! Large room, private, wall of glass and balcony overlooking the sea...
Also great ameneties,and an excellent shower!
The restaurant is open to the sea, and generates basic, very good Jamaican cuisine. It is all from scratch, so you wait a while for your meal.
If you want a big all inclusive, this is not for you. If you want a lovely, safe, comfortable stay, right on the sea, with no hustle and bustle, stay here!

Even better!

Peaceful, beautiful, tranquil, lovely place to stay at,  I will definitely be going back again.  Clean room, nice surroundings and a great owner, very accommodating. A must visit location,  affordable and lovely little resort.  Carry a friend or friends and hangout. 

Moxons beach resort is tranquility 

Our room had everything you'd need.  The AC in the room worked very good, and the shower had the most pressure and hottest water we had experienced in Jamaica.  If you enjoy art decor of South Beach Miami you'll like Moxon. If you're looking for a modern day resort. This is not the place for you. If you enjoy a big panoramic view of the Caribbean, a relaxing, laid back environment, and friendly staff. You will absolutely LOVE Moxon Beach Resort. 

Relaxation, beautiful panoramic views and friendly staff 

I initially booked to stay 6 nights but really didn’t want to leave, so stayed an extra 2 nights. This isn’t your average all inclusive wild beach parties huge impersonal type of establishment. Moxons is approximately a 15 minute drive away from Ocho Rios on the north coast, so very easy to get to. The hotel doesn’t seem like much when you drive up to it, but once you’re inside, you can appreciate the tranquility. I stayed in room 303 and I was immediately transfixed by the view beyond the French doors. I think I took a picture every single day from that terrace. The room was quite large and had a separate reading room as you entered. There were no problems with the shower pressure and I had hot water daily. The room has a fridge and a lockable safe in the wardrobe. Meals are not included but you can easily get a route taxi or public minibus (for less than £1) into Ocho Rios and eat breakfast there or buy something from the local supermarkets. Btw local public transport is not for the faint hearted. I have had many years experience of using them so I’m okay with it. I felt completely safe and peaceful at Moxons and really didn’t want to leave but work beckons. The WiFi in the room wasn’t brilliant but it’s good in the restaurant area. I thought this might be an issue but it actually made me relax more.  The room comes equipped with tea/coffee making facilities, AC and a ceiling fan. You can request an iron & ironing board to be left in your room. I just wish that I could have spent more of my days actually in the hotel just lounging by the sea and relaxing. I might just have to sneak back into Jamaica and not tell the family.
