It's been all quiet on the blog front these past few days because, well, we've been on a little tropical vacay. Nine of zzdtravel's finest hit up the in Montego Bay, Jamaica for a four-day weekend excursion -- and we did it in style. Since we were traveling in a large group, we shacked up in one of Half Moon's lavish Royal Villas -- ours was a seven-bedroom setup with a private pool -- and, of course, we did our job even when on vacation and came home with plenty of photos.

So, what does throwing down $1750 $1480* per night (kicked up to $2800 during the high season!) get you at Half Mo0n? In addition to your villa's own butler, cook, and housekeeper, your bronzed and boozey body will be enjoying the following:

A private pool…

…two stories of beachy chic decor…

*price updated to reflect the deal we got by booking with Half Moon’s Fall Break offer: we’d booked a Garden View 5-bedroom villa and were upgraded to a 7-bedroom villa upon arrival; we paid for all four nights, which came out to $164 per person, per night. Wow. Additionally, groceries for 9 people for a 4-day, 4-night trip came out to $560 total.

…killer balcony space…

…a huge living area…

…breakfast, lunch, and dinner from an in-house cook…

…seven rooms with king beds…

…and flat-screen TVs.

Not bad, eh?
