Halal World Travel
Crescent Moon Rating System
At Halal World Travel, we understand that every Muslim traveller has unique needs when it comes to comfort, dining, and faith-based facilities. To help our guests make informed decisions, we’ve introduced the Crescent Moon Rating — our in-house standard for assessing how Muslim-friendly a hotel or resort is.
The rating ranges from 1 to 5 Crescent Moons (🌙), with 5 being the highest level of Muslim-friendly accommodation. Each property is independently reviewed based on three key pillars:
- Halal Food Availability
- Alcohol Policy
- Muslim-Friendly Facilities & Amenities
