In Magento 2 many of the .phtml files have been replaced by xml files, if you look in catalog_product_view.xml you will see that this controls the structure of the product page. You can move the description by adding the below to catalog_product_view.xml

<move element="product.info.description" destination="product.info.main" before="product.info.addto"/>

I have found the most useful resource is http://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.0/frontend-dev-guide/layouts/xml-manage.html#layout_markup_rearrange

  • This seem not to work anymore for Magento 2.1.5. Can anyone confirm?

  • This doesn't place it above the "Add to Cart" button as OP asked (and nor does changing after to before).

The accepted answer didn't work for me, as the description was still below the "Add to Cart" button. I managed to solve my problem with the following:

<move element="product.info.description" destination="product.info.main" after="product.info.price" />
