My husband and I stayed at Carlisle Bay for a recent getaway - just the two of us. We were extremely impressed! The location is beautiful, the facilities are elegant yet embracing (I was worried it might be a bit too uber-chic based on the website), and the amenities (private movie theater, library, etc.) are top-notch. The resort has an... more

We had heard great things about Carlisle Bay and were looking forward enormously to our visit. The beach is beautiful, the rooms are huge and stunning, the food is excellent and the staff are all first class. However, it didn't quite do it for us. The spa is disappointing and does not compare with places like Peter Island. I think... more

Very friendly staff, always welcoming and helpful. Our suite had a lovely large king bed with beautiful cotton sheets and a separate bedroom with two good size singles for the children. Two large comfortable sofas and a large arm chair made it easy for all of us to relax after a day on the beach, all the US tv channels... more

It takes any new hotel a while to settle down and become perfect. Carlisle Bay has got there. This was our third trip and by far the best. The grounds have grown up and look luxurious. The food is glorious. There are only occasional lapses - the service in Indigo can depend on who is in charge that day. But... more

A totally delightful, laid back, stylish hotel. It combines beautiful, understated design, with friendly service with pretty good food in a really fabulous setting. If you're after 'bling' or having your sunglasses cleaned five times a day - well, this isn't for you. CB is about relaxation and peace. Ok there are a few water sports and a couple of... more

I stayed in this hotel only one night, but I think I got a good feel for what it is like. Arrival was very pleasant. We (I went with my wife) were greeted at the entrance by a staff member who took us into the large pavilion style lobby. He brought us a cold towel and a nonalcoholic drink, and... more

We were expecting a five star hotel and resort and were a little bit disappointed by Carlisle Bay in this respect. Its a nice place, a very nice place infact, but not quite up to the level and standards you expect of a leading hotel. So we spent our first few days a little underwhelmed and a bit deflated. The... more

The Carlisle Bay Resort is one of the most beautiful and chic retreats in Antigua. Its grounds are just enjoyable – the emerald jungle, bright tropical flowers, shining white sand on the beach and warm azure sea. In comparison to Galley Bay Resort, it looks “aristocratically civilized” rather than simply and conveniently adopted to the natural environment, but un-snobbish and... more

My wife and I spend long weekend (5 days) at Carlisle Bay. This is a nice Resort with the same quality as Little Dix Bay and Jumby Bay. Ocean suite rooms are large with a nice bathroom area. The resort was at 50% capacity this week, so no crowds on the beach. We were on a ground floor room which... more
