We stayed here for 4 nights and although the staff was extremely nice our suite which was a 3 bedroom suite was not at all what we saw advertised online. We had 3 bedrooms and only one of them had a tv. The coffee maker didnt work and we had to call to have it replaced. There was one phone... More

What a beautiful hotel! We stay at luxury hotels all over the world, but this has to be my favourite so far. Our room is huge, contemporary and with a stunning view (Ocean Suite 3rd floor). Tea and water are free and you get your own coffee making machine. The hotel is set in a fruit forrest with a beautiful... More

The facilities at the hotel were excellent with a large gym, well kept tennis courts and a wide range of water-sports (most of which are free!). The service was fantastic and the food was unexpectedly brilliant. Drinks seemed to be expensive but I believe that is also because of exchange rate from Sterling.

The owners and management should be sued for False Advertisement! I am surprised it had not happened yet. All their pictures on the web are extremely photo- shopped . As somebody mentioned, the photographer did a great job photoshopping the colors. In reality they just scam people.! There is NO torques water, NO silky sand, NO clean swimming pool. Everything...

Dear Snowman61 Whilst it was pleasing to read that you appreciated the service standards at Carlisle Bay and felt that our food was great, we were nonetheless extremely disappointed with your overall assessment. For many, and it is a comment we hear repeatedly, our beach is a significant factor for many guests choosing to return to Carlisle Bay time and... More

I recently visited this lovely hotel. Having read the reviews I was slightly concerned about some of the aspects of the place but I could not disagree more with the negative comments of other reviewers. I have been to several islands in the Caribbean and stayed at a number of 5 star resorts. Not one of them is better than... More

My wife and I just returned from Carlisle Bay and had a truly WONDERFUL experience. We are New Yorkers, so looking for an easy (non-stop) flight and pleased to discover Antigua offers several direct American, Delta and US Airways flight options. In terms of the property - everything is as advertised on their (great) website. Beach is great, secluded, comfortable/relaxing.... More

I would only recommend Carlisle Bay to young families. Its certainly not a place to party or for single people. For young families, this place offers the whole family a chance to completely relax. The staff are unbelievably nice and extremely helpful and service it certainly top notch for Caribbean standards. From the children's menus, baby puree options, babysitting service... More

We had a wonderfull time At Carlise Bay. We had ocean front suite which was worth the money spend on.Really wonderful time. We drove around the island a little bit and i think looking at the other hotels that this was the best choice we could have made on the Island.
