About the Hotel

Carlisle Bay Resort’s take on a Caribbean retreat is decidedly sophisticated, where plantation shutters highlight modern décor in a muted color palette of sage, gray and white. The ambiance is discreet enough for royalty – count Camilla Parker Bowles among recent guests – and a haven for exploration via sailboat or yacht. Three nearby Royal Yachting Association courses offer a prime opportunity to strengthen your captaining skills, and an endless network of coves and lagoons invites lazy afternoons of champagne cruises.

Reviews for Carlisle Bay

Quality resort, superb beach

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 4 days ago

Staff amazing, food amazing, beach amazing. Met with a smile, snorkelling with rainbow fish, walking with sting rays on the shore, swatted some Moskitos, ate some snapper, fell asleep on the chair. Played some tennis, worked off the pasta in the gym. Amazing.

One of the "Best" places to stay in Antigua

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 week ago

From the time one enters the Carlisle Bay Resort you know by the greeting from the Senior Guest Assistant Nakia you have come to the right place for vacation. As a family of 5 celebrating a 70th birthday event in a beautifully appointed 3 bedroom beachfront suite we were immediately impressed by the housekeeping staff from the morning to turn down service in the evening. The courtesy, friendliness and service of every staff member was exceptional. The 4 exquisite restaurants with an excellent choice in menu selections from the afternoon tea, to Japanese cuisine, Italian bistro, American fare and BBQ was immensely appreciated by us all. All this I believe comes from the guidance of the General Manager Mr. Rajiv Malhotra and his Director of Operations, Brian Murphy who exert every effort to eliminate any issues immediately that may arise which would leave a negative impression of the resort. The Carlisle Bay Antigua deserves the ranking for one of “The Leading Hotels of the World.” We all agreed to return again in the future! Cheryl Fils-Aimé

Five Stars – A Fantastic Stay at Carlisle Bay

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 weeks ago

We had such a great stay at Carlisle Bay – it’s a beautiful spot and the whole experience was really memorable from start to finish. The setting is stunning, with the beach right on your doorstep and the whole place surrounded by lush greenery. Our room was lovely – really comfortable, clean, and felt like a perfect space to unwind. The food was consistently great throughout our stay, with lots of variety and everything really well done. But what really stood out for us was the staff – everyone was so warm, friendly, and genuinely helpful. A few special mentions: Jason and Seymour made us some fantastic cocktails and were always a pleasure to chat with. Dede at East looked after us so well on my birthday night – really appreciated the extra care. Garfield and Prince gave us an amazing boat trip we won’t forget. Michael was brilliant at breakfast each morning, always welcoming and on the ball. And a big thanks to Brian, the manager, whose attention to detail and approachability really stood out – you can tell he genuinely cares about the guest experience. We left feeling really looked after and already talking about coming back. Highly recommend. We will be back!

WINE TASTING cannot be missed

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 4 weeks ago

We met Michael (resort sommelier) when dining on Thursday night at their amazing East restaurant (dined there twice due to the impeccable service and sushi / Asian cuisine quality). He was super knowledgeable about wine and recommended an “orange wine” to pair with our dishes which was even better than the food. Michael encouraged us to try out his semi-private wine tasting which occurs every Friday in the coconut grove of the main restaurant and it was even better than the night before. Not only had Michael traveled throughout Europe, he educated us on how to taste the wine and even around the essence of the grape itself. Michael was entertaining and educational and was one of the highlights of our stay. He had a private tasting the second night but made a point to stop by our dinner table just to say hi to us and our kids (where somehow he even encouraged both boys to eat all their broccoli - a miracle by our standards) and ensured we picked out an amazing pairing wine even though he was off the clock. 10/10 would recommend the resort and every member of the staff was friendly and welcoming!

A fantastic location to enjoy the island, with amazing staff and service

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

Booked a Beach suite on the AI basis for 5 nights in March. Very impressed with the meet and greet service at the airport and private taxi transfer to Carlisle Bay. The large room was on the 2nd floor with a wonderful view directly onto the beach and ocean. The only criticism is, as mentioned in other reviews , the linen and bath towels are in need of replacement. Every member of staff is fantastic and cannot do enough for you. The AI basis includes all the restaurants and every meal was fresh and delicious. We particularly enjoyed the Jetty Grill which was adults only. An extremely relaxing stay, enjoying a beautiful part of the island.
