Boutique Beach Hotel

Our Rating 8.8

Carlisle Bay, a radiant five-star haven on Antigua's southwest coast, enchants with its laid-back elegance, blending the Caribbean's powdery sands and turquoise waters with sophisticated luxury in a pristine horseshoe bay for an unforgettable island escape.

The 87 beachfront suites brim with contemporary refinement, featuring air-conditioned tranquility, flat-screen TVs, minibars, safety deposit boxes, and sleek bathrooms with showers, hairdryers, and premium toiletries. Private balconies or terraces, adorned with soft creams and natural wood tones, unveil breathtaking ocean or tropical garden views, crafting an intimate retreat for couples or adventurers. Complimentary Wi-Fi ensures seamless connection in this serene sanctuary, a proud member of The Leading Hotels of the World.

Four exceptional restaurants captivate, from Indigo on the Beach's open-air seafood and pastas to East's refined Japanese and Thai dishes, with The Jetty Grill's adults-only Caribbean fusion and Ottimo!'s poolside Italian classics. Five chic bars, including Coconut Grove's tiki-lit beachfront and the intimate Pavilion Bar, serve artisanal cocktails and fine wines, enhanced by Firepit Fridays with local singer-songwriter Arlen.

A large freeform pool, two secluded beaches, and the CARA Organic Beauty Spa's restorative treatments with yoga pavilions invite tranquility, while five tennis courts, two pickleball courts, and complimentary watersports like snorkeling and paddleboarding spark adventure. Curated private yacht charters or hikes through untouched rainforests, arranged by attentive staff, ignite Antigua's lively essence.

Nestled 40 minutes from VC Bird International Airport, 30 minutes from St. John's, and 45 minutes from Betty's Hope Sugar Plantation, Carlisle Bay offers complimentary airport meet-and-greet, parking, and effortless access to Antigua's coastal treasures. This inviting haven weaves sophisticated luxury with the vibrant pulse of the Caribbean's island heart.
