Overview
Tucked in a lush green cove on the southern coast of Antigua, Carlisle Bay specializes in offering an atmosphere that is both sophisticated and relaxing. All of its 87 suites boast ocean views, espresso machines and floor-to-ceiling windows that lead to private balconies or terraces. However, some visitors caution that the decor is a bit dated. The resort features four restaurants, including Ottimo! (a pizzeria with a wood-burning oven) and the adults-only beachside Jetty Grill. After a late afternoon tea, guests can go to the beach with their children or drop the kiddos off at the Cool Kids Club before unwinding by the pool or in the Blue Spa's sauna. Part of The Leading Hotels of the World, the property participates in the Leaders Club loyalty program.

Critic Reviews
This cosmopolitan, boutique sister property of London's trendy One Aldwych hotel daringly eschews everything faux colonial and Creole. The monochromatic, magazine-worthy result combines cool, classy minimalism with unsnobbish warmth.
The 82 suites have a sleek contemporary look, done in whites, grays, and dark woods and outfitted with every necessity and then some (bedside fiber-optic reading lights, Gaggia espresso machines, yoga mats). The Carlisle Suites are the resort's biggest units, with three en-suite bedrooms and roomy terraces.
For tranquility, hit the 45-seat screening room, the Blue spa, or the Asian-inflected bistro. The library is a glass-and-white linen sanctuary stacked with the latest beach reads – no crushed paperbacks allowed.
