Beautiful beach. Good beach “toys” such as hobi cats, paddle boards, kayaks etc. Tennis courts excellent. Staff very nice and friendly and breakfast options and quality in particular is really good. I think a great place to go if you have kids as there is a family atmosphere. When we left, the place was packed with young families. A bit lacking if you want a luxury break as the property overall feels a bit tired and in need of investment. This includes the common areas as well gym and rooms. The staff are super nice but the service level would be a bit inconsistent for a more demanding traveller.

I stayed at Carlisle Bay with 7 other friends to celebrate my and one others birthdays. The staff were amazing and I would rate them 5/5. The hotel is not the typical all inclusive hotel and a bit dated. It appeared to cater to a specific group of persons as well as a specific age range.

We loved our stay. It was exactly what we were looking for. Perfect setting, intimately laid out, terrific service from pre-arrival, greeting and checking in, bar and food service, and checking out. We will be recommending to our family and friends. A great place for families, groups, singles or couples.

No where near a 5 ⭐️ resort
At best a 3.5star hotel on a beautiful beach. Maybe best suited for families who want to do water activities. We were very disappointed that this was our last stop on our romantic couples trip. What looks like “coastal chic” on the website is really outdated, refurbished decor from the 80’s. The lobby was dark and dingy, with furniture possibly from the 70’s. The koi pond had trash thrown in it. It’s fine for what it is, just please do not book thinking it is going to be a 5 star resort.
