The Bond Suite

The Bond suite is a privately owned three double bedroom all en suite first floor apartment. It is situated in the middle of the exquisite Carlisle Bay Hotel right on the beach that's accessible by private steps. Its furnished in the Antiguan minimalist style of the rest of the property. It does have a kitchen and spacious living room and large terrace with fabulous views of Montserrat through the palm trees. This property is owned by the Bond family who are always happy to enthuse about this idyll they love so much.

When Carlisle Bay opened its doors in December 2003 it introduced a new kind of contemporary luxury to Antigua. This all-suite resort is part of Campbell Gray Hotels, a collection of exclusive properties which includes London’s über-trendy One Aldwych, and the same emphasis on style and service applies here. Yet in Antigua the resort’s exotic setting also plays its part to perfection, the tranquil azure bay and ravishing white sand beach set off against a backdrop of ancient mangroves and rolling hills.

And when it comes to recreational facilities, the swimming pool, tennis courts, gymnasium, PADI dive centre and water sports are supplemented by the 17,000 sq.ft. Blue Spa offering anything from outdoor Pilates classes to mood enhancing couples massages. There are two restaurants: Indigo on the Beach an alfresco affair for health-conscious grills and freshly-caught seafood; East a stylish indoor venue specialising in pan-Asian cuisine. Other innovative ‘wow factors’ include a screening room for daily movies and a stunning library offering the latest beach reads. At Carlisle Bay nothing has been left to chance.
