Luxury resort Carlisle Bay in Antigua, will reopen for the upcoming Caribbean season on October 10.
Following a six-month closure due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the boutique all-suite resort returns with a raft of new measures to help keep guests safe.
Taroon Missry, general manager of Carlisle Bay said: ?We have given a lot of thought to our reopening strategy to ensure the safety of our teams and guests without removing the West Indian charm that makes a stay with us so special. Our space and size mean we are well positioned to deal with this current climate. We will be offering guests private transfers and VIP service through the airport on arrival. Our team will be wearing PPE and for now our staff will be taking special care of guests from a distance. Guests will also notice enhanced cleaning and sanitation stations across the resort.?
The down time has also been used to create a selection of enhancements and new and inspired experiences, these include:
Carlisle Bay has expanded its state-of-the-art fitness facilities to include a new outdoor gym area. New fitness classes include socially distanced beachfront Pilates, kayak tours and private hiking tours.
The Blue Spa experience continues to focus on natural and holistic treatments by Cara Organic Beauty in partnership with ESPA but with a new outdoor spa programme also on offer. Taking place on a private jetty next to the sea, these allow guests to switch off amid the fresh air and the evocative sound escape of the Caribbean. The spa has also introduced a new immune boosting experience from ESPA.
