“NEVER STAY here the service is the WORST!!!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 September 2011

person found this review helpful

My first visit to Tobago was ruined on my arrival by the front desk person at Sunshine .... Anna. She was soooo rude, dishonest, not at all accommodating and speaks to people as if they are animals. She clearly should not be in the hospitality industry as she doesn't even have a shred of courtesy far less manners.

It is evident that "Anna" clearly thought she was doing my team and I a huge favor by checking us in despite we were paying guests. Her unwelcome and inhospitable reception had tainted our entire stay there!

Whilst the location is very convenient, the rooms were ok taking into consideration we were only there to sleep since we were out all day. The horrid service overshadowed anything positive that we could have possibly noted about the place other than its location.

We have requested that our company never use Sunshine Apartments ever again and I'll be sure to let everyone I know to never stay at Sunshine due to this person's animal behavior. Tobago boasts of its warm and friendly people but they obviously haven't met the staff at Sunshine!!

I later stayed at a guest house called VIP with some family and whilst it is not Hilton the staff was most accommodating and I must say the service was above par! The guy picked us up at the port, drove us around and gave us a little tour, he let us check in earlier at not extra cost, on the evening we were leaving he just charged us $50 to stay a few hours later and even dropped us off to catch the boat!! Rooms were equipped with everything down to matches!! Now that is what I call not only value for your money but excellent service. Furthermore the price was half of what Sunshine charges!

“Best Tobago vacation ever!”

A million thanks to Bernadette & Anna for a truly wonderful experience! From the initial booking to the welcome to the accommodation was fantastic. Located on the main road and a five minute drive from the airport with a huge "sunshine" sign that you can't miss. Close proximity all amenities-beaches, supermarket, gas station, eatery services and even a hardware (yes I needed to visit a hardware). We stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment - air conditioned with fridge and microwave. Spacious kitchen with a living and dining room area. Adult and kiddie pool my son had a blast. Any assistance needed Anna and Bernadette was right there. I cannot say thank you enough. Can't wait to return.

Room Tip: The apartments are located on 2 floors so you can request a room on the ground floor if you're t...

“Great first time experience”

I have been to Tobago many times with my family and stayed at different resorts, this was my first time at Sunshine. From my inquiry prior to booking, the dialogue was very friendly and helpful as I dealt with Anna. I informed Anna that I will be arriving in Tobago way before check-in at 2pm, she said once the room was ready before she will contact me, as was done, and I was able to check in "early". I stayed in one of the studio apts. with my wife and two children. The room was very clean and had all the amenities needed. Linens were changed regularly and the room cleaned. The people were very friendly and the grounds were well maintained. I will surely stay here again.

“We loved it and we'll be back!”

I must say that i was impressed from the very beginning, the warm welcome the early check-in (11 am instead of the alloted time of 2 pm) and the owner/Manager went out of their way to make our stay very comfortable. Thank you Bernadette and Anna for going the extra mile and for the wonderful surprise in our room on the night of my daughter's birthday. This was the perfect location as it was on the main road, close to the beaches, bakery, grocery, Airport etc.
We loved everything about our stay, we had no regrets!
It is truly everything that was advertised and more.

Room Tip: The room was clean and the beds were very comfortable!

“Born- again aparrtments”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 April 2010

Yes I am a born -again apartments having stayed at Jimmy's over the pass couple of years with my family. I got quite fed-up of them raising their rates by a hundred dollars every year and so I had to find another place. I saw sunshine apartments advertised in the catholic news and gave them a call . Bernadette gave me a great price for the room for easter and so I booked it.
My family of four arrived on march 29th and was amazed at this oasis in the bustle of Buccoo main road. The grounds were very relaxing and quiet and I couldn't wait to see our room.
Anna was our hostess and this lady really IS a hostess. She will make your stay at these apartments very comfortable . Soon she will not be a hostess but a friend.
The apartment was ready for us and on entering I realize the attention to detail on making this apartment more like Hilton or Grafton. The colour decor was tropical, the floor tiled and the beds very soft and cozy. The Kitchen has corelle plates and cups ( not just any old glass plates like other places), nice microwave and a fridge the same height as me( five feet). Little soap bars were in the bathroom and fresh fluffy towels. This is what you will get at a posh five star hotel . Our dining table had a linen table cloth not plastic . The pool was a great hit with our children ( 8 and 10 years old) and made friends with the our kids staying here.
Location is great when you have a car brought in with the ferry from Trinidad. Car rentals here are crazy especially in eastertime.
I am without a doubt go there every year from now on. My children will be very excited when I tell them we are going SUNSHINE HOLIDAY APARTMENTS.
