A house split into three apartments, with an outdoor pool and barbecue area, the house is fully equipped and provides everything you need for a home away from home.

We booked the smaller of the three apartments yet this still had a large living room and kitchen. Everything was very clean and in good working order.

Owner Jan is on call for any questions and proved very helpful.

Location is good, 600m walk from the centre of Speightstown.

My husband and I along with our two mothers stayed at the Sungold House for four memorable days in March 2015. Our whole experience from booking to the end of our stay was nothing but excellent. Jan, the owner and her whole family and crew are all amazing! We rented a vehicle from her as well, thus Darius picked us up at the airport and took us directly to this amazing house in Speightstown. Once we got to the house, Krystal (Jan's daughter) was there to great us. She had snacks and refreshments for us after our long trip and even had bread and juice for our next morning's breakfast. She kindly showed us around the house and answered any questions we had. She also gave us an "run" of what the highlights of the Island were and offered her assistance in any bookings or reservations we wanted to make. We immediately felt at home. Darius then took us downtown to Speighstown to allow us to pick up a few groceries and to show us around (restaurants, stores, beach). The house was very well equipped with all the amenities one could want/need. The Wi-Fi was great as was the television (but we never watched it). Everything was clean and fresh. Ann the housekeeper did a great job! The pool was very refreshing and welcoming after a day at the beach or as a morning dip. The outdoor seating area was a real bonus for the morning coffee and the evening star gazing. The location of the house was within walking distance to a very nice, quiet beach and even to town for restaurants and groceries. Just to give you all an idea on how delightful these hosts are....Jan (the owner) baked us a Bajan dish called Macaroni Pie. She left it in a casserole at the door while we were out on our second day. It was delicious, THANKS JAN! Then, she invited our family for Easter diner at her place as we were still on the island for Easter (at another location). We did attend, we would not have missed it for the world! She and her whole family along with other guests staying at the house all attended the Diner. What a treat! I can not say enough about how satisfied we are and how many memories we have made at Sungold House! I can't wait to come again!!! Anyone considering booking....DO IT!

My husband and I and our two elderly Mums were delighted with the warm welcome Jan and Gary greeted us with. The three bedroom apartment was extremely spacious and beautifully furnished. It was just five minutes walk to the most gorgeous beach and ten minutes to the town. The local supermarkets were happy to run us home with the shopping. The pool was very welcome when we stopped at home for a sunbathe. Jan was the perfect host, she sorted a wheelchair for us when my Mum struggled to walk due to an old injury, she also cooked a most delicious authentic meal for us and made us feel nothing was too much trouble, she just wanted to ensure we had a great time. The high quality air conditioning in the bedrooms was very welcome as was the excellent cleaning service Nancy provided. I am sure we will return.

This is by far the best guest house I've ever stayed in! Its not just the beautiful layout of the apartment, or the lovely surroundings and neighbourhood, or even the proximity to a wonderful beach. No, the best part is Ms. Skeete. She made sure that we were well catered for from our arrival at the airport to our departure. She made it literally feel like a home away from home. I believe that I would adopt her as my mum the next time i go there

Where to start. Janlyn and Gary are fantastic people and a pleasure to talk to and rent from. Janlyn is a bit of a comic too. They went out of their way to accommodate us. The house is a short walk from a great beach. The beach itself was sparsely populated, perhaps 15 people within 50 yards of us, and the water was what you would expect in Barbados. The house is comfortable and roomy and there is a small pool too. We will likely return here.

Having stayed in many holiday lets on Barbados I must admit this one is the best ever.
We initially stayed in the one bedroom apartment and Jan upgraded us when the two bedroom one was available. The apartments and pool are immaculately clean, the
furnishings are beautiful. Excellent TV channels showing latest movies etc and WIFI . There are sun loungers outside round the pool and tables and chairs. The
house is so relaxing and peaceful yet only minutes from the beach and the town.
Jan and Gary did everything possible to make us feel totally spoilt even picking us up
and taking us to a family party at their home. Lovely people we will definitely be going
back later in the year. I cannot thank Jan and family enough. This place is a little gem.

As a frequent flyer to the island and a regular at Sungold House, yet again the pleasure of booking a stay here was the first part of my experience. Although i travelled solo on this occasion, Sungold House caters for couples and families. The rooms have always been clean and welcoming, with a cleaner attending during the week to do the necessary.

Jan, Gary and the family have continually been attentive in all aspects of my stay. Staying in the Hibiscus apartments has its own rewards. Having breakfast on the balcony, relaxing and looking at the glorious views are wonderful.
I could never get tired of doing this... Also watching the sunset from this view is amazing. Jan even arranged a surprise birthday breakfast for me which was a special touch and we even celebrated together at Vic's Bar in Paynes Bay...
These are what I refer to as SPECIAL TOUCHES.

Being only a short walk to Speightstown where you'll find shops of all descriptions and banks and in addition Port St Charles is also nearby if you wish to see more within the parish of St Peter. Although Sungold House comes with its own external lounge area and a small pool for that gentle 'dip' , if you feel the need to head for the local beach the nearest beach is Haywards Beach which is a 'stones throw' away. Lovely sands and warm waters will put smiles of your face at all times..
Totally delightful.

For any budding soccer fans, there is a flood lit soccer ground nearby to watch local teams compete against each other. I've watched several matches and have been thoroughly entertained, especially when you hear the running commentary.

I will be returning in the new year and will be booking my accommodation at Sungold House..
