My family and I had the best time during our stay at Sunburst Inn!! The Penthouse was amazing and there were so many amenities available to us. My daughters loved being able to use the paddle boards and we loved that chairs and umbrellas were available for use as well!! I would definitely stay again! The sunset views were amazing!!

Adorable, great location. Charming old florida hotel. Nice lesser crowded beach town. Very responsive to emails and calling to check in with us prior to arrival to tell us what to expect. Would highly recommend for a taste of old florida. Lots to do nearby, Tampa, Dunedin etc.

I really enjoyed my stay. They were so very accommodating. I had 22 people to house for my moms celebration of life. I could not ask for a better place to stay. It was beautiful and friendly. Close to the beautiful beach and places to eat. I will be returning and hopefully soon. My only regret is that mom was not physically with us. I am sure she was watching from above. Thank you Andi. Also Jason was the best host.

8/10

Overall I would give our experience a 8 out of 10. Ownership was awesome and friendly. You do get a great beach a great view too. Cons would be parking is a little tight but manageable. Back sliding door does not lock. Bar across the street is loud with music so my little one was hard to go to sleep and neighbors at inn were a little loud at night. Not the ownerships fault on that. Needs a pizza cutter and dish soap.the people who did the construction left a mess with sprayed Sheetrock mud and some stuff like that not deep cleaned. Some boards on deck loose and toe busters. We clean before we leave and did our best with what we got. Would love to see the penthouse lower deck be blocked off from everybody else. Price wasn’t horrible. So far best beach I’ve seen in Florida and we have been all over. Not being picky but for 600.00 a night I expect a little more quality control.

This is our second visit to Sunburst Inn in 2 months! We love it here. The Penthouse is perfection. Loved watching the amazing sunset from our private balcony! Clean, well appointed bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen and living space. Beach is so relaxing and not crowded at all. We definitely will be back!
