Sunburst Inn is located right in the sand of Indian Shores, directly ON the beach. It’s been listed as one of the most beautiful beaches in the country, and we agree! There are many mom-and-pop style restaurants, shops, cafes, and eateries along Gulf Blvd and the surrounding areas. We’re also right next door to Indian Rocks Beach!
When time/staffing permits, SBI offers in-house laundry service (wash, dry, fold). Ask a team member for a laundry bag, fill it up, and bring it to the office. Cost is $35 per bag. The Penthouse has a washer and dryer in the apartment.
If you’re interested in a private boat tour/ sunset tour please let us know so we can help coordinate for you. Also, we recommend Island Marine Rentals. We also offer access to free paddle boards to all guests!
We do not have a gym on premises, but we have partnered with IRB CrossFit to offer our guests the opportunity to workout while on vacation. Contact irbcrossfit.com and tell them you are an SBI guest for 25% off your workout!

One parking spot per reservation. Make sure to put your parking pass on display on your dashboard. Additional cars can park at the Municipal Building at 19305 Gulf Boulevard.
Yes, we have free high-speed Wi-Fi in each room.
We are waterfront and have the world’s largest and most beautiful pool just steps from your front door….the Gulf of Mexico, but it is not chlorinated 🙂
We welcome everyone, including kids to Sunburst Inn. We are happy to provide a pack and play for babies, available upon request for the little ones (first-come-first-serve). Just call us to arrange.
We would LOVE to host your small event at Sunburst Inn. We welcome intimate weddings, corporate retreats, family reunions, and girls’ get-aways to name a few. Rooms blocks are available so you have the entire inn to yourselves. We can set up catering and are happy to help with special requests.
Because our property is 75 years old, building codes back then were not up to today’s standards. However, some of our rooms on the first floor are more spacious and much more accessible. If you have any mobility concerns, please call us so we can chat more to see how we can be of service.
We are proud to be a non-smoking beachfront inn. No smoking is permitted anywhere on SBI grounds. If you smoke in your room, a $750 fine will be charged plus replacement of any affected furniture
We process the entire payment for your booking at the time of reservation. We do not hold rooms for guests and require payment upfront due to high demand and cancellations.
Full refund for cancellations up to 30 days before check-in. If booked fewer than 30 days before check-in, full refund for cancellations made within 48 hours of booking and at least 14 days before check-in. After that, 50% refund up to 7 days before check-in. No refund after that. Please be advised that all cancellations will require a 4% processing fee.
We do not make exceptions to our refund policy for any reason, including weather, illness, or other circumstance that interrupts your travel (whether it is within your control or not), and do not accept date changes. So, we always suggest that guests purchase travel insurance for their trip, just in case! This is particularly important from June-November, as weather events in the southeast are considered known travel risks and not eligible for an exception
We offer specials promotions throughout the season. Make sure you sign up for our e-mail newsletter below to find out when they will be available. Also, make sure to follow us on Instagram at @sunburst Inn
