A beautiful winter weekend is ahead on St. Pete Beach ☀️ With warm daytime temperatures, sunshine, and refreshing coastal breezes, it’s the perfect time to enjoy waterfront relaxation during your stay at Sunrise Resort.
The resort is located across the street from the world-famous, white, sugary sand of St. Pete Beach. Enjoy beautiful sunrises over the bay from the eastern-facing balcony of our 800 acsf condos. AND, enjoy the nightly event of glorious sunset hues from your western-facing verandah. It is the best of both worlds twice a day, every day! All of this is offered at a fraction of the price of neighboring hotels. Stay 3 nights, 1 week, or months at a time!
The Sunrise Resort offers a spacious lounge area with a beautiful heated pool and jetted hot tub overlooking Boca Ciega Bay. For those who prefer shade, a covered gazebo is available, along with multiple lounge areas that provide a more private, relaxing experience by the water.
Guests can enjoy pickleball, tennis, and shuffleboard, with all equipment provided—no need to pack your own. There are also gas grills with tables and chairs for outdoor dining. Inside, the air is cool, the beds are luxurious, and the views are simply perfect.
Upstairs, your private balcony overlooks the pool and bay, offering magnificent sunrise views—an unforgettable way to start each morning. The full-size condo kitchen is fully stocked with modern conveniences, so all you need to bring are groceries and sunscreen. Sunrise Resort offers everything you need to relax, unplug from everyday life, and fully embrace the island lifestyle. All that’s left to do is arrive and enjoy. 🌴
St. Pete Beach is consistently ranked among the top five beaches in the United States and one of the best in the world. Stroll along the stunning shoreline, relax in the soft sugar-white sand, swim in the crystal-clear Gulf waters, fish from the shore, or collect incredible seashells. As the day winds down, grab a blanket and enjoy the breathtaking sunsets that make this area famous.
The island itself is a six-mile-long barrier island wrapping around Tampa Bay, with Sunrise Resort located right at its center. Grocery and drug stores, more than 20 beach bars with live music, locally crafted cocktails and beers, countless restaurants, and unique boutiques are all just minutes away. Prefer to stay in? Many of the area’s best restaurants offer delivery straight to your door.
For adventure seekers, nearby activities include deep-sea fishing charters (with the option to have your catch cooked locally or grill it back at Sunrise), parasailing, jet skiing, dolphin cruises, sunset cruises, boat rentals, and a variety of island excursions.
There’s no need for a car, as public transportation is abundant. The SunRunner bus stops right out front and connects St. Pete Beach to downtown St. Petersburg, with stops at Tropicana Field, cultural attractions, restaurants, shopping, and the iconic St. Petersburg Pier. A PSTA trolley connects beach communities to the north, and the FreeBee electric shuttle offers free rides anywhere on the beach. Taxis, Uber, and beach ride vans are readily available—and if you do bring a car, parking at Sunrise is free.
Downtown St. Petersburg is just minutes away and offers a vibrant cultural scene, including the Salvador Dalí Museum, Chihuly Glass Museum, James Museum, Imagine Museum, American Stage, professional baseball with the Tampa Bay Rays, waterfront dining, live music, theater, opera, and more. You truly can’t be bored here.
If you’re looking to explore beyond the island, Orlando’s theme parks are about an hour and forty-five minutes away, Busch Gardens is roughly forty-five minutes away, and Fort De Soto State Park—home to historic forts and scenic bike paths—is just fifteen minutes away.
