History

Sunrise Ocean Suites was established in 1969. It was initially an old Howard Johnson's hotel. Frequent visitors bought a land lease then repurposed the rooms to be apartments. The original owner's children now own the property. The rooms are split between each of them, and they lease them out separately. Ella, the manager, started working at Sunrise Ocean Suites nine years ago. She has since redone the entire website and social media platforms. The property is continually being improved with added amenities and features.
