The hotel is great I would rate it 5/5 the prices are great. The wifi apparently suffers, the parking is great. The manager is fun and accommodating. The manager was able to assist a friend and get them in even after closing! If you need a place to stay and on a budget this is the place to go. The rooms are a bit dated but it has everything you need to sleep peacefully. Again budget friendly so you cant expect it to be super high end but really worth it in my opinion.

Comfortable and convenient for me. A bit old and dated, but better than most for the money. Would recommend you bring pillows from home though. Edit 011219: Stay two nights in room 153, while attending the Sebring Gun Show. Slept like a log, but, as previously noted, best to bring your pillow from home. Edit 092320: I am guessing this place did not survive the Covid-19 outbreak. Called yesterday for a room and the number was disconnected. Perhaps only a temporary glich?

Sunset Beach Motel is a great place to relax and get away from it all. It is very vintage, but clean. You have your own private beach, the lake is gorgeous. My family and I have been coming here for over 15 years and love it. It is like stepping back into time the rooms are not 5 star but are clean and if you need anything you just ask. Love this place. Walking distance to Publix, Bealls and Walgreens. State park just down the road, downtown Sebring is something not to miss either.

Tanya was so helpful, we will b back again. We stayed in room 152. My boyfriend and I had just finished a power washing job and was dead tired. She went the extra mile in customer service. Thank you again Tanya!
