Sunburst Motel – Seaside Heights, NJ Rated #1 Motel in Seaside Heights – Now Offered for Sale. After 42 successful years of ownership, it is finally time to retire and pass along one of Seaside Heights’ top-rated hospitality properties. Sunburst Motel I features 21 guest units plus a spacious 2-bedroom owner/manager apartment. Ideally located just 1 block from the beach and boardwalk and only 2 blocks from Casino Pier and Breakwater Beach Waterpark, this property sits in one of the most desirable tourism corridors in town. Opportunities like this are rare — especially for a consistently top-rated motel with a long-standing reputation and loyal customer base.
This fully turnkey property has been meticulously maintained and updated over the years. While many motels in the area operate primarily as seasonal businesses, Sunburst has successfully evolved into a year-round income-producing property. Since COVID, the strong demand for small apartment-style accommodations has created a profitable niche market for the motel’s efficiency units, helping generate income beyond the traditional summer season. The property currently operates with a simple phone reservation system only, presenting substantial upside potential for a new owner. Expanding into online travel and booking platforms such as Booking.com, Expedia, Airbnb, and direct online reservations could significantly increase occupancy, visibility, and overall revenue. A rare chance to acquire a well-established Jersey Shore hospitality property with proven performance, strong branding, and future growth potential.
