Sunrise Sea Ocean City MD Vacation Rentals
Ocean block 2-bedroom condos at 63rd Street, with a seasonal outdoor pool and room for up to 8 guests per unit. Every residence comes with two assigned parking spaces, and the beach is less than a block away.
Quick Overview
Sunrise Sea is a 40-unit ocean block condo building at 63rd Street, built in 1987 and rising four stories — roughly 10 units per floor, mid-sized for Midtown, with an elevato. Every unit runs 2 bedrooms and fits up to 8 guests, suited to a small family or two couples traveling together, without the density of the area's larger high-rises.
Units here run larger than the typical high-rise — 996 square feet on average, compared to the 750-850 square feet you'll find in most of Midtown's towers. The outdoor pool sits elevated off the second floor for privacy from the street. The beach is less than a block away, with Dead Freddie's, Annabelle's, and Longboard Cafe all within a few blocks, and the free 64th Street Boat Ramp nearby for boating and fishing. Central Reservations doesn't keep an office inside the building, but the team's main Coastal Highway office at 62nd Street sits right next door — close enough that check-in works about the same as if the office were on site. Each unit gets two assigned parking spaces, and some units offer keyless entry, eliminating the need to stop next door to pick up keys.

Sunrise Sea Amenities and Features
About the Building
Sunrise Sea went up in 1987, sized to sit between Midtown's small walk-up buildings and its high-rise towers — 40 units, four residential floors, and an elevator serving all of them. The unit sizes make the case better than any brochure could: at 996 square feet, a 2-bedroom here beats even the 2-bedroom-with-den layout at some of the popular oceanfront high-rises.
The building's other standout move is where it put the pool — elevated off the second floor rather than at ground level, which keeps it out of view from the street and gives guests a real sense of privacy without needing to be a high-rise with everything. It's a small design choice, but one that adds up to a building that feels more intentional than its size would suggest.

Where Is Sunrise Sea in Ocean City?

Is Sunrise Sea Right for You?
Sunrise Sea Is Best For
- A small family or two couples traveling together — every unit here runs 2 bedrooms.
- Guests who want elevator access to every floor, not just a walk-up building.
- Anyone who wants beach access without paying oceanfront rates — the sand is less than a block away.
- Groups bringing two vehicles, since every unit comes with two assigned parking spaces.
- Guests who want quick access to Route 90 for day trips north or out of town.
May Not Be the Best Fit If
- Anyone traveling with a pet — Sunrise Sea doesn't allow them.
- Larger groups needing a 3-bedroom or bigger unit — every unit here is 2 bedrooms.
- Guests set on being directly oceanfront — Sunrise Sea is one block back from the beach.
- Anyone expecting a fitness center or indoor pool — Sunrise Sea doesn't have either.
Our Local Insights on Sunrise Sea
Booking Timing
Peak weeks at Sunrise Sea start booking up in spring. Shorter stays and less in-demand weeks have more room to breathe, often still available into June.
View Orientation
All units face south with an ocean view, though the second floor doesn't get much of one — floors three and up see noticeably more. Worth knowing: Sunrise Sea is called a 4-story building because it has 4 residential floors, but it rises 5 stories from the ground, since the first level is under-building parking.
Rainy Day Advantage
The elevator makes it easy to head out no matter the weather. Old Pro Golf's indoor Undersea Adventure course, a short drive north at 68th Street, is open year-round rain or shine, and Dead Freddie's and Longboard Cafe are both a few blocks away if you'd rather sit down for a meal.
Location Tip
Central Reservations' Coastal Highway office sits right next door, directly across from the Route 90 bridge — which makes 63rd Street a genuinely central home base for reaching either downtown or North Ocean City.
