History
Sunza Station opened on 6 May 1955 as a stop on the Japan National Railways Futamata Line, in present-day Hamana-ku, Hamamatsu, Shizuoka Prefecture. The line was transferred to the third-sector Tenryu Hamanako Railroad on 15 March 1987, and the station became part of the new Tenryu Hamanako Line. It lies 49.4 kilometres from the line terminus at Kakegawa Station. The station has a single side platform built on a slope facing Lake Hamana, with no station building - only a small platform-level rain shelter facing the lake. It remains unstaffed.

Notes
Sunza has no station building - just a slope-side platform that faces directly out over Lake Hamana, used by an average of only about eighteen passengers a day in 2016.
