Timothy Monger of AllMusic gave the EP three-out-of-five stars, stating that Sunburn Mixtape "hits its mark well enough, providing a smooth soundtrack for beachside cerveza-sipping."[1] Country Central called a lot of the songs on the EP filler and disappointing, but praised Westmore's ability to go "full-on pop" without losing his aesthetic and integrity.[2] In a more positive review, Pip Ellwood-Hughes of Entertainment Focus described the songs as "tight, expertly crafted, and geared towards radio".[3]
Sputnikmusic gave the album a 0.5 out of five, stating that mainstream country music has declined greatly since the 2010's "bro-country era".[4]
