Overview

Postcard Inn on the Beach lives up to its name as being a stand-out postcard-worthy beachfront hotel in St. Pete Beach. The surfer-chic décor, cool amenities, on-site dining options, and of course, the beachfront location makes the hotel a family favorite when on vacation, as well as a great gathering place for groups.

Sitting on the gorgeous white-sand beach, the surfer-chic property maintains a breezy, summer-party atmosphere all day and night. The hotel is set on busy Gulf Boulevard, within walking distance of numerous dining options. A short 20-minute drive will take guest to St. Petersburg where great shopping, touring, museums, and more restaurants are located. Families and friend groups flying into Florida will be delighted that the Tampa International Airport is only 27 miles from the hotel.

The hotel amenities are just as cool as the surroundings with a beachside tiki bar, swimming pool, fire pit, and on-site water sports rentals. The popular on-site restaurant, plus an outdoor cafe and bar with beach views, offers barbecue, burgers, and seafood dishes for lunch and dinner. Cozy beach bungalows and poolside cabanas are available for rent, and on-site Captain Mike’s organizes boat rides, waterskiing, snorkeling excursions, and more. There’s also a small gym, an outdoor ping-pong table, and plenty of space in meeting rooms.

Accommodations are funky and vibrant with unique décor and furnishings. Each room at Postcard Inn is decorated in a surfer-chic style with throwback surfboards and bright colors and no two rooms are exactly alike. In addition to the unique décor, the rooms also feature vintage lighting fixtures, plus basics like flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, and free WiFi.

Anonymous, Aug 2022
I usually travel to pci yearly and have always had an amazing trip. This year I was very underwhelmed with the condition of the room. The shower floor felt like it was going to fall in. The lights flickered and some outlets didn’t work. The bed was unusually firm which caused all 4 of our backs to hurt. Will I book here again? Likely but hoping they’ll make some necessary improvements. At $1200 fo...

Tommi, Jan 2017
Pros (+) Postcard Inn was what we were looking for in a quick getaway over the holidays. We had a king size garden view room. We were on the top 2nd level, no elevator. The main hotel entry was nicely decorated, lots of hangout places, a big table with games (my daughter loved the 3D tic TAC toe). There was also a photo booth. The Boathouse was a restaurant attached to the lobby...no room service. The gard...
Cons (-) The pool was a major reason for choosing this hotel. I wanted a heated pool as we were traveling in December. When I confirmed over the phone before booking the pool was heated; the receptionist said the pool would be closed for the first dayof our stay...however, we could use the pool at the next door hotel. The PostCard Inn pool was being filled when we arrived, so I looked forward to hanging ou...

Cons (-) It was a rip off to have an additional charge of $22.60 per day for no justifiable reason? We received no special service, nor did the resort offer any exceptional amenities? The overall experience was mediocre and I would not recommend it to my friends or family.

Pros (+) Liked the beachy/surfer "feel" of the location. I travelled in January and the weather wasn't great (windy and cold) plus there is some construction going on, mostly in the main lobby I believe. This really didn't impact my trip, as I was there for a friends wedding taking place literally just down the road. For the money and location, great value. I'd love to come back here and enjoy the pool/bea...
Cons (-) Loud people next door and above my room - or perhaps the walls are just a little thin? The room could use some new paint and a few non-essential updates.
