I had my wedding here at the ballroom with the ceremony in the garden. The wedding itself deserves its own review, but this is for the suite we stayed in on the night of the wedding. The groom and 3 groomsmen got ready in the room before the wedding, and because of this, I found that there weren't enough towels... More

This hotel is a hot spot during the weekend. Things to expect: a lot of people at the beach and at the beach bar. It is loud and many people are intoxicated. I am past my party years, so we did not stay on the property much during the weekend. However, we were prepared for the weekend madness, so it... More

St, We apologize you had a less than favorable experience for your first anniversary. We do have a "one warning only" policy in place, enforced by Security, before troublemakers are evicted from property. Please consider us again if your travels bring you back to Tampa Bay again in the future. More

It's more a spring break party place!!! Walls are paper thin and there was roaches. Was really disappointed. Brochure shows it cleaner / nicer then it really is. Staff was nice but the food and the drinks was expensive and the food is not that great.

I stayed there in 2012 and again in 2013. I love the idea of preserving an old style "motor inn", but other factors let us down. Some of the good points: great staff, pool, bedding, cool decor! It is a beautiful location...right on the beach. Bad points: A/C is controlled by the front desk, OVERPRICED tiki-bar, no real refrigerator in... More

I found this site online and was very excited to book there because it looks like a fun place and the price was reasonable. However, when I went to book the room for Saturday and Sunday, it suddenly doubled in price, from $99 to $199. Now, if this were the middle of season, this would be understandable. However, it's the... More

Adam, Sorry for the confusion, however there is no scam. Rates fluctuate depending on occupancy levels and, usually, certain nights during the week. Friday & Saturday rates will typically be higher than any other night simply because those nights are when occupancy is higher. If you're sensitive to higher pricing then I might recommend a stay on Monday - Thursday... More

The Postcard Inn does a great job of showcasing this property virtually. They nailed the lobby design along with the restaurant. All goes quickly downhill from there however. First off the staff seemed irritable and unfriendly. Our first room was relatively nice until we noticed a 6 inch plus long drain clogged which was nicely layed out on the tub... More

We went to the Postcard for my Bachelorette party last weekend. Although the Postcard is literally on the beach, which was the best part, we had an awful experience. Where do I start.

Absolutely love this place! Great for romantic getaways, weddings, family reunions, or even a quick staycation! Wonderful accommodations, awesome pool, a snack shack on the beach plus a full-service restaurant - what more could you want?

We loved our stay at the PCI. It's such a "family" feel with the rooms all circling the courtyard. The pool is large with a lot of chairs available for laying out. The beach bar/beach was my favorite part. It was gorgeous, and we had a great stay.
