Why a Marriott hotel is replacing Postcard Inn

The owners of Postcard Inn have decided to retire a brand that became synonymous with good times on St. Pete Beach. A more modern, sophisticated hotel will take its place.

Postcard Inn, unbeknownst to anyone at the time, welcomed its last overnight guests and local daytrippers in late August 2024. Hurricanes Helene and Milton subsequently decimated the area, and plans for an extensive renovation and expansion evolved.

St. Pete Country Fest at Vinoy Park this weekend

Salt Lake City-based LNE Presents is involved with more bay area music festivals, historically, than any other company. LNE and its founder, Vince Carrick, have been bringing the annual Reggae Rise Up here since 2014. That’s an estimated 60,000 people, over three days every spring, in St. Petersburg’s Vinoy Park.

(Reggae Rise Up’s 2026 event dates are March 12 through 15.)
