Marriott International recently announced its acquisition of the Postcard Cabins brand, formerly known as Getaway. Postcard Cabins was built in 2015 to bring the experience of finding free time in nature to more people. The goal is to slow down, unplug and embrace the great outdoors, and, since its inception, guests have spent more than 40 million hours immersed in nature at Postcard Cabins’ more than 1,200 cabins across 29 Outposts — all within three hours of major cities. Join that growing number next time you embark on family travel.

 

“In joining Marriott, we’re excited to bring the Postcard Cabins experience to a global audience seeking exactly what we offer—a place to slow down, disconnect from the everyday and invest in the relationships that matter most. What started a decade ago with a small group of believers in the power of spending free time in nature, has grown into a national movement, which we expect will only gather steam with Marriott’s expansive reach,” said Jon Staff, founder and CEO, Postcard Cabins.

 

By joining Marriott’s portfolio, Postcard Cabins can introduce its unique offering to a global audience and leverage Marriott’s resources and its Marriott Bonvoy platform, boasting more than 219 million members worldwide. The Postcard Cabins portfolio will likely be part of the hospitality giant’s planned outdoor-focused collection. The full integration, including on marriott.com and the Marriott Bonvoy mobile app, is expected for completion in 2025.

 

“Marriott has long been committed to offering incredible travel experiences for every trip purpose. As guests are increasingly interested in nature-immersive travel, we are excited to build on the incredible breadth of our portfolio and welcome Postcard Cabins to Marriott Bonvoy as we deliver more accommodations and experiences in awe-inspiring destinations,” said Leeny Oberg, chief financial officer and executive vice president, development, Marriott International.

Visit an Old-Fashioned County Fair in Maine

Celebrate autumn with a family trip to a traditional New England county fair. These annual celebrations of agriculture and country life are filled with sights and activities for the whole family to enjoy, from admiring prize pumpkins and meeting live animals to witnessing horse shows, listening to country music and dancing, and doing craft demonstrations. Most fairs also have carnival rides and hands-on activities for kids.

Best of Both Worlds

Enjoy the best of both worlds when you fly with TAP Air Portugal thanks to the Portugal Stopover program.
