Parking:
Two reserved parking spaces are available directly in front of the unit (marked #169). Guests must go directly to the front gate upon arrival. Please note: the security gates will not provide entry.
Parking passes are handed out at the security gate and are currently free. Guests can speak to the attendant when they arrive, show proof of the booking and they will give them a mirror hanger pass with the dates on it. If they arrive after hours or the security gate is not occupied, they can request one from the security guard the next day. Parking passes need to be displayed at all times. There is limited overflow parking, which can be purchased from the front gate security attendants for $10 per night.
No parking on the grass or double parking on the street. If you have an additional vehicle, there are three paid public parking lots to choose from: 1) Richard Jackson Boulevard at Ocean Towers Condominiums; 2) Churchwell Drive at Front Beach Road, or 3) Thomas Drive at Ripley’s.
All street-legal golf carts are prohibited on resort property. However, just outside the pedestrian gate on Front Beach Road, there is a rental place and if you rented a cart from them for consecutive days, you could park it at their location, which is an easy walk into the complex and back to the unit.
Trailer Parking: The only parking lot that will allow trailers is the Thomas Drive parking lot located at 9941 Thomas Drive (behind the Ripley’s Believe it or not). Trailers can be parked at this location. Please note: there is no onsite security. You’ll need to download the app for passportparking or go to the passportparking website to pay the parking fees (based on the license plate of the trailer).
