Not having to worry about parking in the city is a major bonus. And when you're staying with us, you can chill out knowing that your ride is safe from the city's parking enforcement officers, in our parking lot!

The cost for a spot in our parking lot is $10 per day, and it's only available to Ocean Island guests. Ask the front desk staff about a parking spot when you arrive. There is no way to reserve a parking spot in advance. If we don't have any space for you, we can recommend other spots to park around the city, to save you from getting ticketed. We can also sell you parking in the Robbins Parking lot across the street from us at a rate of $10 per day. Otherwise see below for more options:

There are many other places to park in Victoria. Here are some suggestions:

Auto theft

Actual vehicles don't get stolen much in Victoria, but more and more people are having stuff stolen out of their cars. We recommend that you don't leave anything valuable or important in your vehicle! Store it in our secure storage facility (for free) instead. If you have to leave something in your car, put it in the trunk before you get in your car in the first place, and park the car in a well-lit spot on a busy street.
