Default Key West covered parking?

My wife and I are planning to take a road trip down to Key West over the holidays this year and I'd like to plan ahead to make sure my precious ride is protected while I'm there. It looks like there is at least one covered public garage to park in, but I'd prefer onsite covered parking at the hotel/resort.

Has anyone stayed in Key West with their C7 and found a good place to park? Ideally this would be coupled with a good hotel/resort recommendation

Thanks!

It depends where in Key West you are staying. The only covered garages I know are:

1. Old Town Garage (public parking). This is fine if you are staying at the Albury Court or somewhere there.

2. The Waldorf Simonton Street. But you have to be staying at the hotel.

Bottom line, I have driven my Vettes to Key West. I would be more concerned that you are parking near your hotel than to be taking a cab to get your car!!

Most hotels have pretty good parking lots. Enjoy the drive with the top down. I will be in the Keys tomorrow!!

Great information- thank you! If anyone else has any hotel recommendations or VRBO house rental recommendations, I'd really appreciate it.
