Florida Car Condos: Luxury Garages in the Sunshine State

In this article, we’ll be looking at every car condo and luxury automobile storage facility in Florida. 

The list is broken down by region. Within each region, the list is alphabetically ordered by city. 

  • Central Florida follows the I-4 corridor from Tampa\St. Petersburg through Orlando before ending up in Daytona Beach. This also includes the Sarasota area.
  • South Florida includes anything along I-75 south of Sarasota on the West Coast and along I-95 south of Melbourne on the East Coast. 
  • North Florida & the Panhandle follows I-10 from Jacksonville to Pensacola. 

A few Florida car condo facilities don’t fit neatly into these categories. 

For example, I’ve included The Villages and Sebring in the Central Florida category. For the most part, however, if you’re familiar with Florida’s geography, this will make sense. 

If you know of a Florida car condo that I’ve missed, let me know!


Central Florida Car Condos

For the most part, Central Florida Car Condos will focus on anything along the I-4 corridor between Tampa, Orlando, and Daytona Beach. To keep things simple, I’ve also included storage facilities at Sebring, next to the racetrack.

This list is sorted alphabetically by city.
