Facility Overview
The LAZ Parking facility located at 110 Ocean Ave, Long Branch, NJ 07740, serves as the primary parking solution for the Wave Resort and the bustling Pier Village district. This location operates primarily as a valet-managed parking service, ensuring a seamless arrival experience for guests and visitors in the heart of the Jersey Shore's premier oceanfront destination. Please note that this is not a standard self-park public garage; it is a high-demand, high-touch facility. Because it operates within a high-density, luxury-focused environment, oversize vehicles are generally not accommodated, and in-and-out privileges are restricted to ensure optimal flow for event and resort traffic.
