STR Laws by City

Yes with an STRO license — but whole-home investor rentals (Tier 3/4) are capped and effectively waitlisted.

Primary residence only — investor and second-home STRs are banned citywide.

Licensed by type; investor whole-home (Type 2) allowed in all residential zones since Feb 2025.

Owner-occupied Type 1 nearly anywhere; new investor Type 2 permits only outside most residential zones.

Owner-occupied only in residential zones, one permit per block; new commercial permits frozen since 2023.

State law bars cities from banning STRs — $250/yr license, no residence rule, no night cap.

Purpose-built tourism town — permit plus fire inspection, no residence rule, no night cap.

Legal in the tourist overlay and RMV zone; banned in other residential zones.

Banned in single-family and many multifamily districts (6-month minimum stay); legal only in certain commercial districts and three historic overlays.

City of Orlando: whole-home under 30 days is not permitted (home-share only). The 'Orlando' vacation homes are in Osceola/Kissimmee/Polk tourist zones.

No zoning restriction, no minimum stay, no certificate cap — annual fire inspection sets your legal occupancy.
