Hotel and Condo Short-Term Rentals Resume
Over a month ago, Miami Beach decided to place bans on hotel and condominium short-term rentals in response to the coronavirus. The city is now loosening the restrictions following the drop in South Florida positivity rates. The resuming of short-term rentals began this past weekend.
In Miami-Dade County, hotels were allowed to open their doors once again on the first of June followed closely by short-term rentals. However, last month restrictions were implemented which remained in effect until earlier this month. Unlike the rest of the county, Miami Beach was particularly aggressive, choosing to shut down all of its short-term and vacation rentals during the middle of July.
It’s worth noting that these vacation and short-term rentals are still not being allowed in apartment buildings. As for condos and hotels, day and night occupancy is relegated to a pair of persons per bedroom, plus two additional persons per unit, for a maximum of four persons. Should a family travel be traveling together, this is limited to six individuals per unit.
Should a hotel or condo be caught violating the limits regarding occupancy, Miami Beach has made it known that they may be at risk of losing their business tax receipt for as long as the emergency order remains in place.
