Short-term rentals (STRs), often referred to as transient lodging, are not permitted within residential zoning districts in Ormond Beach, Florida. These rentals are defined as stays of less than six months, and the city allows STRs only in specific commercial zoning districts (B-4, B-6, and B-7), which can accommodate such uses but require a local business tax and compliance with state regulations. The market for STRs here mainly caters to tourists, tapping into the area's coastal appeal, particularly in properties located east of State Road A1A. However, long-term rentals of more than six months are permitted in all residential zones without a business license. The presence of local attractions encourages tourist bookings primarily, though the area also attracts some business travelers. The City of Ormond Beach's Site Plan Review Committee is the governing authority for overseeing these regulations. For more information, visit the official site:.
