Night Caps: Hialeah vs Miami

Is there a limit on how many nights I can rent my Hialeah property short-term?

No. Neither Hialeah nor Miami-Dade County imposes an annual night cap. Florida Statute 509.032(7)(b) preempts cities from regulating the duration or frequency of vacation rental stays unless the ordinance predates June 1, 2011.

Are there any time-based STR restrictions in Hialeah?

Stays of 30 days or longer fall outside the short-term rental definition entirely. Estate and Low-Density Residential zones require the responsible party to reside on the property for more than 6 months per year, which functionally limits how it can be operated.

Does Miami limit how many nights per year I can rent on Airbnb?

No. The City of Miami does not impose an annual night cap. Florida Statute 509.032(7)(b) preempts cities from regulating short-term rental duration or frequency through ordinances adopted after June 1, 2011.

Is there a minimum stay requirement in Miami?

The City of Miami does not impose a minimum stay through Miami 21. However, individual condo associations and HOAs commonly require 7-day, 30-day, or longer minimum rentals, and those private rules are independently enforceable.

Could Miami add a night cap in the future?

No, unless state law changes. Cities that did not have a duration or frequency restriction on the books by June 1, 2011 are preempted by FS 509.032(7)(b) from adding new caps.
