Henderson does not require the property owner or host to be physically present during a short-term-rental stay. Whole-home rentals are permitted under HMC Title 5 provided permitting, occupancy, and 660-foot buffer rules under SB 363 are met.
Under Henderson Municipal Code Title 5 and SB 363 (2023), Henderson allows STR operations without a host-presence mandate. Owners may rent entire dwellings to transient guests so long as a current STR business license is on file, the unit complies with the 660-foot inter-STR buffer Clark County applies regionally, and a designated local contact is reachable 24/7. The local contact must respond within 60 minutes to complaints. Henderson does not have a Los Angeles-style hosted-only home-share carve-out; whole-home and host-occupied stays are licensed under the same framework, with neighbor-impact controls handled through occupancy caps and noise rules.
Operating without a 24/7 reachable local contact, or failing to respond within 60 minutes, can trigger citation, license suspension, and escalating fines under Henderson STR enforcement.
