Eastvale, CA Short-Term Rentals: Night Caps (2026)

Cities that allow short-term rentals sometimes limit how many nights per year a property may be rented, especially for non-hosted whole-house rentals (for example, 90 or 120 nights annually). Eastvale uses no night cap because it does not permit short-term rentals at all; the effective limit is zero nights. The City states that short-term rentals, defined as renting a property for less than 30 days, cannot be operated within city limits, so there is no permitted STR to which an annual night allowance could apply. We found no night-cap provision for short-term rentals in the Eastvale Municipal Code and will not invent one. The dividing line in Eastvale is duration: a rental of 30 consecutive days or more is a long-term tenancy that the City allows and that is subject to its rental registration program (EMC Chapter 110.32), while any rental of less than 30 days is short-term and prohibited. This is a use prohibition, not a frequency cap, so there is no concept of running out of allowed nights or staying under a threshold; a single night of short-term rental is already an unpermitted use. Owners who want to rent legally must structure the rental as a 30-plus-day tenancy.
