Islip does not impose a town-wide minimum-night cap, but Chapter 52 rental permits distinguish short-term (under 30 days) from longer-term rentals and some Fire Island villages within or adjacent to Islip set weekly-only rental minimums during peak season.
Town of Islip itself permits short-term rentals of any length provided a valid rental permit is in effect. However, incorporated Fire Island villages such as Ocean Beach have historically required week-long (Saturday-to-Saturday) minimums during summer season, and homeowner associations in Davis Park, Ocean Bay Park, and similar FIPOA communities frequently restrict sub-weekly rentals by covenant. Owners must check both town and village rules plus any HOA/co-op restrictions before listing.
