Menifee has not adopted an annual cap on the number of nights a property may be rented short-term. Stays are simply defined as under 30 consecutive days per Development Code §9.300.
Unlike cities such as San Francisco (90-night unhosted cap), Santa Monica (no unhosted rentals), or Palm Springs (32-contract annual cap on non-primary residences), Menifee's Municipal Code contains no annual night cap or hosted-vs-unhosted distinction for short-term rentals. The Development Code's only quantitative limit is the 30-day stay length defining the STR category. Operators may rent year-round subject to general business license, TOT remittance (10%), noise, and parking compliance. The lack of a night cap reflects Menifee's status as a recently incorporated bedroom community where STR pressure has not driven legislative caps. HOA CC&Rs in master-planned developments are the most common source of stricter limits (some Menifee HOAs prohibit STR entirely or impose minimum stay lengths above 30 days). City Council retains authority to amend the Development Code if STR impacts increase, but no pending ordinance has been published as of the latest code revisions.
No night-cap violations exist in Menifee. Violating an HOA STR restriction is a private civil matter (Civ. Code §5975) — the city does not enforce CC&Rs.
