Hollywood, FL Short-Term Rentals: Noise Rules (2026)

35(A)(3) requires the single-page notice posted near the main entrance to include a statement advising occupants that noise volume at the vacation rental is limited by the City Noise Ordinance, and requires a noise level detection device to be installed in every vacation rental to alert the owner or representative and the tenant. 35(C) separately requires a posted notice in the backyard and/or pool area stating that unreasonably loud noise is prohibited, that the City's Noise Ordinance must be fully complied with, and that the property is monitored by a noise level detection device.

11(B)(13) folds this into the licensing process itself: the application must include acknowledgment that the unit will carry noise detection devices covering both the main interior gathering area and the main outdoor gathering areas, including patios and pools, and that all data the devices produce is retained for 180 days and made available to the city on request. 34 further ties occupancy limits to nuisance control, stating that the responsible party and all occupants must abide by all applicable state and local public nuisance laws while the property is rented.
