Summary
Henderson caps short-term vacation rental occupancy at four guests for the first bedroom, two per additional bedroom, up to 16 people total.
Occupancy of a short-term vacation rental is limited to four occupants for the first bedroom and two occupants per each additional bedroom as listed with the Clark County Assessor's Office as of the date of registration, up to a maximum of 16 persons.
Full Breakdown
The Development Code sets a hard headcount for every registered short-term vacation rental: four occupants for the first bedroom and two for each bedroom after that, based on the bedroom count on file with the Clark County Assessor as of registration, capped at 16 people regardless of bedroom count. The maximum must be posted on-site with the registration certificate, and a gathering that exceeds it is defined separately as a prohibited 'short-term vacation rental party.'
Violations & Fines
Exceeding the posted occupancy cap is a registration violation subject to administrative citation and daily fines under HMC Subsection 19.9.4.F.3, on top of any separate 'STR party' violation.
