Oceanside limits STR maximum occupancy to 14 people per dwelling unit with a maximum of 5 bedrooms. Occupancy limits must be posted in the rental unit and communicated to guests before booking.
Under Oceanside's STR regulations, the maximum occupancy for any dwelling unit is 14 people, and STRs are limited to a maximum of 5 bedrooms. Occupancy is calculated based on the number of permitted bedrooms and fire code capacity. Operators must post occupancy limits prominently within the rental unit and communicate them to guests before confirming bookings. Exceeding occupancy limits — including gathering additional guests beyond the overnight limit during daytime hours — may be grounds for enforcement action. The STR permit specifies the maximum allowed occupancy.
Exceeding occupancy limits is a permit violation. Repeated overcrowding may result in permit suspension or revocation.
