No Port St. Lucie ordinance sets a short-term-rental occupancy limit. Florida law (Fla. Stat. 509.032(7)(b)) bars local governments from prohibiting vacation rentals or regulating the duration or frequency of rentals, and the city has not adopted occupancy-based STR rules.
Under Fla. Stat. 509.032(7)(b), a local law, ordinance, or regulation may not prohibit vacation rentals or regulate the duration or frequency of rental of vacation rentals (except ordinances adopted on or before June 1, 2011). Port St. Lucie has not adopted any pre-2011 vacation-rental ordinance and imposes no per-bedroom or per-guest occupancy cap specific to short-term rentals. General building, fire, and life-safety occupancy standards still apply, and DBPR balcony/occupancy and safety inspections govern licensed vacation rentals at the state level. HOA or deed-restriction limits, where they exist, are enforced privately and are not city ordinances.
No city occupancy penalty exists; exceeding building/fire code occupancy can be enforced under the Florida Building Code and Fire Prevention Code, and state license conditions are enforced by DBPR.
