Hello Winter Park, FL Hosts-
We’ve been hosting in Winter Park for about a year and have just recently received a notice from the city saying we need to shut down our short-term rental. City rules require we change our listing to a 27-day minimum rental, which we just did in order to comply and not get fined. However, we are looking to fight this.
has anyone else received this notice and had success in appealing to the city?
I called the city and they said this notice wasn’t just sent to us, but they’re cracking down and sending it to every host in Winter Park.
I would love to get a group of us together to appeal to the city commissioners to meet us in the middle somewhere.

You are brave and we all stand behind you in this cause. Thank you for fighting for the neighborhood rights 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Any updates on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Hey I had to take down my Airbnb, they didn’t even give me a choice. However I do have a Karen in my neighborhood that hates me. If 27 days is requirement to keep it up then I’ll start again.
Surely you checked with your local government to see if there were STR restrictions you needed to meet, in order to set up your STR business @Jalal25
You can't blame someone else if you chose not to comply with local STR regulations and have been asked to stop hosting as a result.
In general it's always better to get neighbours on board, it makes things much easier for all parties concerned.
I know this post is a few years old but while traveling, now, I received an email from the city stating that I was in violation of the short-term rental having my property listed for 28 days. The message stated that I had a final inspection and was found in violation. I had the person who has been checking my mail go by and a letter had been sent stating that my property needed to be listed for 30 days or more. This is a change from the previous messages I had received.
I have sent a message to the city requesting when the change to 30 days or more was made as the bylaws State for one month or more and I was told that since February was the shortest month it was 28 days or more. Has anyone else received any letters or emails regarding this? September 2024.
