Airbnb in Miami Beach

Miami Beach has been ground zero in the war against Airbnb. The mayor in particular has been very vocal in his opposition against Airbnb in Miami Beach. But there are other opponents as well – the hotel and resort industry which views Airbnb as a threat.

While Airbnb is popular in Brickell, Wynwood, Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, Doral and downtown Miami, Miami Beach is the most popular location for Airbnb rentals in South Florida. In fact, it is estimated that half of the Airbnb rentals in Miami-Dade County take place in Miami Beach.

Miami Beach has imposed a $20,000 fine for a first offense for illegal short-term rentals. The city also will fine the violators the same amount for every subsequent violation. In the eight months from March-November 2016 the City of Miami Beach Code Compliance Department has issued 145 fines for a total of $4 million. Interestingly, only $65,000 of those fines have been paid. The remainder are on appeal.

It is obvious that this fight between Miami Beach and Airbnb will continue. There is simply too much money at stake. As an example, in May 2017 Airbnb collected $522,000 in taxes on behalf of 6800 hosts for Miami-Dade County. That was only one month and did not include Miami Beach. Those tax figures translate into $12 million in Airbnb rentals for the month of May in 2017. It is reasonable to assume that the Airbnb rentals on Miami Beach would equal or exceed the $12 million monthly rentals in Miami-Dade County.
