If you ask Florida what they think, they'll tell you that if it's a rental less than 6 months, the tax must be paid, and you must register to pay the tax before you collect it. The only thing that's unclear is whether it's legal to pretend to the renter that there is no tax that must be paid.
What does it matter if the renter doesnt know theyre paying hotel tax? Rent is rent. Pay it or move on
