Anyone who is truly bothered by this please read Florida laws on Air BNBs and vacation rentals. I think together, we may find something. The developer, at the very least, would have to follow Florida Law.

Just asking... could that be the reason the Villages is very proud to advertise: NO HOA fees ? Since there is no HOA, could that exempt them from the Florida laws ? If so, that would explain why we know people in other communities where this whole short term thing was stopped in it's tracks when it started to be disruptive to the "intended sense of community" the development was built to create. If you read the Orlando paper and other papers, you've probably seen the effective actions various HOA's have taken to stop nightly and other short term rentals, stop the devaluation of their property, etc. Made me wonder, perhaps it's the lack of an HOA that allows this and keeps the developers "safe" ? Perhaps the legal eagles out there know ?
