EDIT: Apparently at one time there was a Temporary Lifestyle ID that a resident could request for someone staying at their home. The resident initiated the request and turned in his/her Resident ID. The temporary resident (renter) would go to the appropriate sales office and be issued a paper version of a Resident ID (not a Guest ID).
- The holder of the plastic resident ID (typically the homeowner) needs to initiate the request and turn in their ID
- There may be rules on the frequency that these Temporary IDs may be given out that might not be compatible with Airbnb rentals
- Perhaps contact one of the Villages Sales Offices to get official, up to date information
- Contact your Airbnb host to see if they provide this with their home
- If the host is not willing to turn in their Resident ID they could still submit an application for a Guest ID in your name

Is there is no such thing as a Lifestyle pass? I've never heard of one so the above statement may be correct.

If the OP is inquiring about an owner suspending an ID to transfer it to a renter then that *MAY* be available for an Airbnb (or any other rental). I thought I saw the information about the process one time but I can't find it now.

Plus, as others have pointed out, the OP may be able to have the homeowner apply for a Guest Pass for him/her.
