- 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.
i remember my first lifestyle visit they put us up in a designer home right off the bridge in lake sumter. It was fantastic. Came with the golf cart. Roman shower. It was beautiful. The next time we came they put us in a court yard villa. Which we considered a downgrade for no reason at all. So i understand why people will go to places like airbnb to view the villages for a future purchase.
