STR (anything under 181 days) already require a license and there is a 7% tax associated with them. Tax more, tax less, that's up to society to decide.

I do tend to think this is all what my grandmother used to call "Borrowed Trouble". I haven't read any incidents of young people throwing parties at a nightly rental in The Villages. Cocoa Beach, the beach in general, attracts a younger crowd looking to let loose. I think we're imagining that in The Villages, I don't see it happening, but I'm open to be wrong and hear real stories of it.
