Short-Term Rental Regulations
in Sunrise, FL

Airbnbs are effectively legal in Sunrise, FL because there are no specific short-term rental regulations on the books. No Sunrise municipal ordinance or city permitting guidance for short-term/vacation rentals was located on official Sunrise (sunrisefl.gov) or the City’s codified ordinances (Municode) during this search; Broward County’s Residential Rental Certificate applies only to unincorporated Broward County and directs city properties to the city for regulation. Therefore no city- or county-published STR restrictions, zoning limitations, occupancy limits, primary-residence requirements, minimum stays, or host-presence rules were found on official sources. Operators should still verify HOA rules, state-level requirements, and any tax-collection obligations. See the official source linked on this page for full requirements. Last verified 2026-05-14.
