Registration Enforcement

The City currently utilizes a  program called Rentalscape by Deckard Technoloties to assist in tracking all homes that have been advertised as a vacation rental through sites such as AirBnB and Vrbo.  This helps the City in enforcing the registration policy.

Please send all complaints regarding any suspected illegal operation of vacation rentals via email at ngold@indianharbourbeach.gov.  For Code Enforcement related issues, please email our Fire Marshal/Code Enforcement Officer, Linda Johnson at ljohnson@indianharbourbeach.gov or by phone at 321.604.6466.  Please include the property address and supporting photos and/or documentation to validate your complaint. You may also call us at 321-773-3181 or contact the non-emergency police dispatch number at 321-773-3030.

If your property has been cited for operating as a Vacation Rental, you must comply by:

  1. Obtaining your Certificate of Compliance with the City of Indian Harbour Beach. To register for the Certificate, please visit our Register/Renew page.
  1. Discontinuing as a vacation rental through deactivating/closing down all advertisements and providing the following to the City Clerk's office:
    1. Affidavit of Compliance (PDF)
    2. Proof of deactivation or closing of all the advertisements.

Note: If you discontinue, you are still able to proceed with the registration process, but cannot advertise or rent out until you have completed the registration and received your Certificate of Compliance.

The operation of a Vacation Rental without registration after October 1, 2018, shall be a violation of this ordinance and shall have a fine as set by resolution.
