Are you a Palm Springs homeowner affected by short-term rental (STR) regulations? Many owners have found themselves exceeding the STR cap, making it challenging to maximize their property’s potential. Fortunately, Month+ rentals in Palm Springs provide a legal and profitable alternative. Open Air Homes specializes in 30-day minimum stays, ensuring your home remains compliant while generating consistent income.

Understanding Palm Springs’ STR Restrictions

Palm Springs limits the number of vacation rentals permitted within city boundaries, making it difficult for new homeowners to secure STR permits. If your home is above the city’s rental threshold or you’ve reached your maximum STR nights, switching to Month+ rentals is the best way to keep your property generating revenue.

The Benefits of Month+ Rentals

  • 100% Legal & Compliant – Avoid STR permit restrictions by offering 30-day stays.
  • Steady, Reliable Income – Longer bookings mean fewer gaps between guests.
  • Lower Wear & Tear – Less turnover reduces maintenance and cleaning costs.
  • Diverse Guest Profiles – Attract remote workers, snowbirds, and extended vacationers.
