Mary Esther shares this page, and Shipahoy Cottages, LLC runs short-term rentals in Northwest Florida from there. Nearby pages cover Destin, Miramar Beach, Navarre, Santa Rosa Beach and Pensacola Beach, and Key West and Navarre appear in the service areas of a few managers. Okaloosa Island is the part of the area where nearly every condo complex on this page sits, so an owner there will be comparing managers who already know the same buildings.

Florida law frames the market. A vacation rental needs a license from the Division of Hotels and Restaurants before it operates, and cities and counties cannot ban vacation rentals or regulate how long or how often a home is rented, except rules adopted on or before June 1, 2011. The state taxes transient rentals, with county tax added. Condo complexes may set their own house rules, so ask about those in your building.
