For Coachella & Stagecoach
POWERED BY
Whether you’re hosting short-term rentals for the first time or you’ve been doing so for a while, get the best and latest resources on hosting for Coachella and Stagecoach. Making sure your property is legal and your practices are up-to-date will ensure a great experience for guests, our communities, and yourself!
MAKE SURE YOUR RENTAL IS LEGAL…
Hosting is a wonderful way to earn supplemental income and cover many of life’s expenses, especially around events like these. But before you list your home for guests, make sure you can do so within your local laws.
Cities across Coachella Valley, Greater Palm Springs, and surrounding regions have rules and requirements for operating short-term rentals, and the penalties for violating them are not worth trying to skirt the law.
Browse the locations below for links to local ordinances. Don’t see your town listed? Visit your local government website and search “short-term rentals”.
… AND HOST GREAT GUESTS!
We love that guests are here to enjoy Coachella and Stagecoach! But while they’re in your property, they’re neighbors, not festivalgoers.
Many local jurisdictions provide Good Neighbor Brochures to help communicate important information to your guests. These include local noise ordinances, occupancy limits, and other policies to help them maintain peaceful enjoyment of our neighborhoods – and avoid penalties that could ruin their stay.
Scroll through the locations below to find yours. We recommend sharing this information prior to arrival and displaying a brochure prominently in your property(s).
