West Palm Beach management

Market snapshot

What the West Palm Beach short-term rental market looks like.

Affluent, seasonal demand

Beaches, downtown Clematis and Rosemary, SunFest, and the nearby Wellington equestrian season drive a strong winter-through-spring market — recent data puts West Palm around a $189 average nightly rate and roughly 67% occupancy.

Residential limits matter

Most residential West Palm Beach carries a six-month-and-a-day minimum, so short-term rental is generally limited to transient-zoned and commercial areas.

Winter is the money season

Rates and occupancy climb December through April as northern visitors arrive.
