Market Overview
Hialeah is a large, predominantly Cuban-American city of about 225,476 people in Miami-Dade County, roughly 10 minutes from Downtown Miami. Its own tourism draw is modest and regional, day-trippers and South Florida residents visiting Hialeah Park Racing & Casino and Amelia Earhart Park, plus overflow lodging demand from greater-Miami visitors seeking cheaper stays near Miami International Airport, rather than beach or international tourism. Hialeah’s short-term rental market averaged a $275.62 ADR and 59.0% occupancy in June 2026, the most recent month tracked, producing $162.67 RevPAR and $4,246 in average monthly revenue. Year over year, ADR is up a striking 20.2% and revenue is up 11.5%, even as occupancy eased 4.2%, a market earning meaningfully more per booking despite slightly fewer bookings. Winter is Hialeah’s strongest season: February and March both post occupancy above 71%, with March producing the year’s highest revenue at $4,932.

Short-Term Rental Regulations
Hialeah has no city-specific short-term rental ordinance and defers to Florida state and Miami-Dade County rules. To operate legally, an STR owner needs a Florida DBPR Vacation Rental License, a Miami-Dade County Certificate of Use obtained before listing on Airbnb or Vrbo, and a county Tourist Tax account. Hialeah defines a short-term rental as a unit rented to guests more than three times per year for periods under 30 days. The county Certificate of Use is valid one year, must be renewed annually, and its issuance triggers a property inspection along with proof of ownership, the state license, site and floor plans, and an affidavit of compliance. The permit fee runs about $139.44. Occupancy is limited to 2 persons per bedroom plus 2 more, capped at 12. Owner-occupancy is required only in Estate and Low-Density Residential zones, where the responsible party must reside more than 6 months per year; most residential zones carry no residency requirement. Taxes stack: 6% Florida state sales tax, 1% Miami-Dade local surtax, plus a 6% county Convention & Tourist Development bed tax remitted monthly. Enforcement is active at the county level and classified as moderate, with escalating civil penalties reaching $2,500 for repeat offenses within 24 months. No annual night cap is published in this dataset.
Market Comparison
Nationally, short-term rentals typically run around 55% occupancy and a $220 ADR. Hialeah’s June 2026 figures, 59.0% occupancy and a $275.62 ADR, run above both national benchmarks, reflecting its proximity to Miami and the broader South Florida tourism market even though Hialeah itself is not a primary destination. Property manager market share and per-listing-type performance data are not yet published for Hialeah, so a direct comparison to competing operators or unit types is not possible here. Hialeah’s regulatory posture, no city ordinance but active Miami-Dade County enforcement of the Certificate of Use requirement, makes it less friction-free than markets like Miami Beach or Orlando, but the practical constraint is compliance paperwork rather than an outright cap or ban.
