Market Overview
This profile covers Pinellas Park, Florida, using data through September 2026. Short-term rental performance is tracked at a shared regional level, so every performance figure below describes the Pinellas County STR market.

In September 2026 the average daily rate across all listings was $220, occupancy was 47.3%, and average monthly revenue per listing was $2,937. Compared with September 2025, occupancy is up 5.6%, ADR is up 7.4% and revenue is up 7.0%. September is also the weakest month in the seasonal averages, at 48.3% occupancy, so the current reading sits at the usual low point of the year rather than signaling a new slump.

Listing counts, bedroom mix, channel mix and top operators are tracked at a shared regional level rather than uniquely for Pinellas Park, so this profile omits them.
Pinellas Park is not a beach destination. Demand comes from its position as an affordable lodging base near the Gulf beaches, John’s Pass and downtown St. Petersburg. Pinellas County as a whole draws roughly 15 million visitors annually. Local draws are niche: the Tampa Bay Automobile Museum, Showtime Speedway, the Pinellas Arts Village and Sawgrass Lake Park. Guests skew toward regional Florida day-trippers, motorsport and car-culture enthusiasts, birdwatchers and value-oriented travelers.
The typical home value in Pinellas Park is $302,985, with a median sale price of $303,383 and a median of 30 days to pending.

Short-Term Rental Regulations
Pinellas Park permits short-term rentals. The City of Pinellas Park, an incorporated municipality, has no local short-term rental ordinance and no registration or permit requirement. There is no owner-occupancy requirement, no primary-residence requirement and no annual night cap at the city level. Enforcement severity is rated minimal. Standard residential zoning applies.
The key distinction is county versus city. Pinellas County’s 2025 Short-Term Rental Certificate of Use program (Ordinance 25-15) carries a $450 annual renewal fee, a $150 initial inspection, occupancy caps, off-street parking rules and safety inspections. It applies only to unincorporated Pinellas County, not to incorporated cities such as Pinellas Park, and the city has not adopted a comparable ordinance.
State-level obligations still apply. Operators need a Florida DBPR vacation-rental license and a Florida Department of Revenue sales-tax registration. They must also collect and remit the 6% Pinellas County Tourist Development Tax on stays of six months or less, in addition to 6% Florida state sales tax and the 1% county discretionary surtax, for roughly 13% in total transient taxes.
The most common practical constraint is private. HOA and POA covenants and deed restrictions may still prohibit or limit STRs on individual properties, and Florida state law preempts most new municipal STR bans. Investors should confirm current rules with the City Clerk at 727-541-0706 and review any HOA documents before buying.
Market Comparison
The Pinellas County STR market looks soft in September and firmer on an annual view. The September 2026 occupancy of 47.3% sits close to the seasonal low of 48.3%, so the current reading is typical for the time of year.
The annual figures tell a stronger story. Across the first nine months of 2026, occupancy averaged 65.6% and ADR averaged $268. In 2025 the full-year figures were 64.7% occupancy and a $250 ADR. The March seasonal average of 82.4% occupancy shows how high demand runs in the winter and spring.
Year-over-year growth is also healthy. September ADR is up 7.4% and revenue up 6.98%, which rounds to 7.0%.
The tradeoff is volatility. The gap between the March peak and the September trough is large, so investors should plan for uneven cash flow. Top operators are tracked at a shared regional level rather than uniquely for Pinellas Park, so this profile omits them. Pinellas Park has a typical home value of $302,985.
