The condo association claims that the building has a certificate of occupancy for multifamily use, but not for lodging. “It’s important for our hosts to be good neighbors and we have shared the Opera Tower Association’s concerns with members of our host community.” “All Airbnb users agree to comply with applicable laws and regulations, including their HOA and condo board regulations,” the statement said.
The quality of life in the building has been impacted by all these transients.”Ībout 200 condos in the 56-story, 665-unit condominium at 1750 North Bayshore Drive in Miami are available for daily and short-term rentals, but each condo must abide by local and state zoning regulations, according to the lawsuit filed in August in Miami-Dade Circuit Court against Airbnb.Īn Airbnb spokesperson did not specifically comment on the lawsuit, but said in an emailed statement that the company is addressing the complaints from the condo association with hosts who have been using the online booking platform to advertise units at Opera Tower. “The Covid-19 situation brought it to a head. “It’s been a problem for a while and it got out of control,” said Jose Baloyra, the condo association’s attorney. Amid a crackdown on tenants making money off subletting units on a nightly basis, the Miami tower’s condo association is suing Airbnb and two individuals who allegedly refused to stop renting to out-of-town guests. Opera Tower’s status as a short-term rental hotspot appears to be coming to an end.
