Why Can’t You Find Any Airbnbs in Celebration Florida?

Have you ever wondered why you cannot find any Airbnb options in Celebration, Florida when trying to book an Airbnb for your Disney World vacation? Some Airbnb posts include Celebration in the title but in fact those places are not located in Celebration but the surrounding areas. So why can’t you find any?

Honestly, from a visitor’s point of view it would be a dream come true to stay in one of the beautifully designed homes in the town Walt Disney dreamed of and waking up to see all the green areas around Celebration while enjoying a cup of coffee on a comfortable rocking chair on a front porch overseeing a pond. You might even be able to see a deer or two walking around!

However, the truth is that Celebration believes that only residents should be able to enjoy those precious moments. In fact, Celebration does not allow Airbnbs to operate within the town and it strictly prohibits short-term rentals in residential areas. This makes it a difficult environment for Airbnb hosts to operate legally and without the risk of penalties.

You can find Airbnbs in nearby neighborhoods around Disney World like Kissimmee, Davenport and Windermere but Celebration is kept out of reach for these types of rentals and this just adds to the uniqueness of the town. The message from the town is you can come by, eat at our restaurants, walk around, even enjoy some of our events but when the day is over only residents can enjoy these amazing houses, townhouses, condos and long-term apartment rentals.

The good news is that there are other options that will allow you to stay in Celebration and see how it feels to wake up in Walt Disney’s town. The top choices are hotels like the Celebration Hotel located downtown steps away from all the downtown fun or the Meliá Orlando Celebration Hotel which a resort with lots of amenities that guarantee a great time.

Celebration really is a unique town and no you will not find any Airbnbs here. If you have love for the town like I do, you might want to consider buying a vacation property here. A house, a townhouse or a condo would be a perfect vacation home when visiting Disney World and it could even become a stay-forever home. There are also luxurious long-term rental apartments available like the ones at the Cortland Colburn complex. I am beyond lucky to call Celebration my home and I wouldn’t want to live anywhere else. Are you ready to love Celebration?
