Modelled estimate (Ashota model v1). Annual revenue = modelled ADR × 365 × modelled occupancy, starting from market archetype benchmarks and adjusted for local demand drivers. No licensed short-term rental performance data is behind these figures yet, so treat them as a starting assumption to test against your own property, not an observed market result.

What owners run into here

Fort Myers is a gulf beach market, so demand is concentrated in Feb–Mar–Apr. Pricing, minimum stays and staffing all have to flex around that. We have not yet written up first-hand owner notes for this market.

County and jurisdiction notes

Short-term rentals here are governed by Fort Myers and Lee County. We have not yet verified those rules against the official code text, so nothing is published as fact on this page.
