Very Investor friendly
STRs are explicitly permitted citywide with no caps, and the main requirement is simple state-level CTPR hotelier registration and a 7% room tax setup, keeping start‑up costs low. Puerto Rico provides clear rules and tax guidance, and the city stance is supportive with minimal local restrictions. The biggest risks are tax remittance and compliance timing rather than prohibitive rules, keeping investor tolerance high.
