Read this before you write an offer Being on the City's list is a zoning permission, not a strata permission. Kelowna requires a signed strata consent form before it will issue a short term rental business licence, and a strata can restrict or ban nightly rental in its own bylaws regardless of the zoning. You also need provincial registration. I check the strata bylaws, the rental and age restrictions, the depreciation report and the current licence status on every unit before my clients remove subjects.

Yes. Playa del Sol at 648-654 Cook Rd is on the City of Kelowna's list of properties zoned for short term rental as a principal use, effective June 1, 2026. Verified October 22, 2026. You still need a City business licence, provincial registration, and signed strata consent.

Do you have to live in your unit at Playa del Sol?

No. The principal residence requirement does not apply to Playa del Sol. That is what makes it one of only 25 addresses in Kelowna where you can own a unit purely as a nightly rental.
