Can I use my short-term rental property for personal use in between guest stays?

Yes, you can use your short-term rental property for personal use in between guest stays in Dubai. One of the advantages of operating a short-term rental is the flexibility it offers to owners. You can block off specific dates for personal use whenever the property is not booked by guests. This allows you to enjoy the property during downtime without compromising your rental income.

However, you must ensure that the property remains in compliance with Dubai’s Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing (DTCM) regulations at all times. This means maintaining the standards required for short-term rentals, including cleanliness, safety, and proper maintenance, even when you're using it personally.

Additionally, it’s important to ensure your calendar is accurately updated on any rental platform you use (like Airbnb or Booking.com) to avoid any accidental double bookings when you plan to use the property yourself​.

This flexibility makes short-term rentals an attractive option for property owners who want to balance personal use and earning potential.
