             2.5.2.2 Dwellings used for short-term accommodation – supply, type and distribution
             4,753 dwellings across Noosa Shire were identified and verified as being used for short-term
             accommodation, which included 80 properties using secondary dwellings for short stay letting
             or residents undertaking home hosted accommodation.
             Of these, 4673 were entire dwellings used for short term accommodation on an ongoing basis.
             The use of dwellings for short-term accommodation was concentrated in the coastal urban
             area.
             Of particular note, 29% of all residential rated properties in the coastal urban area of Noosa
             Shire were identified as being used for short-term accommodation comprising 3,788 multiple
             dwellings (apartments, townhouses and duplexes) and 885 dwelling houses. A very significant
             45% of all residential rated properties in Noosa Heads were identified as being used for short-
             term accommodation.
             Noosaville also had a significant portion of its residential rated properties being used as short-
             term accommodation (27%) and the smaller beachside suburbs of Sunshine Beach and
             Peregian Beach had 28% and 21% respectively, of residential rated dwellings being used as
             short-term accommodation.
             Overall, multiple dwellings ranging from 1-3 bedrooms were the main dwelling type being used
             for short-term accommodation across the coastal urban area, with high concentrations in
             Hastings Street, Noosa Parade, Noosa Drive, Gympie Terrace, Sunshine Beach and Peregian
             Beach.

             Whilst dwelling houses used for short-term accommodation were mostly concentrated around
             Noosa Sound, Noosa River and Sunshine Beach they were also consistently scattered
             throughout the balance of Noosaville, Noosa Heads and the stretch from Sunshine Beach to
             Peregian Beach. Table 18 outlines the type and number of dwellings used for short-term
             accommodation by location and as a percentage of total residential rated dwellings.
