Authorities in the state of Hawaii have announced a ban on short-term rentals of residential properties for tourism purposes.
This decision, aimed at increasing local residents' access to long-term housing, is expected to undoubtedly impact the tourism industry in the region.
Experts believe that finding affordable accommodations for tourists in Hawaii will become more challenging.
Some tourists may opt for alternative destinations for their vacations, while others will turn to hotels or authorized accommodations on home-sharing platforms.
