Vacation Rental Properties for Sale in Bloomington, Utah
Bloomington sits on the south end of St. George along the Virgin River, about two hours northeast of Las Vegas and four hours south of Salt Lake. The original Bloomington neighborhood was platted in the 1970s as one of southern Utah's first planned golf communities, and it still centers on the Bloomington Country Club course, mature cottonwoods, and ranch-style homes on larger lots than you'll see in newer St. George subdivisions. Across I-15 sits Bloomington Hills, a separate area with its own country club, newer construction, and a wider mix of condos, townhomes, and single-family homes. Both areas draw second-home buyers chasing 300+ sunshine days a year and proximity to Zion, Snow Canyon, and Sand Hollow.
Vacation rental rules here are stricter than most out-of-state buyers expect. St. George only permits nightly rentals in specific resort-zoned developments, so the majority of single-family homes in Bloomington proper cannot legally operate as short-term rentals. The properties that do qualify tend to be condos and townhomes in approved zones, plus a handful of homes grandfathered under older permits. Mid-term rentals of 30 days or more remain a strong play given the snowbird traffic from November through March. The listings below are filtered to properties marketed for vacation or rental use — verify zoning, HOA rules, and current STR permits with the city before relying on any income projections.

Common questions
About vacation rental properties in Bloomington.
Does Bloomington allow short-term vacation rentals? ▾
Bloomington is inside St. George city limits, and St. George restricts nightly rentals to zones specifically approved for them. Most of the original Bloomington neighborhood south of the Virgin River is zoned residential and does not permit stays under 30 days. Buyers targeting true nightly-rental income should focus on approved STR zones like Bloomington Hills' resort-zoned pockets or nearby Sun River, Coral Canyon, and Hurricane communities.
What's the difference between Bloomington and Bloomington Hills for rental use? ▾
Bloomington (the older neighborhood west of I-15 along the Virgin River) is almost entirely long-term residential. Bloomington Hills, east of the freeway, has a mix of residential and a handful of resort-zoned condo developments where nightly rentals are legal. Always verify the specific parcel's zoning with St. George Community Development before writing an offer based on rental income.
What kind of nightly rates and occupancy can owners expect? ▾
Approved STR properties in the greater St. George area typically run $180–$400 per night depending on size, pool, and proximity to Zion and Snow Canyon. Occupancy peaks March through May and again in October during the shoulder seasons when northern visitors escape winter and southern visitors avoid 105-degree summers. July and August see softer bookings unless the home has a pool.
Are 30-day minimum rentals a workable strategy here? ▾
Yes. Mid-term rentals of 30 days or longer are allowed throughout most of Bloomington and draw snowbirds from October through April, traveling nurses at Intermountain and Dixie Regional, and remote workers. Monthly furnished rates generally run $2,800–$5,500 depending on size and amenities, which pencils out for many owners without triggering STR zoning issues.
Does an HOA approval matter on top of city zoning? ▾
It matters a great deal. Several Bloomington-area condo and townhome HOAs prohibit rentals under 30 days, six months, or even a year regardless of what the city allows. Request the CC&Rs and current rental cap status before going under contract, since some HOAs also maintain waitlists once a rental cap is hit.
What features rent best in this market? ▾
A private pool is the single biggest driver of nightly rate and summer occupancy in Bloomington's desert climate, where June through September regularly tops 100 degrees. After that, buyers prioritize a casita or separate primary suite for multi-family groups, golf course frontage, and quick access to Zion (about 45 minutes) and Snow Canyon (15 minutes).
