Rules vary across Ica. I don't have reliable data on short-term rental regulations or enforcement reality for Ica or Huacachina, Peru. These smaller Peruvian destinations likely have minimal formal STR frameworks at the municipal level. Peru's national tourism regulations require lodging establishments to register with MINCETUR, but enforcement in smaller cities, especially for informal STR operations, is typically very light. Verify requirements for the property's jurisdiction.
