Who collects hotel occupancy tax on rentals?

Texas charges a 6 percent state hotel occupancy tax on vacation rental stays, and Crystal Beach adds no local occupancy tax. That compares with local occupancy taxes of about 5 percent in Panama City Beach, Florida, 7 percent in Port Aransas and 9 percent in Galveston. For homes in the resort rental program, Camp Margaritaville Resort collects the tax and remits it to the State of Texas for the owner.
