I don't really buy the damage to communities thing.

Accommodation for tourists will always compete with accommodation for residents. If tourists aren't staying in apartments then you need less apartments and more hotels. If tourists aren't staying in hotels then you have more apartments.

There's not really any data that suggests that short stay accommodation is causing social problems like increasing the cost of living in communities generally.

Of course there are exceptions - holiday destinations with limited accommodation supply, inadequate regulations around short stay accommodation et cetera, but those are the exception rather than the norm.

Here in Western Australia short stay accommodation has to be approved by the local government. If you're approved you get a license number and without that AirBnB et al won't list you.
