@Alex Appolonia I'm sure there are others here who have more detailed information on this, but in case no one responds, I can say this is an evolving area and your best bet is to contact the Narragansett and South Kingstown building officials.
I know that in Narragansett regular rentals require an application/permit and it seems that short-term rentals do too but I can't seem to find the form for that on the town site and it may still be in-progress so I would recommend calling them. They might also be able to tell you about changes that are in the works and likely to pass, so you'll know that ahead of time.
I don't see the same type of permit required for S.K., at least on their website, and the only thing I see related to AirBNB is a COVID-related announcement which I don't think is applicable any more due to the COVID restrictions of 2020 being loosened this year. But again it's best to just call and ask to get the most up-to-date information from the horse's mouth.
