Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Sarandë?

Gross bookings per Sarandë listing averaged ALL 602,518 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Southern Albania average: ALL 522,272), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Sarandë listing brings in ALL 208,000 in August, its best month, and ALL 44,100 in January, its slowest. February runs within 2% of January, so either can be the slowest in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 48% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 3.8 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn ALL 201,000+ a month, about three times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn ALL 120,000 or more, roughly ALL 55,000 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about ALL 65,500 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn ALL 31,000 or less, about half of the median.

These are monthly figures for listings active in each month. The annual average above also counts listings that operated for only part of the year, so it runs below twelve times these figures.

August earns about 4.7 times what January does

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Sarandë Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Sarandë Airbnb took in ALL 602,518 in the 12 months to September 2026, an average that counts every active listing, including those open only part of the year. A listing in the top quarter took in about ALL 1,100,000, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about ALL 67,800 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money.

These amounts come before housing costs. Where the mortgage or rent is less each month, the difference is profit; a home owned outright keeps it all after property tax, home insurance and any building or condo fees.

How Sarandë's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Sarandë listings are booked on 56% or more of their nights, against 33% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of ALL 5,805 adds about ALL 58,000 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge ALL 8,315 a night or more, against a median of ALL 5,805. That is a separate ranking from the busiest quarter, so the two marks don't multiply into one listing's takings. For the average listing, a 10% higher rate on the nights it already books adds about ALL 58,000 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, August brings the average listing about ALL 208,000, against ALL 44,100 in January, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Sarandë listings average 4.78 stars, and 34% carry Airbnb's Guest Favorite badge, which guests can filter for.

What a listing keeps comes down to the figures this page measures: nightly rate, nights booked and the months it's open. A listing at the top-quarter mark takes in about ALL 91,700 a month, against ALL 50,200 for the average one.
