How to read this table

Listings are active Airbnb listings run as host or as co-host on the owner's account. Only accounts with 5 or more listings count, so every count is a floor.
Markets are the cities and towns where the company runs at least one active listing. Ratings show from 4.7 over 100 or more reviews.
Added in a year counts listings added on the company's own Airbnb accounts, so a takeover or a rename shows as growth.
Best city lead compares each company's year-round homes in its best city with owner-run homes of the same bedrooms and room type, on 20 or more of its homes. Managers choose their homes, so part of any lead reflects the homes. † A lead of 150% or more also reflects the homes themselves: their size, finish and location.
Hotels, resorts and booking platforms (4 in Australia) are counted in the totals but not ranked: the ranking is of companies that manage homes for owners.

Download the ranking as a CSV file, with each company's listings, markets, rating and growth.

Worth it

Is an Airbnb Manager Worth It in Australia?

In 4 of the 5 Australia cities AirROI compares, the typical company-run home earned at least 3% more Airbnb revenue than a similar owner-run home (same bedrooms and room type) over the 12 months to September 2026. In 3 of them the lead was 25% or more, enough to cover a 20% fee. Managers choose which homes they take on, so part of any lead reflects the homes.

Fees

How Much Does an Airbnb Manager Charge in Australia?

AirROI does not publish or estimate any single company's fee, so ask for the rate card in writing. Too few Australia companies publish one to give a Australia figure (2 of the 39 checked in Sydney and Melbourne), so these figures pool the 180 companies it checked in 11 major Airbnb markets: 102 quote only on request, and the 17 that publish a rate charge 10% to 30% of booking revenue.

Median starting fee, worldwide: 17%
Published fee range: 10%–30%
Quote only on request: 102 of 180

In Melbourne, the typical year-round company-run home earned A$67,400 over the 12 months to September 2026. A 17% fee on that is about A$11,500 a year.

About This Data

Listings: Active Airbnb listings over the 12 months to September 2026: open to bookings through the year, each counted once per company for its host and for every co-host. Airbnb only: homes listed only on Vrbo, Booking.com or a company's own site are not counted.
Companies: A company's Airbnb accounts with 5 or more active listings are joined into one company, so counts and shares are floors. Companies that manage homes for owners are ranked; hotels, resorts and booking platforms are counted in the totals but not ranked.
Ratings: Airbnb's guest rating, averaged across a company's listings and weighted by their reviews. Shown from 4.7 over 100 or more reviews; the best-rated order needs 25+ listings and 500+ reviews.
Growth: Listings added on a company's own Airbnb accounts over 12 months, for companies that ran 10 or more a year ago. Co-hosted listings from a year ago are not fully recorded, and a takeover or a rename shows as growth.
Comparison: The typical company-run home against the median owner-run home with the same bedrooms and room type, on homes listed all year, in the 5 Australia cities with a management page and 50 or more homes in each group.
Fees: Published owner terms on company websites, checked September 29, 2026, pooled across the companies checked. No company's fee is shown.
Independence: No company can pay to be listed or ranked, and nothing is self-reported. The ranking is updated every quarter; this edition on October 20, 2026, the next in January 2027.
