Averages per active listing in each month. Highlighted: the highest-revenue month of the 12. RevPAR is the month's revenue spread over its nights, booked or not. Booking lead time is the days between booking and check-in, and length of stay the nights per booking, for stays in that month.
The typical Blueys Beach listing earns about A$4,370 a month, but one property can land well above or below that. The Airbnb estimator gives a range for a specific address, built from the comparable listings around it.
Profit
Yes, when it's run well. The average Blueys Beach Airbnb took in A$48,410 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about A$2,520 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money. A listing in the top quarter leaves about A$4,450 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the A$6,390 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about A$3,050 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about A$2,170 a month.
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.
