How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in The Entrance?

Gross bookings per The Entrance listing averaged A$25,573 over the 12 months to September 2026 (New South Wales average: A$46,850), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average The Entrance listing brings in A$6,630 in January, its best month, and A$2,150 in May, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 38% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn A$7,350+ a month, about 2.8 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn A$4,690 or more, roughly A$2,100 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about A$2,630 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn A$1,420 or less, about 54% of the median.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in The Entrance Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average The Entrance Airbnb took in A$25,573 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about A$1,170 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$2,110 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the A$5,160 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about A$1,600 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about A$1,000 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.

How The Entrance's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of The Entrance listings are booked on 46% or more of their nights, against 27% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of A$335 adds about A$3,360 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge A$420 a night or more, against a median of A$335. 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 A$2,040 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, January brings the average listing about A$6,630, against A$2,150 in May, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. The Entrance listings average 4.44 stars, and 16% 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 A$3,800 a month, against A$2,130 for the average one.
