Profit
Is an Airbnb in Carrickalinga Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Carrickalinga Airbnb took in A$25,935 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about A$1,300 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$2,290 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the A$3,800 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about A$1,610 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about A$1,110 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 Carrickalinga's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Carrickalinga listings are booked on 42% or more of their nights, against 26% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of A$340 adds about A$3,380 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge A$435 a night or more, against a median of A$340. 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$2,210 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, January brings the average listing about A$5,930, against A$2,270 in August, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Carrickalinga listings average 4.72 stars, and 29% 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$3,790 a month, against A$2,160 for the average one.

How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Carrickalinga?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Carrickalinga Airbnb grossed A$25,935 in the 12 months to September 2026, 36% below the South Australia average of A$40,737. Run by its owner, with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, A$15,555 a year (about A$1,300 a month) is left before the mortgage or rent.
