How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Port Sorell?
Gross bookings per Port Sorell listing averaged A$33,178 over the 12 months to October 2026 (Tasmania average: A$48,678), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Port Sorell listing brings in A$5,430 in March, its best month, and A$2,820 in August, its slowest. Both ends are close calls: March leads January by 3%, and August sits just 2% below May, so either pair can swap places in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 33% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.
Across Port Sorell's 29 active listings, monthly revenue by tier:
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn A$8,400+ a month, about 2.5 times the typical property.

- Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn A$1,520 or less, about 45% 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.

Profit
Is an Airbnb in Port Sorell Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Port Sorell Airbnb took in A$33,178 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about A$1,780 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$2,750 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the A$3,090 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about A$2,040 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about A$1,530 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 Port Sorell's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Port Sorell listings are booked on 70% or more of their nights, against 40% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of A$220 adds about A$2,190 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge A$295 a night or more, against a median of A$220. 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$3,010 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, March brings the average listing about A$5,430, against A$2,820 in August, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Port Sorell listings average 4.89 stars, and 69% 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$4,220 a month, against A$2,760 for the average one.
