How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Cottesloe?
Gross bookings per Cottesloe listing averaged A$75,970 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Western Australia average: A$50,425), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Cottesloe listing brings in A$10,300 in December, its best month, and A$5,930 in June, its slowest. August runs within 4% of June, so either can be the slowest in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 31% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.
In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 2.2 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn A$15,000+ a month, about 2.2 times the typical property.
- Strong performers (top 25%) earn A$9,950 or more, roughly A$3,100 a month above the median.
- Typical properties (median) earn about A$6,870 a month.
- Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn A$4,480 or less, about two-thirds of the median.

Profit
Is an Airbnb in Cottesloe Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Cottesloe Airbnb took in A$75,970 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about A$4,080 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$5,950 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the A$7,520 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about A$4,710 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about A$3,510 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 Cottesloe's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Cottesloe listings are booked on 84% or more of their nights, against 71% 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$490 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$6,850 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, December brings the average listing about A$10,300, against A$5,930 in June, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Cottesloe listings average 4.82 stars, and 57% 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$9,170 a month, against A$6,330 for the average one.

How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Cottesloe?

Do you need a permit for an Airbnb in Cottesloe?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Cottesloe Airbnb grossed A$75,970 in the 12 months to September 2026, 51% above the Western Australia average of A$50,425.
