Profit
Is an Airbnb in Holetown Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Holetown Airbnb took in BBD 66,704 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about BBD 3,840 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 BBD 7,120 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the BBD 4,220 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about BBD 4,190 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about BBD 3,320 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 Holetown's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Holetown listings are booked on 70% or more of their nights, against 48% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of BBD 360 adds about BBD 3,590 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge BBD 730 a night or more, against a median of BBD 360. 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 BBD 6,250 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, February brings the average listing about BBD 12,200, against BBD 4,840 in September, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Holetown listings average 4.81 stars, and 41% 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 BBD 10,210 a month, against BBD 5,560 for the average one.
