Profit
Is an Airbnb in St. Elizabeths Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average St. Elizabeths Airbnb took in BBD 24,295 in the 12 months to April 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about BBD 1,440 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 2,730 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the BBD 1,760 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about BBD 1,580 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about BBD 1,250 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.

- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of St. Elizabeths listings are booked on 49% or more of their nights, against 27% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of BBD 360 adds about BBD 3,610 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge BBD 450 a night or more, against a median of BBD 360.

- Open for the busy months. February brought the average listing about BBD 5,550, against BBD 1,850 in July, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
