How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Genk?
Gross bookings per Genk listing averaged €16,158 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Limburg average: €22,208), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Genk listing brings in €2,260 in August, its best month, and €1,160 in February, its slowest. July runs within 1% of August, so either can come out on top in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 32% 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 4.4 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn €4,070+ a month, about three times the typical property.
- Strong performers (top 25%) earn €2,470 or more, roughly €1,100 a month above the median.
- Typical properties (median) earn about €1,350 a month.
- Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn €556 or less, about 41% 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.

August 2026 led on revenue. Nightly rates peaked in July 2026 and bookings in November 2025, so the best-paying month is not always the busiest or the priciest.

Profit
Is an Airbnb in Genk Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Genk Airbnb took in €16,158 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about €960 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 €1,770 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the €960 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about €1,040 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about €830 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 Genk's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Genk listings are booked on 61% or more of their nights, against 36% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of €105 adds about €1,040 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge €140 a night or more, against a median of €105. 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 €1,520 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, August brings the average listing about €2,260, against €1,160 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Genk listings average 4.81 stars, and 38% 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 €2,470 a month, against €1,350 for the average one.

Is Airbnb profitable in Genk?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Genk Airbnb grossed €16,158 in the 12 months to September 2026, 27% below the Limburg average of €22,208. Run by its owner, with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, €11,478 a year (about €960 a month) is left before the mortgage or rent. A home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit, and a listing at the top-quarter mark leaves about €1,770 a month. Check a specific home in the Airbnb estimator.
