Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Imbituba?

Gross bookings per Imbituba listing averaged R$30,091 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Santa Catarina average: R$39,183), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Imbituba listing brings in R$9,920 in January, its best month, and R$2,590 in August, its slowest. September runs within 4% of August, so either can be the slowest in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 43% 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 4.6 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn R$10,400+ a month, about 3.8 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn R$5,600 or more, roughly R$2,900 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about R$2,700 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn R$1,210 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 Imbituba Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Imbituba Airbnb took in R$30,091 in the 12 months to September 2026, an average that counts every active listing, including those open only part of the year. A listing in the top quarter took in about R$62,390, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about R$3,730 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money.

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 Imbituba's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Imbituba listings are booked on 40% or more of their nights, against 22% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of R$385 adds about R$3,830 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge R$595 a night or more, against a median of R$385. 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 R$2,810 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, January brings the average listing about R$9,920, against R$2,590 in August, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Imbituba listings average 4.87 stars, and 42% 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 R$5,200 a month, against R$2,510 for the average one.

How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Imbituba?

Do you need a permit for an Airbnb in Imbituba?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Imbituba Airbnb grossed R$30,091 in the 12 months to September 2026, 23% below the Santa Catarina average of R$39,183, counting listings open only part of the year. A listing at the top-quarter mark, run by its owner with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, has about R$3,730 a month left before the mortgage or rent, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit.
