Revenue
How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Itapema?
Gross bookings per Itapema listing averaged R$39,780 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 Itapema listing brings in R$14,100 in January, its best month, and R$2,790 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 48% 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 3.7 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn R$12,400+ a month, about 2.7 times the typical property.
- Strong performers (top 25%) earn R$8,090 or more, roughly R$3,500 a month above the median.
- Typical properties (median) earn about R$4,580 a month.
- Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn R$2,150 or less, about half 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 Itapema Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Itapema Airbnb took in R$39,780 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$70,240, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about R$4,130 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 Itapema's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Itapema 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 R$565 adds about R$5,630 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge R$815 a night or more, against a median of R$565. 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$3,680 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, January brings the average listing about R$14,100, against R$2,790 in August, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Itapema listings average 4.86 stars, and 43% 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$5,850 a month, against R$3,320 for the average one.

How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Itapema?

Do you need a permit for an Airbnb in Itapema?
None of the active Itapema listings display a registration, permit or license number. That doesn't mean no rules apply, so confirm registration, permit and tourist-tax rules with the local authority before buying.

Yes, when it's run well. The average Itapema Airbnb grossed R$39,780 in the 12 months to September 2026, in line with the Santa Catarina average, 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$4,130 a month left before the mortgage or rent, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit.
