Revenue
How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Colwood?
Gross bookings per Colwood listing averaged CA$38,543 over the 12 months to September 2026 (British Columbia average: CA$45,117), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Colwood listing brings in CA$6,700 in August, its best month, and CA$2,170 in January, its slowest. July runs within 4% of August, so either can come out on top in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 39% 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 2.3 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn CA$7,400+ a month, about twice the typical property.
- Strong performers (top 25%) earn CA$5,480 or more, roughly CA$1,800 a month above the median.
- Typical properties (median) earn about CA$3,680 a month.
- Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn CA$2,340 or less, about two-thirds 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 Colwood Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Colwood Airbnb took in CA$38,543 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about CA$2,130 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 CA$3,210 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the CA$3,160 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about CA$2,400 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about CA$1,840 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 Colwood's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Colwood listings are booked on 80% or more of their nights, against 62% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of CA$180 adds about CA$1,790 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge CA$255 a night or more, against a median of CA$180. 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 CA$3,540 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, August brings the average listing about CA$6,700, against CA$2,170 in January, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Colwood listings average 4.89 stars, and 71% 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 CA$4,790 a month, against CA$3,210 for the average one.
