Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Niagara Falls?

Gross bookings per Niagara Falls listing averaged CA$29,463 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Ontario average: CA$29,187), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Niagara Falls listing brings in CA$6,520 in July, its best month, and CA$1,610 in February, its slowest. August runs within 4% of July, so either can come out on top in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 44% 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 CA$7,400+ a month, about 2.8 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn CA$4,610 or more, roughly CA$2,000 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about CA$2,660 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn CA$1,240 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.

July earns about four times what February does

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Niagara Falls Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Niagara Falls Airbnb took in CA$29,463 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about CA$1,640 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$2,860 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the CA$2,710 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about CA$1,860 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about CA$1,410 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 Niagara Falls's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Niagara Falls listings are booked on 58% or more of their nights, against 38% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of CA$200 adds about CA$2,010 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge CA$310 a night or more, against a median of CA$200. 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$2,680 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about CA$6,520, against CA$1,610 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Niagara Falls listings average 4.74 stars, and 41% 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$4,250 a month, against CA$2,460 for the average one.

Nightly rates

How Much Does an Airbnb Cost per Night in Niagara Falls?

The average nightly rate in Niagara Falls, known as ADR (average daily rate), was CA$266 over the past year, about the same as the Ontario average (CA$270) and about 5% below the Canada average of CA$280. In a typical year, rates peak in July and August at about CA$300 and bottom out in February at about CA$210.

Prices span a wide range: the top 10% charge about 3.5 times the rate of the bottom quarter.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) charge CA$465+ a night, about 2.3 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) charge CA$310 or more, about CA$110 above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) charge about CA$200 a night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) charge CA$135 or less, about two-thirds of the median.

July rates run 42% above February's

Average nightly rate (ADR), by month, September 2024 to August 2026

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, CA$249. The 12-month ADR of CA$266 averages each listing's own rate across its whole year; the monthly points average listings month by month, so the two differ.

What Is the RevPAR for Airbnb in Niagara Falls?

RevPAR, or revenue per available night, divides a listing's income by every night it was open to book, so it rises with both price and bookings. In Niagara Falls it averaged CA$108 over the past year, from about CA$57 in a typical February to about CA$210 in a typical July.

Per open night, by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn CA$209+ per open night, about 2.4 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn CA$142 or more, about CA$55 a night above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about CA$86 per open night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn CA$45 or less, about half of the median.

July RevPAR is about 3.7 times February's

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Niagara Falls

Airbnb is legal in Niagara Falls only with a City vacation rental unit licence ($500, then $250 a year) in a tourist or commercial zone; renting a home in a residential zone is illegal, with court fines up to $100,000.

None of the 1,143 active listings in Niagara Falls display a registration, permit or license number. That doesn't mean no rules apply: some places don't ask hosts to show a number on the listing, and listing data doesn't capture every scheme.

The permit, operating limits and taxes on a stay are set out in the Niagara Falls Airbnb regulations, each rule linked to its official source and checked October 2026.
