Profit
Is an Airbnb in Port Stanley Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Port Stanley Airbnb took in CA$22,777 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about CA$1,180 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$2,850 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the CA$2,930 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about CA$1,420 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about CA$1,010 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 Port Stanley's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Port Stanley listings are booked on 50% or more of their nights, against 28% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of CA$265 adds about CA$2,640 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge CA$335 a night or more, against a median of CA$265. 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$1,980 a year.
- Open for the busy months. August brought the average listing about CA$6,860, against CA$968 in November, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Port Stanley listings average 4.70 stars, and 57% 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$4,530 a month, against CA$1,900 for the average one.
