Revenue
How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Wellington?
Gross bookings per Wellington listing averaged CA$49,824 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 Wellington listing brings in CA$12,000 in August, its best month, and CA$1,800 in February, 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 51% 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 2.6 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn CA$10,100+ a month, about 2.2 times the typical property.
- Strong performers (top 25%) earn CA$7,350 or more, roughly CA$2,800 a month above the median.
- Typical properties (median) earn about CA$4,520 a month.
- Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn CA$2,750 or less, about 61% 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 Wellington Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Wellington Airbnb took in CA$49,824 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about CA$2,760 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$4,520 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the CA$4,150 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about CA$3,100 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about CA$2,380 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 Wellington's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Wellington listings are booked on 54% or more of their nights, against 38% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of CA$355 adds about CA$3,550 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge CA$500 a night or more, against a median of CA$355. 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$4,570 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, August brings the average listing about CA$12,000, against CA$1,800 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Wellington listings average 4.87 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$6,750 a month, against CA$4,150 for the average one.

How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Wellington?

Do you need a permit for an Airbnb in Wellington?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Wellington Airbnb grossed CA$49,824 in the 12 months to September 2026, 71% above the Ontario average of CA$29,187.

A home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit, and a listing at the top-quarter mark leaves about CA$4,520 a month. Check a specific home in the Airbnb estimator.
