Revenue
Gross bookings per Paihuano listing averaged CLP 6,998,270 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Coquimbo Region average: CLP 4,962,165), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Paihuano listing brings in CLP 1,590,000 in February, its best month, and CLP 680,000 in October, its slowest. August runs within 2% of October, so either can be the slowest in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 35% 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 4.2 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
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.
February earns about 2.3 times what October does

Profit
Yes, when it's run well. The average Paihuano Airbnb took in CLP 6,998,270 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 CLP 14,904,000, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about CLP 906,000 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.

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 CLP 1,242,000 a month, against CLP 583,000 for the average one.

The busiest tenth of listings are booked about 5.3 times as often as the bottom quarter.

The 12-month rate of 25% averages each listing's whole year, slow months included; each month here counts only the listings booked in it.
Nightly rates
The average nightly rate in Paihuano, known as ADR (average daily rate), was CLP 107,844 over the past year, about 24% above the Coquimbo Region and Chile averages (CLP 86,900 and CLP 88,700). Averaged month by month over the past two years, rates peak in June and July at about CLP 106,000 and bottom out in October and November at about CLP 94,800.
The top 10% charge about 2.7 times the rate of the bottom quarter.
July rates run 12% above October's
Average nightly rate (ADR), by month, September 2024 to August 2026
The dashed line is the average of the months shown, CLP 100,000. The 12-month ADR of CLP 107,844 averages each listing's own rate across its whole year; the monthly points average listings month by month, so the two differ.
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 Paihuano it averaged CLP 28,400 over the past year, from about CLP 21,900 in a typical October to about CLP 56,800 in a typical February.
A small group of listings earns several times more per open night than the rest.

Permits
2% of the 162 active listings in Paihuano display a registration, permit or license number. A low share 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.
Registration, permit, zoning and tourist-tax rules vary by address and change often, so confirm them with the local authority before buying or listing in Paihuano.

Yes, when it's run well. The average Paihuano Airbnb grossed CLP 6,998,270 in the 12 months to September 2026, 41% above the Coquimbo Region average of CLP 4,962,165, 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 CLP 906,000 a month left before the mortgage or rent, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit.
