Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Vicuña?

Gross bookings per Vicuña listing averaged CLP 4,912,724 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 Vicuña listing brings in CLP 1,160,000 in February, its best month, and CLP 499,000 in August, its slowest. 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 5.1 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn CLP 1,620,000+ a month, about 3.7 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn CLP 984,000 or more, roughly CLP 550,000 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about CLP 437,000 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn CLP 190,000 or less, about 43% 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.

February earns about 2.3 times what August does

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Vicuña Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Vicuña Airbnb took in CLP 4,912,724 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 11,077,000, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about CLP 686,000 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.

How Vicuña's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Vicuña listings are booked on 37% or more of their nights, against 20% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of CLP 77,800 adds about CLP 778,000 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge CLP 103,000 a night or more, against a median of CLP 77,800. 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 CLP 473,000 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, February brings the average listing about CLP 1,160,000, against CLP 499,000 in August, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Vicuña listings average 4.85 stars, and 43% 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 CLP 923,000 a month, against CLP 409,000 for the average one.

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Vicuña

1% of the 227 active listings in Vicuña 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 Vicuña.
