Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in El Peñol?

Gross bookings per El Peñol listing averaged COP 52,576,027 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Antioquia average: COP 34,769,863), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average El Peñol listing brings in COP 7,170,000 in December, its best month, and COP 4,070,000 in September, its slowest. Both ends are close calls: December leads July by 3%, and September sits just 3% below October, so either pair can swap places in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 31% 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 5.7 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn COP 14,900,000+ a month, about 5.2 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn COP 6,640,000 or more, roughly COP 3,800,000 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about COP 2,850,000 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn COP 1,160,000 or less, about 41% 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.

December earns about 1.8 times what September does

Average revenue per active listing, by month, September 2024 to August 2026

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, COP 5,660,000. Each point is one month as recorded, averaged over the listings active in it. The best and slowest months in the text average each calendar month over the past two years, so they can differ from the highest and lowest points here.

El Peñol Airbnb Data by Month

Latest 12 months in the September 2026 data. September's figures are still coming in, so the rows run to August.

July 2026 led on revenue. Nightly rates peaked in August 2026 and bookings in June 2026, so the best-paying month is not always the busiest or the priciest. Across the past two years, December is usually the strongest month.

The typical El Peñol listing earns about COP 2,850,000 a month, but one property can land well above or below that. The Airbnb calculator gives a range for a specific address, built from the comparable listings around it.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in El Peñol Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average El Peñol Airbnb took in COP 52,576,027 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about COP 3,140,000 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 COP 7,400,000 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the COP 1,960,000 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about COP 3,300,000 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about COP 2,720,000 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 El Peñol's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of El Peñol listings are booked on 35% or more of their nights, against 19% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of COP 451,000 adds about COP 4,510,000 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge COP 764,000 a night or more, against a median of COP 451,000. 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 COP 5,060,000 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, December brings the average listing about COP 7,170,000, against COP 4,070,000 in September, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. El Peñol listings average 4.83 stars, and 39% 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 COP 10,210,000 a month, against COP 4,380,000 for the average one.

Occupancy

What Is the Airbnb Occupancy Rate in El Peñol?

El Peñol listings were booked on 22% of the nights they were open over the past year, 15 percentage points below the Antioquia average (37%) and 11 points below the Colombia average (33%). In a typical year, occupancy stays within a narrow band, from 21% in October to 29% in December.

The busiest tenth of listings are booked about 6.2 times as often as the bottom quarter.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) are booked 56%+ of open nights, 37 points above the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) fill 35% or more, roughly two and a half nights a week.
  • Typical properties (median) fill about 19% of open nights.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) fill 9% or less, less than one night a week.

December is usually the busiest month in El Peñol, October the quietest

Share of open nights booked, by month, September 2024 to August 2026

The 12-month rate of 22% averages each listing's whole year, slow months included; each month here counts only the listings booked in it.

Nightly rates

How Much Does an Airbnb Cost per Night in El Peñol?

The average nightly rate in El Peñol, known as ADR (average daily rate), was COP 726,237 over the past year, about twice the Antioquia average of COP 372,000 and about twice the Colombia average of COP 353,000. Averaged month by month over the past two years, rates peak in July and August at about COP 710,000 and bottom out in February and September at about COP 618,000.

Prices span a wide range: the top 10% charge about 4.9 times the rate of the bottom quarter.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) charge COP 1,510,000+ a night, about 3.4 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) charge COP 764,000 or more, about COP 310,000 above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) charge about COP 451,000 a night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) charge COP 311,000 or less, about two-thirds of the median.

August rates run 15% above February's

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

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, COP 656,000. The 12-month ADR of COP 726,237 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 El Peñol?

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 El Peñol it averaged COP 179,000 over the past year, from about COP 136,000 in a typical October to about COP 231,000 in a typical December.

A small group of listings earns several times more per open night than the rest.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn COP 402,000+ per open night, about 4.4 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn COP 195,000 or more, about COP 100,000 a night above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about COP 92,300 per open night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn COP 40,800 or less, about 44% of the median.
