Gross bookings per Girardota listing averaged COP 35,526,379 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 Girardota listing brings in COP 7,700,000 in December, its best month, and COP 2,810,000 in September, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 36% 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 4.9 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.

Profit
Yes, when it's run well. The average Girardota Airbnb took in COP 35,526,379 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about COP 2,220,000 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 4,800,000 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the COP 1,380,000 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about COP 2,330,000 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about COP 1,930,000 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.
