Profit
Is an Airbnb in Sabanilla Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Sabanilla Airbnb took in COP 39,356,246 in the 12 months to November 2025, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about COP 2,390,000 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 4,660,000 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 Sabanilla's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Sabanilla listings are booked on 30% or more of their nights, against 19% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of COP 540,000 adds about COP 5,400,000 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge COP 809,000 a night or more, against a median of COP 540,000. 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 3,940,000 a year.
- Open for the busy months. December brought the average listing about COP 8,380,000, against COP 3,350,000 in August, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
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 6,320,000 a month, against COP 3,280,000 for the average one.
