Profit
Is an Airbnb in Provincia de Cartagena Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Provincia de Cartagena Airbnb took in COP 65,546,882 in the 12 months to August 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about COP 3,780,000 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 7,350,000 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the COP 4,760,000 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about COP 4,170,000 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about COP 3,270,000 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 Provincia de Cartagena's Top Earners Get There

- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge COP 502,000 a night or more, against a median of COP 414,000.

For the average listing, a 10% higher rate on the nights it already books adds about COP 6,080,000 a year.
- Open for the busy months. January brought the average listing about COP 12,600,000, against COP 4,670,000 in August, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Provincia de Cartagena listings average 4.85 stars, and 55% 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 10,520,000 a month, against COP 5,460,000 for the average one.
