Profit
Is an Airbnb in Villa de Leyva Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Villa de Leyva Airbnb took in COP 24,814,664 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 COP 57,260,000, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about COP 3,470,000 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 Villa de Leyva's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Villa de Leyva listings are booked on 32% or more of their nights, against 17% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of COP 303,000 adds about COP 3,030,000 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge COP 533,000 a night or more, against a median of COP 303,000. 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 2,390,000 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, December brings the average listing about COP 4,810,000, against COP 2,360,000 in September, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Villa de Leyva listings average 4.81 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 COP 4,770,000 a month, against COP 2,070,000 for the average one.
