Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Apulo?

Gross bookings per Apulo listing averaged COP 69,014,120 over the 12 months to September 2026 (RAP (Especial) Central average: COP 21,923,004), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Apulo listing brings in COP 13,800,000 in December, its best month, and COP 6,080,000 in May, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 33% 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 4.4 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn COP 20,000,000+ a month, about three times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn COP 12,500,000 or more, roughly COP 6,000,000 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about COP 6,530,000 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn COP 2,800,000 or less, about 43% 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 2.3 times what May does

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

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, COP 8,710,000. 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.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Apulo Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Apulo Airbnb took in COP 69,014,120 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about COP 4,140,000 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 8,030,000 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the COP 2,430,000 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about COP 4,350,000 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about COP 3,590,000 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 Apulo's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Apulo listings are booked on 36% or more of their nights, against 20% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of COP 1,030,000 adds about COP 10,300,000 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge COP 1,380,000 a night or more, against a median of COP 1,030,000. 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 6,660,000 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, December brings the average listing about COP 13,800,000, against COP 6,080,000 in May, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Apulo listings average 4.76 stars, and 33% 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 11,030,000 a month, against COP 5,750,000 for the average one.

Occupancy

What Is the Airbnb Occupancy Rate in Apulo?

Apulo listings were booked on 23% of the nights they were open over the past year, 9 percentage points below the RAP (Especial) Central average (32%) and 10 points below the Colombia average (33%). In a typical year, occupancy climbs to 35% in December and falls to 18% in May.

The busiest tenth of listings are booked about 4.4 times as often as the bottom quarter.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) are booked 52%+ of open nights, 32 points above the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) fill 36% or more, roughly two and a half nights a week.
  • Typical properties (median) fill about 20% of open nights.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) fill 12% or less, less than one night a week.

December is usually the busiest month in Apulo, May the quietest

The 12-month rate of 23% 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 Apulo?

The average nightly rate in Apulo, known as ADR (average daily rate), was COP 1,034,353 over the past year, about 3.4 times the RAP (Especial) Central average of COP 307,000 and about three times the Colombia average of COP 353,000. In a typical year, rates peak in December at about COP 1,060,000 and bottom out in September at about COP 893,000.

The top 10% charge about 2.8 times the rate of the bottom quarter.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) charge COP 1,680,000+ a night, about 1.6 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) charge COP 1,380,000 or more, about COP 350,000 above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) charge about COP 1,030,000 a night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) charge COP 598,000 or less, about 58% of the median.

December rates run 18% above September's

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

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, COP 973,000. The 12-month ADR of COP 1,034,353 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 Apulo?

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 Apulo it averaged COP 256,000 over the past year, from about COP 196,000 in a typical May to about COP 445,000 in a typical December.

Per open night, by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn COP 504,000+ per open night, about 2.5 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn COP 387,000 or more, about COP 190,000 a night above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about COP 200,000 per open night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn COP 104,000 or less, about half of the median.

December RevPAR is about 2.3 times May's
