Revenue
How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Bucaramanga?
Gross bookings per Bucaramanga listing averaged COP 13,809,486 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Santander average: COP 15,490,396), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Bucaramanga listing brings in COP 2,390,000 in December, its best month, and COP 1,550,000 in February, its slowest. April runs within 1% of February, so either can be the slowest in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 30% 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 4.3 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn COP 4,090,000+ a month, about 2.8 times the typical property.
- Strong performers (top 25%) earn COP 2,680,000 or more, roughly COP 1,200,000 a month above the median.
- Typical properties (median) earn about COP 1,450,000 a month.
- Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn COP 618,000 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 1.5 times what February does

Bucaramanga Airbnb Data by Month
Latest 12 months in the September 2026 data. September's figures are still coming in, so the rows run to August.

Profit
Is an Airbnb in Bucaramanga Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Bucaramanga Airbnb took in COP 13,809,486 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 25,530,000, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about COP 1,490,000 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 Bucaramanga's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Bucaramanga listings are booked on 59% or more of their nights, against 34% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of COP 127,000 adds about COP 1,270,000 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge COP 174,000 a night or more, against a median of COP 127,000. 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 1,290,000 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, December brings the average listing about COP 2,390,000, against COP 1,550,000 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Bucaramanga listings average 4.75 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 2,130,000 a month, against COP 1,150,000 for the average one.

How much can I make on Airbnb in Bucaramanga?

The middle half of Bucaramanga listings earn between COP 618,000 and COP 2,680,000 in a typical month, and the top tenth COP 4,090,000 or more. For one home, enter its address and bedroom count in the Airbnb income calculator: it compares the home with similar listings nearby.
What is the average Airbnb occupancy rate in Bucaramanga?
Listings in Bucaramanga were booked on 35% of available nights over the past year. That compares with 28% for the Santander average. December is usually the busiest month.
How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Bucaramanga?
The average booked night in Bucaramanga cost COP 154,062 before fees. Half of listings charge between COP 90,300 and COP 174,000, so bedroom count and location move the price more than the average suggests.
Do you need a permit for an Airbnb in Bucaramanga?
In Bucaramanga, 97% of active listings display a registration, permit or license number. The share shows what hosts display, not what the rules allow, so confirm registration, permit and tourist-tax rules with the local authority before buying.
Is Airbnb profitable in Bucaramanga?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Bucaramanga Airbnb grossed COP 13,809,486 in the 12 months to September 2026, 11% below the Santander average of COP 15,490,396, counting listings open only part of the year. A listing at the top-quarter mark, run by its owner with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, has about COP 1,490,000 a month left before the mortgage or rent, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit.
