Profit
Is an Airbnb in Calima Lake Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Calima Lake Airbnb took in COP 30,545,218 in the 12 months to April 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about COP 1,910,000 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 3,950,000 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the COP 870,000 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about COP 1,980,000 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about COP 1,660,000 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 Calima Lake's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Calima Lake listings are booked on 28% or more of their nights, against 15% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of COP 796,000 adds about COP 7,960,000 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge COP 1,080,000 a night or more, against a median of COP 796,000. 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 2,970,000 a year.
- Open for the busy months. January brought the average listing about COP 6,430,000, against COP 2,410,000 in September, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Calima Lake listings average 4.67 stars, and 17% 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 5,210,000 a month, against COP 2,550,000 for the average one.
