How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Darien?
Gross bookings per Darien listing averaged COP 32,985,191 over the 12 months to October 2026 (Valle del Cauca average: COP 16,654,589), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
The average Darien listing brought in COP 7,750,000 in January, its best month, and COP 3,010,000 in September, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 35% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.
Across Darien's 23 active listings, monthly revenue by tier:
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn COP 13,200,000+ a month, about five times the typical property.
- Strong performers (top 25%) earn COP 7,270,000 or more, roughly COP 4,700,000 a month above the median.
- Typical properties (median) earn about COP 2,620,000 a month.
- Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn COP 937,000 or less, about a third 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.

Averages per active listing in each month. Highlighted: the highest-revenue month of the 12. RevPAR is the month's revenue spread over its nights, booked or not. Booking lead time is the days between booking and check-in, and length of stay the nights per booking, for stays in that month.
The typical Darien listing earns about COP 2,620,000 a month, but one property can land well above or below that. The Airbnb profit calculator gives a range for a specific address, built from the comparable listings around it.
Profit
Is an Airbnb in Darien Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Darien Airbnb took in COP 32,985,191 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about COP 1,920,000 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 5,410,000 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the COP 1,360,000 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about COP 2,040,000 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 Darien's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Darien listings are booked on 30% or more of their nights, against 17% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of COP 429,000 adds about COP 4,290,000 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge COP 840,000 a night or more, against a median of COP 429,000. 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 3,160,000 a year.
- Open for the busy months. January brought the average listing about COP 7,750,000, against COP 3,010,000 in September, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Darien listings average 4.76 stars, and 39% 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 7,630,000 a month, against COP 2,750,000 for the average one.
