Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Talamanca?

Gross bookings per Talamanca listing averaged ₡7,470,868 over the 12 months to October 2026 (Limón average: ₡8,135,512), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

The average Talamanca listing brought in ₡1,260,000 in June, its best month, and ₡683,000 in May, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 31% 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 5.1 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn ₡2,330,000+ a month, about 3.8 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn ₡1,290,000 or more, roughly ₡680,000 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about ₡613,000 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn ₡252,000 or less, about 41% 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.

June 2026 led on revenue. Nightly rates peaked in December 2025 and bookings in October 2025, so the best-paying month is not always the busiest or the priciest.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Talamanca Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Talamanca Airbnb took in ₡7,470,868 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about ₡427,000 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 ₡908,000 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the ₡423,000 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about ₡462,000 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about ₡368,000 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 Talamanca's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Talamanca listings are booked on 56% or more of their nights, against 32% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of ₡60,600 adds about ₡606,000 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge ₡104,000 a night or more, against a median of ₡60,600. 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 ₡705,000 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. June brought the average listing about ₡1,260,000, against ₡683,000 in May, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Talamanca listings average 4.75 stars, and 27% 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 ₡1,310,000 a month, against ₡623,000 for the average one.

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Talamanca
