Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Portoviejo?

Gross bookings per Portoviejo listing averaged $2,435 over the 12 months to October 2026 (Manabí average: $5,184), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Portoviejo listing brings in $563 in December, its best month, and $285 in November, 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 $937+ a month, about 4.4 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $449 or more, roughly $240 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $213 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $102 or less, about half 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 twice what November does

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

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.

Portoviejo Airbnb Data by Month

Latest 12 months in the October 2026 data. October's figures are still coming in, so the rows run to September.

July 2026 led on revenue. Nightly rates peaked in May 2026 and bookings in June 2026, so the best-paying month is not always the busiest or the priciest. Across the past two years, December is usually the strongest month.

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 Portoviejo listing earns about $213 a month, but one property can land well above or below that. The Airbnb income calculator gives a range for a specific address, built from the comparable listings around it.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Portoviejo Profitable?

Yes, as extra income from a home or room you already have. The average Portoviejo Airbnb took in $2,435 in the 12 months to October 2026, counting listings open only part of the year, and a listing in the top quarter, run by its owner at everyday costs, keeps about $310 a month after running costs.

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 Portoviejo's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Portoviejo listings are booked on 32% or more of their nights, against 17% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $42 adds about $423 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $61 a night or more, against a median of $42. 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 $240 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, December brings the average listing about $563, against $285 in November, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Portoviejo listings average 4.86 stars, and 50% 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 $430 a month, against $200 for the average one.

Occupancy

What Is the Airbnb Occupancy Rate in Portoviejo?

Portoviejo listings were booked on 23% of the nights they were open over the past year, 2 percentage points above the Manabí average (21%) and 3 points below the Ecuador average (26%). In a typical year, occupancy stays within a narrow band, from 21% in September to 27% in December.

The busiest tenth of listings are booked about 7 times as often as the bottom quarter.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) are booked 56%+ of open nights, 39 points above the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) fill 32% or more, roughly two nights a week.
  • Typical properties (median) fill about 17% of open nights.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) fill 8% or less, less than one night a week.

December is usually the busiest month in Portoviejo, September the quietest

Nightly rates

How Much Does an Airbnb Cost per Night in Portoviejo?

The average nightly rate in Portoviejo, known as ADR (average daily rate), was $60 over the past year, about 43% below the Manabí average of $105 and about 25% below the Ecuador average of $80. In a typical year, rates peak in January at about $62 and bottom out in October at about $49.

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

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) charge $84+ a night, about twice the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) charge $61 or more, about $19 above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) charge about $42 a night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) charge $29 or less, about two-thirds of the median.

January rates run 26% above October's

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

The 12-month ADR of $60 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 Portoviejo?

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 Portoviejo it averaged $13 over the past year, from about $10 in a typical November to about $18 in a typical December.

Per open night, by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $23+ per open night, about three times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $16 or more, about $8 a night above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $8 per open night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $6 or less, about 71% of the median.

December RevPAR is about twice November's

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Portoviejo

None of the 110 active listings in Portoviejo display a registration, permit or license number. That doesn't mean no rules apply: some places don't ask hosts to show a number on the listing, and listing data doesn't capture every scheme.

Registration, permit, zoning and tourist-tax rules vary by address and change often, so confirm them with the local authority before buying or listing in Portoviejo.
