Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Puerto López?

Gross bookings per Puerto López listing averaged $2,605 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 Puerto López listing brings in $596 in August, its best month, and $228 in October, its slowest. November runs within 4% of October, so either can be the slowest in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 35% 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 five times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $923+ a month, about 3.9 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $483 or more, roughly $250 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $238 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $96 or less, about 40% 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.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Puerto López Profitable?

Yes, as extra income from a home or room you already have. The average Puerto López Airbnb took in $2,605 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 Puerto López's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Puerto López listings are booked on 27% or more of their nights, against 14% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $45 adds about $450 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $69 a night or more, against a median of $45. 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 $250 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, August brings the average listing about $596, against $228 in October, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Puerto López listings average 4.70 stars, and 23% 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 $440 a month, against $220 for the average one.

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

The 12-month ADR of $61 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 Puerto López?

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 Puerto López it averaged $12 over the past year, from about $7 in a typical October to about $19 in a typical August.

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Puerto López

None of the 156 active listings in Puerto López 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 Puerto López.
