Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Nueva Loja?

Gross bookings per Nueva Loja listing averaged $889 over the 12 months to October 2026 (Ecuador average: $4,659), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Nueva Loja listing brings in $299 in January, its best month, and $100 in November, its slowest. March runs within 2% of January, so either can come out on top in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 38% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

Across Nueva Loja's 23 active listings, monthly revenue by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $472+ a month, about 3.5 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $321 or more, roughly $190 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $135 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $62 or less, about 46% 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.

January earns about three times what November does

Nueva Loja 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.

January 2026 led on revenue. Nightly rates peaked in May 2026 and bookings in July 2026, so the best-paying month is not always the busiest or the priciest.

The typical Nueva Loja listing earns about $135 a month, but one property can land well above or below that. The Airbnb estimator gives a range for a specific address, built from the comparable listings around it.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Nueva Loja Profitable?

Yes, as extra income from a home or room you already have. The average Nueva Loja Airbnb took in $889 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 $130 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 Nueva Loja's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Nueva Loja listings are booked on 28% or more of their nights, against 12% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $30 adds about $301 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $42 a night or more, against a median of $30. 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 $90 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, January brings the average listing about $299, against $100 in November, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Nueva Loja listings average 4.81 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 $180 a month, against $70 for the average one.
