Profit
Is an Airbnb in Pāʻea Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Pāʻea Airbnb took in €33,432 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about €1,840 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 €3,270 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the €2,910 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about €2,080 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about €1,590 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 Pāʻea's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Pāʻea listings are booked on 76% or more of their nights, against 58% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of €155 adds about €1,530 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge €250 a night or more, against a median of €155. 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 €3,050 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about €4,430, against €2,270 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Pāʻea listings average 4.91 stars, and 74% 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 €4,890 a month, against €2,790 for the average one.

What is the average Airbnb occupancy rate in Pāʻea?
Listings in Pāʻea were booked on 54% of available nights over the past year. That compares with 45% for the French Polynesia average. July is usually the busiest month.
How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Pāʻea?
The average booked night in Pāʻea cost €205 before fees. Half of listings charge between €87 and €250, so bedroom count and location move the price more than the average suggests.
Do you need a permit for an Airbnb in Pāʻea?
All active Pāʻea listings display a registration, permit or license number. The share shows what hosts display, not what the rules allow, so confirm registration, permit and tourist-tax rules with the local authority before buying.
Is Airbnb profitable in Pāʻea?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Pāʻea Airbnb grossed €33,432 in the 12 months to September 2026, 24% above the French Polynesia average of €26,977. Run by its owner, with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, €22,102 a year (about €1,840 a month) is left before the mortgage or rent. A home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit, and a listing at the top-quarter mark leaves about €3,270 a month. Check a specific home in the Airbnb estimator.
