Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Serrekunda?

Gross bookings per Serrekunda listing averaged GMD 259,663 over the 12 months to October 2026 (Gambia average: GMD 336,427), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Serrekunda listing brings in GMD 56,400 in January, its best month, and GMD 24,100 in October, 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 5.4 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn GMD 138,000+ a month, about 4.6 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn GMD 64,800 or more, roughly GMD 35,000 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about GMD 29,700 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn GMD 11,900 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.

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, GMD 40,100. 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.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Serrekunda Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Serrekunda Airbnb took in GMD 259,663 in the 12 months to October 2026, an average that counts every active listing, including those open only part of the year. A listing in the top quarter took in about GMD 565,700, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about GMD 34,000 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money.

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 Serrekunda's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Serrekunda listings are booked on 47% or more of their nights, against 29% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of GMD 3,145 adds about GMD 31,400 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge GMD 5,460 a night or more, against a median of GMD 3,145. 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 GMD 24,800 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, January brings the average listing about GMD 56,400, against GMD 24,100 in October, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Serrekunda listings average 4.68 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 GMD 47,100 a month, against GMD 21,600 for the average one.

  • Strong performers (top 25%) charge GMD 5,460 or more, about GMD 2,300 above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) charge about GMD 3,145 a night.

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

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, GMD 4,010. The 12-month ADR of GMD 4,709 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 Serrekunda?

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 Serrekunda it averaged GMD 1,570 over the past year, from about GMD 776 in a typical October to about GMD 1,820 in a typical January.

A small group of listings earns several times more per open night than the rest.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn GMD 3,830+ per open night, about 3.8 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn GMD 2,060 or more, about GMD 1,100 a night above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about GMD 1,010 per open night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn GMD 528 or less, about half of the median.

January RevPAR is about 2.3 times October's

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Serrekunda

None of the 97 active listings in Serrekunda 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 Serrekunda.
