Profit
Is an Airbnb in Dawhenya Profitable?
Yes, as extra income from a home or room you already have. The average Dawhenya Airbnb took in GH₵34,213 in the 12 months to April 2025, counting listings open only part of the year, and a listing in the top quarter, run by its owner at everyday costs, keeps about GH₵4,150 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 Dawhenya's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Dawhenya listings are booked on 23% or more of their nights, against 19% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of GH₵410 adds about GH₵4,120 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge GH₵635 a night or more, against a median of GH₵410. 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 GH₵3,420 a year.
- Open for the busy months. October brought the average listing about GH₵54,900, against GH₵1,740 in December, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
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 GH₵5,630 a month, against GH₵2,850 for the average one.
