Profit
Is an Airbnb in Laugarvatn Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Laugarvatn Airbnb took in kr 5,190,547 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about kr 295,000 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 kr 519,000 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the kr 305,000 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about kr 320,000 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about kr 254,000 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 Laugarvatn's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Laugarvatn listings are booked on 60% or more of their nights, against 38% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of kr 33,700 adds about kr 337,000 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge kr 44,600 a night or more, against a median of kr 33,700. 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 kr 489,000 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about kr 1,080,000, against kr 359,000 in November, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Laugarvatn listings average 4.84 stars, and 48% 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 kr 754,000 a month, against kr 433,000 for the average one.
