Profit
Is an Airbnb in Reykjanesbær Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Reykjanesbær Airbnb took in kr 3,114,370 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about kr 183,000 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 354,000 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the kr 131,000 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about kr 194,000 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about kr 159,000 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 Reykjanesbær's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Reykjanesbær listings are booked on 61% or more of their nights, against 36% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of kr 27,000 adds about kr 270,000 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge kr 40,900 a night or more, against a median of kr 27,000.

- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about kr 733,000, against kr 218,000 in January, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Reykjanesbær listings average 4.72 stars, and 38% 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 496,000 a month, against kr 260,000 for the average one.
