Profit
Yes, when it's run well. The average San Nicola Arcella Airbnb took in €5,574 in the 12 months to September 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 €10,720, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about €610 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.
