How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Lucea?
Gross bookings per Lucea listing averaged JMD 1,840,742 over the 12 months to October 2026 (Jamaica average: JMD 2,477,262), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Lucea listing brings in JMD 305,000 in December, its best month, and JMD 201,000 in May, its slowest. August runs within 3% of December, so either can come out on top in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 29% 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 3.2 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn JMD 466,000+ a month, about 2.3 times the typical property.
- Strong performers (top 25%) earn JMD 318,000 or more, roughly JMD 110,000 a month above the median.
- Typical properties (median) earn about JMD 205,000 a month.
- Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn JMD 96,400 or less, about half 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.

Profit
Is an Airbnb in Lucea Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Lucea Airbnb took in JMD 1,840,742 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about JMD 104,000 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 JMD 162,000 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the JMD 127,000 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about JMD 114,000 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about JMD 90,000 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 Lucea's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Lucea listings are booked on 49% or more of their nights, against 31% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of JMD 19,500 adds about JMD 195,000 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge JMD 23,400 a night or more, against a median of JMD 19,500. 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 JMD 171,000 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, December brings the average listing about JMD 305,000, against JMD 201,000 in May, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Lucea listings average 4.86 stars, and 54% 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 JMD 238,000 a month, against JMD 153,000 for the average one.
