Profit
Yes, when it's run well. The average Ocho Rios Airbnb took in JMD 2,409,400 in the 12 months to August 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about JMD 140,000 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 259,000 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the JMD 190,000 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about JMD 156,000 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about JMD 121,000 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.

AirROI refreshes them monthly from listing-level booking and calendar data covering 20+ million properties worldwide. AirROI measures bookings in US dollars; this page shows them in Jamaican dollars at JMD 158 per US$, the typical rate from October 2025 to September 2026. Annual revenue averages every listing active during the period, including those listed for only part of it; monthly figures average the listings active in each month; the tier lists show the spread. Neighborhood descriptions are AI-assisted. See the methodology for definitions.
