In a typical year, the average Ndenderu ward listing brings in KES 56,500 in July, its best month, and KES 37,400 in April, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 28% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn KES 116,000+ a month, about 4.2 times the typical property.

  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn KES 12,600 or less, about 46% of the median.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Ndenderu ward Profitable?

Yes, as extra income from a home or room you already have. The average Ndenderu ward Airbnb took in KES 242,755 in the 12 months to September 2026, counting listings open only part of the year, and a listing in the top quarter, run by its owner at everyday costs, keeps about KES 38,600 a month after running costs.

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 Ndenderu ward's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Ndenderu ward listings are booked on 50% or more of their nights, against 24% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of KES 3,935 adds about KES 39,300 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge KES 5,055 a night or more, against a median of KES 3,935. 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 KES 23,500 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about KES 56,500, against KES 37,400 in April, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Ndenderu ward listings average 4.78 stars, and 30% 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 KES 51,300 a month, against KES 20,200 for the average one.
