Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Sarba?

Gross bookings per Sarba listing averaged $3,996 over the 12 months to April 2026 (Keserwan-Jbeil Governorate average: $6,455), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

The average Sarba listing brought in $1,190 in July, its best month, and $357 in February, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 40% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

Across Sarba's 18 active listings, monthly revenue by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $1,270+ a month, about 2.1 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $1,020 or more, roughly $430 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $592 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $325 or less, about 55% 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.

The typical Sarba listing earns about $592 a month, but one property can land well above or below that. The Airbnb revenue calculator gives a range for a specific address, built from the comparable listings around it.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Sarba Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Sarba Airbnb took in $3,996 in the 12 months to April 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 $6,870, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $430 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.

How Sarba's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Sarba listings are booked on 48% or more of their nights, against 28% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $81 adds about $807 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $100 a night or more, against a median of $81. 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 $380 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. July brought the average listing about $1,190, against $357 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Sarba listings average 4.71 stars, and 0% 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 $570 a month, against $330 for the average one.

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Sarba

None of the 18 active listings in Sarba display a registration, permit or license number. That doesn't mean no rules apply: some places don't ask hosts to show a number on the listing, and listing data doesn't capture every scheme.
