The average Zaaitriye listing brought in $1,390 in May, its best month, and $215 in March, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 46% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

  • Typical properties (median) earn about $573 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $220 or less, about 38% 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 Zaaitriye Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Zaaitriye Airbnb took in $4,335 in the 12 months to April 2025, an average that counts every active listing, including those open only part of the year. A listing in the top quarter took in about $7,440, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $460 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 Zaaitriye's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Zaaitriye listings are booked on 42% or more of their nights, against 21% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $63 adds about $633 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $78 a night or more, against a median of $63. 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 $430 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. May brought the average listing about $1,390, against $215 in March, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.

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 $620 a month, against $360 for the average one.
