Profit
Is an Airbnb in Ambatoloaka Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Ambatoloaka Airbnb took in Ar 20,290,870 in the 12 months to May 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 Ar 47,690,000, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about Ar 3,170,000 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.
