Profit
Is an Airbnb in Kampung Kubang Gajah Profitable?
Yes, as extra income from a home or room you already have. The average Kampung Kubang Gajah Airbnb took in RM 13,307 in the 12 months to February 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 RM 1,280 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.

- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Kampung Kubang Gajah listings are booked on 29% or more of their nights, against 19% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of RM 180 adds about RM 1,800 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge RM 205 a night or more, against a median of RM 180. That is a separate ranking from the busiest quarter, so the two marks don't multiply into one listing's takings.

- Open for the busy months. September brought the average listing about RM 2,270, against RM 618 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 RM 1,740 a month, against RM 1,110 for the average one.
