Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Miri?

Gross bookings per Miri listing averaged RM 16,850 over the 12 months to October 2026 (Sarawak average: RM 18,746), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Miri listing brings in RM 3,010 in December, its best month, and RM 1,720 in October, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 30% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 4.4 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn RM 5,230+ a month, about three times the typical property.
Strong performers (top 25%) earn RM 3,420 or more, roughly RM 1,600 a month above the median.
Typical properties (median) earn about RM 1,780 a month.
Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn RM 768 or less, about 43% 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.

December earns about 1.8 times what October does

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Miri Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Miri Airbnb took in RM 16,850 in the 12 months to October 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 RM 32,360, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about RM 1,890 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 Miri's Top Earners Get There

More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Miri listings are booked on 38% or more of their nights, against 22% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of RM 265 adds about RM 2,640 in bookings.
Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge RM 340 a night or more, against a median of RM 265. 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 RM 1,580 a year.
Open for the busy months. In a typical year, December brings the average listing about RM 3,010, against RM 1,720 in October, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
Reviews that stand out. Miri listings average 4.65 stars, and 12% 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 RM 2,700 a month, against RM 1,400 for the average one.

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Miri

None of the 134 active listings in Miri 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.

Registration, permit, zoning and tourist-tax rules vary by address and change often, so confirm them with the local authority before buying or listing in Miri.

How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Miri?

Do you need a permit for an Airbnb in Miri?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Miri Airbnb grossed RM 16,850 in the 12 months to October 2026, 10% below the Sarawak average of RM 18,746, counting listings open only part of the year. A listing at the top-quarter mark, run by its owner with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, has about RM 1,890 a month left before the mortgage or rent, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit.
