Gross bookings per Żebbuġ listing averaged €19,265 over the 12 months to June 2026 (Southern Region average: €14,669), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
The average Żebbuġ listing brought in €3,520 in July, its best month, and €1,380 in January, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 35% 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 4.2 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
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.

July led on revenue. Nightly rates peaked in May and bookings in August, so the best-paying month is not always the busiest or the priciest.

Averages per active listing in each month. Highlighted: the highest-revenue month. RevPAR is the month's revenue spread over its nights, booked or not. Booking lead time is the days between booking and check-in, and length of stay the nights per booking, for stays in that month. *Jun 2026 is the latest month and looks incomplete: its occupancy sits well below the calendar months either side of it, as the latest month often does before late bookings are recorded. It may be revised and is not counted as a best or worst month.

Profit
Yes, when it's run well. The average Żebbuġ Airbnb took in €19,265 in the 12 months to June 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about €1,100 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money. A listing in the top quarter leaves about €2,110 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the €1,810 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about €1,250 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about €950 a month.
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.
