Profit
Is an Airbnb in Río Indio Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Río Indio Airbnb took in MX$65,604 in the 12 months to March 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 MX$136,090, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about MX$8,370 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 Río Indio's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Río Indio listings are booked on 28% or more of their nights, against 18% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of MX$2,190 adds about MX$21,900 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge MX$3,840 a night or more, against a median of MX$2,190. 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 MX$6,110 a year.
- Open for the busy months. May brought the average listing about MX$21,300, against MX$5,530 in September, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Río Indio listings average 4.80 stars, and 11% 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 MX$11,340 a month, against MX$5,470 for the average one.
