Timing matters: in April, usually the best month, the average listing earns about twice as much as in September, usually the slowest.
With 75 active listings, Celestún is the 12th-largest of 33 Yucatán markets AirROI tracks. From a year earlier, average revenue rose 15% while the number of active listings grew 39%.

Gross bookings per Celestún listing averaged MX$171,042 over the 12 months to October 2026 (Yucatán average: MX$184,687), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Celestún listing brings in MX$24,100 in April, its best month, and MX$11,800 in September, its slowest. July runs within 1% of April, so either can come out on top in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 31% 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 5.1 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.

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, MX$19,600. Each point is one month as recorded, averaged over the listings active in it. The best and slowest months in the text average each calendar month over the past two years, so they can differ from the highest and lowest points here.
Latest 12 months in the October 2026 data. October's figures are still coming in, so the rows run to September.
July 2026 led on revenue. Nightly rates peaked in May 2026 and bookings in April 2026, so the best-paying month is not always the busiest or the priciest. Across the past two years, April is usually the strongest month.

Profit
Yes, when it's run well. The average Celestún Airbnb took in MX$171,042 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about MX$10,100 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 MX$23,400 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the MX$6,500 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about MX$10,600 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about MX$8,700 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.
