Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Malongane?

Gross bookings per Malongane listing averaged MZN 1,105,281 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Maputo Province average: MZN 896,140), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Malongane listing brings in MZN 233,000 in December, its best month, and MZN 96,400 in May, 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 4.9 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn MZN 391,000+ a month, about 3.8 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn MZN 216,000 or more, roughly MZN 110,000 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about MZN 103,000 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn MZN 43,200 or less, about 42% 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 2.4 times what May does

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Malongane Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Malongane Airbnb took in MZN 1,105,281 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about MZN 70,000 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 MZN 147,000 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the MZN 27,000 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about MZN 72,000 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about MZN 61,000 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.

How Malongane's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Malongane listings are booked on 46% or more of their nights, against 26% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of MZN 11,400 adds about MZN 114,000 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge MZN 18,800 a night or more, against a median of MZN 11,400. 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 MZN 108,000 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, December brings the average listing about MZN 233,000, against MZN 96,400 in May, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Malongane listings average 4.73 stars, and 28% 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 MZN 193,000 a month, against MZN 92,000 for the average one.

Listings in Malongane were booked on 28% of available nights over the past year. That compares with 25% for the Maputo Province average. December is usually the busiest month.

How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Malongane?

The average booked night in Malongane cost MZN 14,758 before fees. Half of listings charge between MZN 7,755 and MZN 18,800, so bedroom count and location move the price more than the average suggests.

Do you need a permit for an Airbnb in Malongane?

None of the active Malongane listings display a registration, permit or license number. That doesn't mean no rules apply, so confirm registration, permit and tourist-tax rules with the local authority before buying.

Is Airbnb profitable in Malongane?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Malongane Airbnb grossed MZN 1,105,281 in the 12 months to September 2026, 23% above the Maputo Province average of MZN 896,140. Run by its owner, with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, MZN 836,281 a year (about MZN 70,000 a month) is left before the mortgage or rent. A home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit, and a listing at the top-quarter mark leaves about MZN 147,000 a month. Check a specific home in the Airbnb estimator.
