Profit
Is an Airbnb in Foxton Beach Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Foxton Beach Airbnb took in NZ$20,211 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about NZ$1,120 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 NZ$1,830 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the NZ$1,710 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about NZ$1,260 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about NZ$960 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 Foxton Beach's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Foxton Beach listings are booked on 50% or more of their nights, against 29% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of NZ$230 adds about NZ$2,290 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge NZ$335 a night or more, against a median of NZ$230. 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 NZ$1,850 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, January brings the average listing about NZ$4,710, against NZ$1,570 in August, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Foxton Beach listings average 4.84 stars, and 50% 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 NZ$2,740 a month, against NZ$1,680 for the average one.
