How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Ōtaki Beach?
Gross bookings per Ōtaki Beach listing averaged NZ$28,985 over the 12 months to October 2026 (Wellington average: NZ$29,579), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Ōtaki Beach listing brings in NZ$4,830 in January, its best month, and NZ$2,480 in November, its slowest. Both ends are close calls: January leads March by 1%, and November sits just 1% below August, so either pair can swap places in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 34% 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 2.8 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn NZ$7,110+ a month, about three times the typical property.
- Strong performers (top 25%) earn NZ$3,970 or more, roughly NZ$1,600 a month above the median.
- Typical properties (median) earn about NZ$2,410 a month.
- Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn NZ$1,420 or less, about 59% 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.

Profit
Is an Airbnb in Ōtaki Beach Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Ōtaki Beach Airbnb took in NZ$28,985 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about NZ$1,580 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$2,630 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the NZ$2,460 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about NZ$1,790 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about NZ$1,360 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 Ōtaki Beach's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Ōtaki Beach listings are booked on 54% or more of their nights, against 35% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of NZ$260 adds about NZ$2,580 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge NZ$335 a night or more, against a median of NZ$260. 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$2,650 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, January brings the average listing about NZ$4,830, against NZ$2,480 in November, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Ōtaki Beach listings average 4.87 stars, and 71% 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$3,980 a month, against NZ$2,420 for the average one.
