Profit
Is an Airbnb in San Juan del Sur (Municipio) Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average San Juan del Sur (Municipio) Airbnb took in C$614,385 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about C$36,900 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 C$84,300 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the C$24,400 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about C$39,000 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about C$32,000 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.

- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, March brings the average listing about C$94,000, against C$50,300 in October, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
