Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Nizwa?

Gross bookings per Nizwa listing averaged OMR 2,786 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Oman average: OMR 2,707), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

The average Nizwa listing brought in OMR 734 in July, its best month, and OMR 165 in September, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 38% 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 four times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn OMR 913+ a month, about 3.7 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn OMR 475 or more, roughly OMR 230 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about OMR 247 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn OMR 117 or less, about half 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.

Nizwa Airbnb Data by Month

Latest 12 months in the September 2026 data. September's figures are still coming in, so the rows run to August.

July 2026 led on revenue. Nightly rates peaked in August 2026 and bookings in January 2026, so the best-paying month is not always the busiest or the priciest.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Nizwa Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Nizwa Airbnb took in OMR 2,786 in the 12 months to September 2026, an average that counts every active listing, including those open only part of the year. A listing in the top quarter took in about OMR 5,340, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about OMR 330 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money.

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.

Estimate Your Own Nizwa Airbnb Profit

The estimate starts from Nizwa's average listing, run by its owner. Change how the listing performs, who runs it and who cleans to see what is left for the mortgage or rent.

How Nizwa's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Nizwa listings are booked on 45% or more of their nights, against 23% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of OMR 36 adds about OMR 364 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge OMR 57 a night or more, against a median of OMR 36. 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 OMR 270 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. July brought the average listing about OMR 734, against OMR 165 in September, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Nizwa listings average 4.67 stars, and 17% 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 OMR 450 a month, against OMR 230 for the average one.

Occupancy

What Is the Airbnb Occupancy Rate in Nizwa?

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) are booked 59%+ of open nights, 36 points above the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) fill 45% or more, roughly three nights a week.
  • Typical properties (median) fill about 23% of open nights.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) fill 11% or less, less than one night a week.

What Is the RevPAR for Airbnb in Nizwa?

RevPAR, or revenue per available night, divides a listing's income by every night it was open to book, so it rises with both price and bookings. In Nizwa it averaged OMR 12 over the past year, from about OMR 6 in September to about OMR 24 in July.

A small group of listings earns several times more per open night than the rest.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn OMR 25+ per open night, about 3.4 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn OMR 13 or more, about OMR 6 a night above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about OMR 7 per open night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn OMR 5 or less, about 62% of the median.

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Nizwa

None of the 52 active listings in Nizwa display a registration, permit or license number. That doesn't mean no rules apply: some places don't ask hosts to show a number on the listing, and listing data doesn't capture every scheme.

Registration, permit, zoning and tourist-tax rules vary by address and change often, so confirm them with the local authority before buying or listing in Nizwa.

FAQ

Nizwa Airbnb FAQ

How much do Airbnb hosts make in Nizwa?

An active Nizwa Airbnb grossed OMR 2,786 on average in the 12 months to September 2026, according to AirROI's tracking of 52 active listings. That is before cleaning, management, taxes and financing. Busier, better-run listings do far better: the top quarter took in OMR 475 or more in a typical month.

How much can I make on Airbnb in Nizwa?

It depends most on the home's size, location and how it's run. The middle half of Nizwa listings earn between OMR 117 and OMR 475 in a typical month, and the top tenth OMR 913 or more. For one home, enter its address and bedroom count in the Airbnb income calculator: it compares the home with similar listings nearby.

What is the average Airbnb occupancy rate in Nizwa?

Listings in Nizwa were booked on 29% of available nights over the past year. That compares with 33% for the national average. January was the busiest month.

How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Nizwa?

None of the active Nizwa 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 Nizwa?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Nizwa Airbnb grossed OMR 2,786 in the 12 months to September 2026, in line with the national average, counting listings open only part of the year. A listing at the top-quarter mark, run by its owner with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, has about OMR 330 a month left before the mortgage or rent, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit.
