Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in El Chirú?

Gross bookings per El Chirú listing averaged $20,525 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Panama average: $14,386), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average El Chirú listing brings in $4,130 in January, its best month, and $1,520 in October, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 33% 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 3.5 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $5,710+ a month, about three times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $3,380 or more, roughly $1,400 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $1,950 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $939 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.

January earns about 2.7 times what October does

Average revenue per active listing, by month, September 2024 to August 2026

Each point is one month as recorded, averaged over the listings active in it. The best and slowest months in the text average each calendar month over the past two years, so they can differ from the highest and lowest points here.

El Chirú 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.

January 2026 led on revenue. Nightly rates peaked in December 2025 and bookings in February 2026, so the best-paying month is not always the busiest or the priciest.

Averages per active listing in each month. Highlighted: the highest-revenue month of the 12. RevPAR is the month's revenue spread over its nights, booked or not. Booking lead time is the days between booking and check-in, and length of stay the nights per booking, for stays in that month.

The typical El Chirú listing earns about $1,950 a month, but one property can land well above or below that. The Airbnb estimator gives a range for a specific address, built from the comparable listings around it.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in El Chirú Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average El Chirú Airbnb took in $20,525 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,180 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 $2,060 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $1,040 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $1,260 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,010 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 El Chirú's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of El Chirú listings are booked on 45% or more of their nights, against 24% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $260 adds about $2,600 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $395 a night or more, against a median of $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 $1,950 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, January brings the average listing about $4,130, against $1,520 in October, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. El Chirú listings average 4.79 stars, and 40% 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 $2,960 a month, against $1,710 for the average one.
