How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Distrito San Carlos?
Gross bookings per Distrito San Carlos listing averaged $14,967 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Panamá Oeste average: $12,932), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Distrito San Carlos listing brings in $2,560 in February, its best month, and $1,310 in September, its slowest.

In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 5.1 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $4,780+ a month, about four times the typical property.

Profit
Is an Airbnb in Distrito San Carlos Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Distrito San Carlos Airbnb took in $14,967 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $850 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 $1,870 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the $810 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $920 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $730 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 Distrito San Carlos's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Distrito San Carlos listings are booked on 44% or more of their nights, against 23% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $160 adds about $1,620 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $250 a night or more, against a median of $160. 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 $1,420 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, February brings the average listing about $2,560, against $1,310 in September, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Distrito San Carlos listings average 4.78 stars, and 37% 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 $2,710 a month, against $1,250 for the average one.
