Gross bookings per Yucay listing averaged PEN 5,431 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Cusco average: PEN 16,706), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Yucay listing brings in PEN 2,070 in July, its best month, and PEN 607 in October, its slowest. November runs within 2% of October, so either can be the slowest in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 37% 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 8.2 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
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.
July earns about 3.4 times what October does

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 Yucay listing earns about PEN 609 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
Yes, as extra income from a home or room you already have. The average Yucay Airbnb took in PEN 5,431 in the 12 months to September 2026, counting listings open only part of the year, and a listing in the top quarter, run by its owner at everyday costs, keeps about PEN 860 a month after running costs.
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.

The 12-month rate of 21% averages each listing's whole year, slow months included; each month here counts only the listings booked in it.
Nightly rates
The average nightly rate in Yucay, known as ADR (average daily rate), was PEN 196 over the past year, about 12% above the Cusco average of PEN 175 and about 20% below the Peru average of PEN 245. Averaged month by month over the past two years, rates peak in June and August at about PEN 185 and bottom out in January and March at about PEN 160.

August rates run 13% above March's
Average nightly rate (ADR), by month, September 2024 to August 2026
The dashed line is the average of the months shown, PEN 171. The 12-month ADR of PEN 196 averages each listing's own rate across its whole year; the monthly points average listings month by month, so the two differ.
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 Yucay it averaged PEN 43 over the past year, from about PEN 20 in a typical October to about PEN 67 in a typical July.
A small group of listings earns several times more per open night than the rest.

Seasonality
With only 32 active listings, the monthly pattern in Yucay is noisy, since a few long or pricey stays can lift a month; revenue has tended to peak in July and bottom out in October.
