Gross bookings per Colán listing averaged PEN 12,099 over the 12 months to October 2026 (Piura average: PEN 32,321), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Colán listing brings in PEN 3,450 in February, its best month, and PEN 1,160 in September, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 34% 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 3.8 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.
February earns about three times what September does

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, PEN 2,250. 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.
Latest 12 months in the October 2026 data. October's figures are still coming in, so the rows run to September.
February 2026 led on revenue. Nightly rates peaked in April 2026 and bookings in December 2025, 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 Colán listing earns about PEN 1,350 a month, but one property can land well above or below that. The free Airbnb calculator gives a range for a specific address, built from the comparable listings around it.
Profit
Yes, when it's run well. The average Colán Airbnb took in PEN 12,099 in the 12 months to October 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 PEN 24,240, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about PEN 1,430 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.
