Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in San Juan?

Gross bookings per San Juan listing averaged ₱422,757 over the 12 months to April 2025 (La Union average: ₱538,625), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

The average San Juan listing brought in ₱77,200 in June, its best month, and ₱29,700 in September, 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 four times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn ₱121,000+ a month, about 4.2 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn ₱61,300 or more, roughly ₱33,000 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about ₱28,800 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn ₱15,300 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.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in San Juan Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average San Juan Airbnb took in ₱422,757 in the 12 months to April 2025, an average that counts every active listing, including those open only part of the year. A listing in the top quarter took in about ₱900,400, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about ₱55,400 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.

How San Juan's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of San Juan listings are booked on 38% or more of their nights, against 22% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of ₱4,505 adds about ₱45,100 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge ₱6,960 a night or more, against a median of ₱4,505. 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 ₱42,300 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. June brought the average listing about ₱77,200, against ₱29,700 in September, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.

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 ₱75,000 a month, against ₱35,200 for the average one.
