Revenue
How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Ponta Delgada?
Gross bookings per Ponta Delgada listing averaged €20,510 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Azores average: €18,487), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Ponta Delgada listing brings in €4,980 in August, its best month, and €889 in December, its slowest. Both ends are close calls: August leads July by 1%, and December sits just 1% below January, so either pair can swap places in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 47% 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 2.7 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn €4,580+ a month, about 2.3 times the typical property.
- Strong performers (top 25%) earn €3,080 or more, roughly €1,100 a month above the median.
- Typical properties (median) earn about €1,980 a month.
- Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn €1,110 or less, about 56% of the median.

Profit
Is an Airbnb in Ponta Delgada Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Ponta Delgada Airbnb took in €20,510 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about €1,230 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 €1,920 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the €950 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about €1,300 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about €1,060 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 Ponta Delgada's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Ponta Delgada listings are booked on 68% or more of their nights, against 49% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of €125 adds about €1,260 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge €185 a night or more, against a median of €125. 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 €1,960 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, August brings the average listing about €4,980, against €889 in December, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Ponta Delgada listings average 4.78 stars, and 35% 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 €2,660 a month, against €1,710 for the average one.
