Profit
Is an Airbnb in Arieșeni Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Arieșeni Airbnb took in lei 23,624 in the 12 months to May 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 lei 34,090, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about lei 2,090 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 Arieșeni's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Arieșeni listings are booked on 29% or more of their nights, against 23% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of lei 335 adds about lei 3,370 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge lei 500 a night or more, against a median of lei 335. 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 lei 2,360 a year.
- Open for the busy months. August brought the average listing about lei 9,030, against lei 598 in June, 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 lei 2,840 a month, against lei 1,970 for the average one.
