Gross bookings per Mangalia listing averaged lei 14,793 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Constanța average: lei 22,346), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Mangalia listing brings in lei 6,070 in July, its best month, and lei 1,660 in November, its slowest. August runs within 1% of July, so either can come out on top in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 41% 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 4.6 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.

Profit
Yes, when it's run well. The average Mangalia Airbnb took in lei 14,793 in the 12 months to September 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 lei 33,870, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about lei 2,190 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.
