Gross bookings per Sfântu Gheorghe listing averaged lei 15,970 over the 12 months to October 2026 (Romania average: lei 34,324), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Sfântu Gheorghe listing brings in lei 4,770 in August, its best month, and lei 1,560 in February, its slowest. March runs within 2% of February, so either can be the slowest in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 39% 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 3.5 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, as extra income from a home or room you already have. The average Sfântu Gheorghe Airbnb took in lei 15,970 in the 12 months to October 2026, counting listings open only part of the year, and a listing in the top quarter, run by its owner at everyday costs, keeps about lei 1,550 a month after running costs.
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.
