Profit
Is an Airbnb in الملسن Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average الملسن Airbnb took in SAR 17,324 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 SAR 30,430, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about SAR 1,870 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 الملسن's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of الملسن listings are booked on 19% or more of their nights, against 13% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of SAR 235 adds about SAR 2,360 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge SAR 355 a night or more, against a median of SAR 235. 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 SAR 1,730 a year.
- Open for the busy months. August brought the average listing about SAR 12,200, against SAR 1,370 in February, 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 SAR 2,540 a month, against SAR 1,440 for the average one.
