Profit
Is an Airbnb in Castro-Urdiales Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Castro-Urdiales Airbnb took in €14,605 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about €890 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 €1,380 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the €760 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about €950 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about €770 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.

- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Castro-Urdiales listings are booked on 57% or more of their nights, against 35% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of €130 adds about €1,280 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge €175 a night or more, against a median of €130.

- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, August brings the average listing about €4,020, against €775 in January, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Castro-Urdiales listings average 4.72 stars, and 19% 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 €1,870 a month, against €1,220 for the average one.
