Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Habarana?

Gross bookings per Habarana listing averaged Rs 2,605,633 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Sri Lanka average: Rs 2,483,754), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Habarana listing brings in Rs 993,000 in July, its best month, and Rs 170,000 in September, its slowest. May runs within 4% of September, so either can be the slowest in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 50% 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 3.9 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn Rs 808,000+ a month, about 4.8 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn Rs 295,000 or more, roughly Rs 130,000 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about Rs 169,000 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn Rs 75,400 or less, about 45% of the median.

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.

July earns about 5.9 times what September does

Average revenue per active listing, by month, September 2024 to August 2026

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, Rs 267,000. Each point is one month as recorded, averaged over the listings active in it. The best and slowest months in the text average each calendar month over the past two years, so they can differ from the highest and lowest points here.

Habarana Airbnb Data by Month

Latest 12 months in the September 2026 data. September's figures are still coming in, so the rows run to August.

July 2026 led on revenue. Nightly rates peaked in August 2026 and bookings in February 2026, so the best-paying month is not always the busiest or the priciest.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Habarana Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Habarana Airbnb took in Rs 2,605,633 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about Rs 165,000 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 Rs 290,000 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the Rs 26,000 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about Rs 167,000 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about Rs 143,000 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.

How Habarana's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Habarana listings are booked on 51% or more of their nights, against 27% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of Rs 12,700 adds about Rs 127,000 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge Rs 27,900 a night or more, against a median of Rs 12,700. 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 Rs 258,000 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about Rs 993,000, against Rs 170,000 in September, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Habarana listings average 4.76 stars, and 31% 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 Rs 379,000 a month, against Rs 217,000 for the average one.

Nightly rates

Prices span a wide range: the top 10% charge about 4.6 times the rate of the bottom quarter.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) charge Rs 42,000+ a night, about 3.3 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) charge Rs 27,900 or more, about Rs 15,000 above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) charge about Rs 12,700 a night.

August rates run 146% above November's

Average nightly rate (ADR), by month, September 2024 to August 2026

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, Rs 27,300. The 12-month ADR of Rs 34,157 averages each listing's own rate across its whole year; the monthly points average listings month by month, so the two differ.

What Is the RevPAR for Airbnb in Habarana?

RevPAR, or revenue per available night, divides a listing's income by every night it was open to book, so it rises with both price and bookings. In Habarana it averaged Rs 9,760 over the past year, from about Rs 5,640 in a typical May to about Rs 32,000 in a typical July.

Per open night, by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn Rs 14,800+ per open night, about 2.5 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn Rs 8,060 or more, about Rs 2,100 a night above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about Rs 5,950 per open night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn Rs 2,430 or less, about 41% of the median.

Permits
