Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Saanen?

Gross bookings per Saanen listing averaged CHF 23,190 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Bern average: CHF 38,045), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Saanen listing brings in CHF 5,890 in February, its best month, and CHF 1,680 in November, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 40% 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 3.6 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn CHF 6,580+ a month, about 2.6 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn CHF 4,460 or more, roughly CHF 2,000 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about CHF 2,510 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn CHF 1,230 or less, about half 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.

February earns about 3.5 times what November does

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, CHF 3,230. 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.

Averages per active listing in each month. Highlighted: the highest-revenue month of the 12. RevPAR is the month's revenue spread over its nights, booked or not. Booking lead time is the days between booking and check-in, and length of stay the nights per booking, for stays in that month.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Saanen Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Saanen Airbnb took in CHF 23,190 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about CHF 1,280 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 CHF 2,290 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the CHF 2,540 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about CHF 1,490 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about CHF 1,100 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 Saanen's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Saanen listings are booked on 59% or more of their nights, against 34% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of CHF 275 adds about CHF 2,750 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge CHF 485 a night or more, against a median of CHF 275. 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 CHF 2,070 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, February brings the average listing about CHF 5,890, against CHF 1,680 in November, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Saanen listings average 4.88 stars, and 35% 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 CHF 3,430 a month, against CHF 1,930 for the average one.

The busiest tenth of listings are booked about 5.2 times as often as the bottom quarter.

  • Typical properties (median) fill about 34% of open nights.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) fill 15% or less, under two nights a week.

Prices span a wide range: the top 10% charge about 4.3 times the rate of the bottom quarter.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) charge CHF 760+ a night, about 2.8 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) charge CHF 485 or more, about CHF 210 above the median.

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

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, CHF 409. The 12-month ADR of CHF 386 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 Saanen?

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 Saanen it averaged CHF 112 over the past year, from about CHF 56 in a typical November to about CHF 210 in a typical February.

Per open night, by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn CHF 215+ per open night, about 2.6 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn CHF 138 or more, about CHF 55 a night above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about CHF 82 per open night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn CHF 52 or less, about two-thirds of the median.

February RevPAR is about 3.8 times November's

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Saanen

None of the 165 active listings in Saanen display a registration, permit or license number. That doesn't mean no rules apply: some places don't ask hosts to show a number on the listing, and listing data doesn't capture every scheme.

Registration, permit, zoning and tourist-tax rules vary by address and change often, so confirm them with the local authority before buying or listing in Saanen.

How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Saanen?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Saanen Airbnb grossed CHF 23,190 in the 12 months to September 2026, 39% below the Bern average of CHF 38,045.
