Profit
Is an Airbnb in Nesslau Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Nesslau Airbnb took in CHF 18,817 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about CHF 970 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 1,480 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the CHF 3,020 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about CHF 1,220 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about CHF 830 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 Nesslau's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Nesslau listings are booked on 61% or more of their nights, against 37% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of CHF 120 adds about CHF 1,180 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge CHF 150 a night or more, against a median of CHF 120. 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 1,580 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about CHF 3,130, against CHF 1,110 in November, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Nesslau listings average 4.89 stars, and 52% 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 2,380 a month, against CHF 1,570 for the average one.
