Revenue
Gross bookings per Sa Khu listing averaged ฿271,289 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Phuket average: ฿423,309), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
The average Sa Khu listing brought in ฿94,500 in January, its best month, and ฿24,100 in September, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 39% 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 3.7 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
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.

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.
The typical Sa Khu listing earns about ฿27,700 a month, but one property can land well above or below that. The Airbnb calculator gives a range for a specific address, built from the comparable listings around it.
Profit
Yes, when it's run well. The average Sa Khu Airbnb took in ฿271,289 in the 12 months to September 2026, an average that counts every active listing, including those open only part of the year. A listing in the top quarter took in about ฿533,900, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about ฿31,500 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.

Seasonality
Sa Khu has one high season, November through February, which makes it a highly seasonal market. Business is slowest from June to October and slows again in April. A listing earns about 2.2 times as much a month in December through February as in June through August.

Permits
None of the 183 active listings in Sa Khu 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 Sa Khu.

About six in ten Sa Khu listings charge a cleaning fee. The typical fee is ฿1,460, but a minority of much higher fees lifts the average to ฿3,307, so the median is the better guide. Spread over the average stay of 8.7 nights, that adds roughly ฿170 a night to what guests pay. For listings that charge one, cleaning fees make up about 5% of gross revenue.
Top earners
The top-grossing listing, a two-bedroom unit at ฿80,212 a night (about 10 times the ฿7,685 that puts a listing in the top 10% here), is left out below: a price like that usually means it covers several rooms or units, or that it is misrecorded. Leaving it out, the top earner in Sa Khu, a three-bedroom home, took in ฿2,720,000 over the past year, about 10 times the city's average of ฿271,000.

Yes, when it's run well. The average Sa Khu Airbnb grossed ฿271,289 in the 12 months to September 2026, 36% below the Phuket average of ฿423,309, counting listings open only part of the year. A listing at the top-quarter mark, run by its owner with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, has about ฿31,500 a month left before the mortgage or rent, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit.
