How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Lomé?
Gross bookings per Lomé listing averaged F CFA 1,755,564 over the 12 months to October 2026, before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Lomé listing brings in F CFA 390,000 in August, its best month, and F CFA 246,000 in November, its slowest. July runs within 1% of August, so either can come out on top in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 30% 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 4.4 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn F CFA 709,000+ a month, about 3.1 times the typical property.
- Strong performers (top 25%) earn F CFA 427,000 or more, roughly F CFA 200,000 a month above the median.
- Typical properties (median) earn about F CFA 226,000 a month.
- Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn F CFA 96,300 or less, about 43% 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.

Profit
Is an Airbnb in Lomé Profitable?
Yes, as extra income from a home or room you already have. The average Lomé Airbnb took in F CFA 1,755,564 in the 12 months to October 2026, counting listings open only part of the year, and a listing in the top quarter, run by its owner at everyday costs, keeps about F CFA 196,000 a month after running costs.
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 Lomé's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Lomé listings are booked on 52% or more of their nights, against 29% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of F CFA 23,500 adds about F CFA 235,000 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge F CFA 34,900 a night or more, against a median of F CFA 23,500. 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 F CFA 167,000 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, August brings the average listing about F CFA 390,000, against F CFA 246,000 in November, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Lomé listings average 4.71 stars, and 20% 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 F CFA 276,000 a month, against F CFA 146,000 for the average one.
