Profit
Is an Airbnb in Larne Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Larne Airbnb took in £12,463 in the 12 months to August 2025, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about £760 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 £1,060 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 Larne's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Larne listings are booked on 69% or more of their nights, against 43% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of £80 adds about £800 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge £115 a night or more, against a median of £80. 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 £1,250 a year.
- Open for the busy months. July brought the average listing about £2,370, against £727 in November, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
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 £1,440 a month, against £1,040 for the average one.
