Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Gateway?

Gross bookings per Gateway listing averaged $25,880 over the 12 months to April 2025 (Florida average: $39,250), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

The average Gateway listing brought in $6,230 in March, its best month, and $2,390 in July, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 34% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

Across Gateway's 21 active listings, monthly revenue by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $9,300+ a month, about 2.7 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $5,930 or more, roughly $2,400 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $3,510 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $2,450 or less, about two-thirds 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.

Booking lead time is the days between booking and check-in for stays in that month. *Apr 2025 is the latest month and looks incomplete: its occupancy sits well below the calendar months either side of it, as the latest month often does before late bookings are recorded. It may be revised and is not counted as a best or worst month.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Gateway Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Gateway Airbnb took in $25,880 in the 12 months to April 2025, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,570 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 $2,680 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 HOA or condo fees.

How Gateway's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Gateway listings are booked on 62% or more of their nights, against 32% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $190 adds about $1,890 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $250 a night or more, against a median of $190. 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 $2,590 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. March brought the average listing about $6,230, against $2,390 in July, 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 $3,650 a month, against $2,160 for the average one.
