Profit
Is an Airbnb in Marathon Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Marathon Airbnb took in $65,446 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $3,500 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 $6,240 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the $7,180 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $4,100 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $3,010 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 Marathon's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Marathon listings are booked on 66% or more of their nights, against 44% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $435 adds about $4,340 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $650 a night or more, against a median of $435. 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 $5,830 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, March brings the average listing about $11,400, against $4,000 in September, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Marathon listings average 4.82 stars, and 38% 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 $9,630 a month, against $5,450 for the average one.

FAQ
Marathon Airbnb FAQ
How much do Airbnb hosts make in Marathon?
An active Marathon Airbnb grossed $65,446 on average in the 12 months to September 2026, according to AirROI's tracking of 1,100 active listings. That is before cleaning, management, taxes and financing. Busier, better-run listings do far better: the top quarter took in $10,400 or more in a typical month.
How much can I make on Airbnb in Marathon?
It depends most on the home's size, location and how it's run. The middle half of Marathon listings earn between $3,200 and $10,400 in a typical month, and the top tenth $16,500 or more. For one home, enter its address and bedroom count in the Airbnb income calculator: it compares the home with similar listings nearby.
What is the average Airbnb occupancy rate in Marathon?
Listings in Marathon were booked on 43% of available nights over the past year. That compares with 42% for the Florida average. February is usually the busiest month.
How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Marathon?
The average booked night in Marathon cost $538 before fees. Half of listings charge between $300 and $650, so bedroom count and location move the price more than the average suggests.
Do you need a permit for an Airbnb in Marathon?
None of the active Marathon listings display a registration, permit or license number. That doesn't mean no rules apply, so confirm registration, permit and occupancy-tax rules with the city or county before buying.
Is Airbnb profitable in Marathon?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Marathon Airbnb grossed $65,446 in the 12 months to September 2026, 67% above the Florida average of $39,250. Run by its owner, with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, $41,966 a year (about $3,500 a month) is left before the mortgage or rent. A home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit, and a listing at the top-quarter mark leaves about $6,240 a month. Check a specific home in the Airbnb estimator.
