Profit
Is an Airbnb in Haiku-Pauwela Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Haiku-Pauwela Airbnb took in $61,866 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $3,350 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 $4,870 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the $6,300 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $3,880 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $2,890 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.

- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Haiku-Pauwela listings are booked on 73% or more of their nights, against 57% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $245 adds about $2,430 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $375 a night or more, against a median of $245.

- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, January brings the average listing about $7,480, against $4,080 in September, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
