Revenue
How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Makaha?
Gross bookings per Makaha listing averaged $28,159 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Hawaii average: $61,223), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Makaha listing brings in $4,560 in January, its best month, and $3,310 in September, its slowest. Both ends are close calls: January leads July by 4%, and September sits just 5% below November, so either pair can swap places in a given year. The swing is mild: the best month earns about 38% more than the slowest.
In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least five times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $8,550+ a month, about three times the typical property.
- Strong performers (top 25%) earn $6,240 or more, roughly $3,400 a month above the median.
- Typical properties (median) earn about $2,860 a month.
- Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $1,240 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.

Makaha Airbnb Data by Month
Latest 12 months in the September 2026 data. September's figures are still coming in, so the rows run to August.
July 2026 led on revenue. Nightly rates peaked in November 2025 and bookings in January 2026, so the best-paying month is not always the busiest or the priciest. Across the past two years, January is usually the strongest month.

Profit
Is an Airbnb in Makaha Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Makaha Airbnb took in $28,159 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,680 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 $3,720 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the $1,570 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $1,810 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,460 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 Makaha's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Makaha listings are booked on 75% or more of their nights, against 52% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $140 adds about $1,420 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $275 a night or more, against a median of $140. 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 $2,660 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, January brings the average listing about $4,560, against $3,310 in September, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Makaha listings average 4.84 stars, and 41% 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 $5,130 a month, against $2,350 for the average one.

FAQ
Makaha Airbnb FAQ
How much do Airbnb hosts make in Makaha?
An active Makaha Airbnb grossed $28,159 on average in the 12 months to September 2026, according to AirROI's tracking of 114 active listings. That is before cleaning, management, taxes and financing. Busier, better-run listings do far better: the top quarter took in $6,240 or more in a typical month.
How much can I make on Airbnb in Makaha?
It depends most on the home's size, location and how it's run. The middle half of Makaha listings earn between $1,240 and $6,240 in a typical month, and the top tenth $8,550 or more. For one home, enter its address and bedroom count in the Airbnb calculator: it compares the home with similar listings nearby.
What is the average Airbnb occupancy rate in Makaha?
Listings in Makaha were booked on 44% of available nights over the past year. That compares with 49% for the Hawaii average. February is usually the busiest month.
How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Makaha?
The average booked night in Makaha cost $207 before fees. Half of listings charge between $110 and $275, so bedroom count and location move the price more than the average suggests.
Do you need a permit for an Airbnb in Makaha?
In Makaha, 77% of active listings display a registration, permit or license number. The share shows what hosts display, not what the rules allow, so confirm registration, permit and occupancy-tax rules with the city or county before buying.
Is Airbnb profitable in Makaha?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Makaha Airbnb grossed $28,159 in the 12 months to September 2026, 54% below the Hawaii average of $61,223. Run by its owner, with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, $20,169 a year (about $1,680 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 $3,720 a month. Check a specific home in the Airbnb estimator.
