Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Maui County?

Gross bookings per Maui County listing averaged $52,878 over the 12 months to April 2026 (Hawaii average: $61,223), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

The average Maui County listing brought in $7,260 in January, its best month, and $4,430 in December, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 31% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

Across Maui County's 18 active listings, monthly revenue by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $13,200+ a month, about three times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $7,490 or more, roughly $3,200 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $4,280 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $2,390 or less, about 56% 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.

January earned about 1.6 times what December did

Averages per active listing in each month. Highlighted: the highest-revenue month. RevPAR is the month's revenue spread over its nights, booked or not. Booking lead time is the days between booking and check-in, and length of stay the nights per booking, for stays in that month. *Apr 2026 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 Maui County Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Maui County Airbnb took in $52,878 in the 12 months to April 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $2,950 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 $5,210 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $4,690 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $3,340 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $2,550 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 Maui County's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Maui County listings are booked on 70% or more of their nights, against 45% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $305 adds about $3,070 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $385 a night or more, against a median of $305. 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 $4,820 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. January brought the average listing about $7,260, against $4,430 in December, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Maui County listings average 4.80 stars, and 17% 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 $7,710 a month, against $4,410 for the average one.
