The average Wai‘ōhinu listing brought in $3,080 in December, its best month, and $1,950 in March, 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%.

  • Typical properties (median) earn about $1,920 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $1,040 or less, about 54% of the median.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Wai‘ōhinu Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Wai‘ōhinu Airbnb took in $18,956 in the 12 months to October 2025, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,150 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 $2,120 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 Wai‘ōhinu's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Wai‘ōhinu listings are booked on 61% or more of their nights, against 43% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $155 adds about $1,560 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $210 a night or more, against a median of $155. 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 $1,900 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. December brought the average listing about $3,080, against $1,950 in March, 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 $2,880 a month, against $1,580 for the average one.
