How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Houma?
Gross bookings per Houma listing averaged $18,022 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Louisiana average: $31,540), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Houma listing brings in $2,620 in September, its best month, and $1,820 in January, its slowest. Both ends are close calls: September leads June by 2%, and January sits just 2% below August, so either pair can swap places in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 29% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.
In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 2.8 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $4,400+ a month, about 2.3 times the typical property.
- Strong performers (top 25%) earn $3,040 or more, roughly $1,100 a month above the median.
- Typical properties (median) earn about $1,920 a month.
- Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $1,060 or less, about 55% 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.

Houma 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 February 2026 and bookings in June 2026, so the best-paying month is not always the busiest or the priciest.

Profit
Is an Airbnb in Houma Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Houma Airbnb took in $18,022 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $970 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 $1,540 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the $1,830 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $1,120 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $830 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 Houma's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Houma listings are booked on 58% or more of their nights, against 37% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $160 adds about $1,600 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $220 a night or more, against a median of $160. 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 $1,620 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, September brings the average listing about $2,620, against $1,820 in January, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Houma listings average 4.91 stars, and 60% 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 $2,380 a month, against $1,500 for the average one.

Is Airbnb profitable in Houma?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Houma Airbnb grossed $18,022 in the 12 months to September 2026, 43% below the Louisiana average of $31,540. Run by its owner, with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, $11,632 a year (about $970 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 $1,540 a month. Check a specific home in the Airbnb estimator.
