Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Rockland?

Gross bookings per Rockland listing averaged $26,129 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Maine average: $37,768), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Rockland listing brings in $6,450 in July, its best month, and $1,530 in February, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 44% 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 2.6 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $6,610+ a month, about 2.5 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $4,500 or more, roughly $1,800 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $2,690 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $1,680 or less, about 62% 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.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Rockland Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Rockland Airbnb took in $26,129 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,450 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 $2,450 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $2,170 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $1,630 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,250 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 Rockland's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Rockland listings are booked on 65% or more of their nights, against 40% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $215 adds about $2,170 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $325 a night or more, against a median of $215. 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 $2,400 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about $6,450, against $1,530 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Rockland listings average 4.83 stars, and 53% 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 $3,640 a month, against $2,180 for the average one.

Nightly rates

How Much Does an Airbnb Cost per Night in Rockland?

The average nightly rate in Rockland, known as ADR (average daily rate), was $261 over the past year, about 30% below the Maine average of $375 and about 18% below the U.S. average of $320. In a typical year, rates peak in July and August at about $280 and bottom out in November at about $205.

Prices span a wide range: the top 10% charge about three times the rate of the bottom quarter.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) charge $435+ a night, about twice the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) charge $325 or more, about $110 above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) charge about $215 a night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) charge $140 or less, about two-thirds of the median.

July rates run 37% above November's

Average nightly rate (ADR), by month, September 2024 to August 2026

The 12-month ADR of $261 averages each listing's own rate across its whole year; the monthly points average listings month by month, so the two differ.

What Is the RevPAR for Airbnb in Rockland?

RevPAR, or revenue per available night, divides a listing's income by every night it was open to book, so it rises with both price and bookings. In Rockland it averaged $131 over the past year, from about $55 in a typical February to about $208 in a typical July.

Per open night, by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $257+ per open night, about 2.2 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $161 or more, about $40 a night above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $119 per open night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $80 or less, about two-thirds of the median.

July RevPAR is about 3.8 times February's

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Rockland

None of the 53 active listings in Rockland display a registration, permit or license number. That doesn't mean no rules apply: some places don't ask hosts to show a number on the listing, and listing data doesn't capture every scheme.

Registration, permit, zoning and occupancy-tax rules vary by address and change often, so confirm them with the city or county before buying or listing in Rockland.
