Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Jacksonville?

Gross bookings per Jacksonville listing averaged $19,269 over the 12 months to September 2026 (North Carolina average: $32,258), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Jacksonville listing brings in $3,160 in July, its best month, and $1,540 in January, its slowest. Both ends are close calls: July leads June by 1%, and January sits just 2% below February, so either pair can swap places in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 35% 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 $4,090+ a month, about twice the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $2,930 or more, roughly $970 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $1,960 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $1,120 or less, about 57% 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 Jacksonville Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Jacksonville Airbnb took in $19,269 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $990 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 $1,490 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $2,570 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $1,200 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $850 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 Jacksonville's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Jacksonville listings are booked on 68% or more of their nights, against 45% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $125 adds about $1,270 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $165 a night or more, against a median of $125. 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 $1,670 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about $3,160, against $1,540 in January, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Jacksonville listings average 4.87 stars, and 58% 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 $2,400 a month, against $1,610 for the average one.

Occupancy

What Is the Airbnb Occupancy Rate in Jacksonville?

The busiest tenth of listings are booked about 3.2 times as often as the bottom quarter.

Share of open nights booked, by month, September 2024 to August 2026

The 12-month rate of 45% averages each listing's whole year, slow months included; each month here counts only the listings booked in it.

Nightly rates

How Much Does an Airbnb Cost per Night in Jacksonville?

The average nightly rate in Jacksonville, known as ADR (average daily rate), was $148 over the past year, about 51% below the North Carolina and U.S. averages ($305 and $320). In a typical year, rates peak in June and July at about $150 and bottom out in September and October at about $120.

The top 10% charge about 2.2 times the rate of the bottom quarter.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) charge $215+ a night, about 1.7 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) charge $165 or more, about $40 above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) charge about $125 a night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) charge $99 or less, about three-quarters of the median.

July rates run 24% above October's

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

The 12-month ADR of $148 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 Jacksonville?

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 Jacksonville it averaged $68 over the past year, from about $50 in a typical January to about $105 in a typical June.

Per open night, by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $110+ per open night, about 1.7 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $83 or more, about $18 a night above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $65 per open night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $40 or less, about 61% of the median.

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Jacksonville

None of the 212 active listings in Jacksonville 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 Jacksonville.

How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Jacksonville?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Jacksonville Airbnb grossed $19,269 in the 12 months to September 2026, 40% below the North Carolina average of $32,258. Run by its owner, with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, $11,879 a year (about $990 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 $1,490 a month. Check a specific home in the Airbnb calculator.
