Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Jamaica?

Gross bookings per Jamaica listing averaged $32,199 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Vermont average: $38,492), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Jamaica listing brings in $7,110 in February, its best month, and $2,400 in April, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 38% 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 3.1 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $8,570+ a month, about 2.5 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $5,770 or more, roughly $2,300 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $3,440 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $1,830 or less, about half 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.

February earns about three times what April does

Averages per active listing in each month. Highlighted: the highest-revenue month of the 12. 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.

The typical Jamaica listing earns about $3,440 a month, but one property can land well above or below that. The Airbnb estimator gives a range for a specific address, built from the comparable listings around it.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Jamaica Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Jamaica Airbnb took in $32,199 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,700 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 $2,890 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $3,930 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $2,030 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,470 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 Jamaica's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Jamaica listings are booked on 54% or more of their nights, against 34% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $355 adds about $3,570 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $535 a night or more, against a median of $355. 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 $2,830 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, February brings the average listing about $7,110, against $2,400 in April, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Jamaica listings average 4.89 stars, and 66% 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 $4,510 a month, against $2,680 for the average one.

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Jamaica

16% of the 122 active listings in Jamaica display a registration, permit or license number. A low share 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 Jamaica.
