Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Anacortes?

Gross bookings per Anacortes listing averaged $33,106 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Washington State average: $36,079), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Anacortes listing brings in $6,630 in July, its best month, and $2,070 in January, its slowest. February runs within 2% of January, so either can be the slowest in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 40% 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 $7,100+ a month, about 2.3 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $4,780 or more, roughly $1,700 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $3,060 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $1,830 or less, about 60% 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 Anacortes Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Anacortes Airbnb took in $33,106 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,760 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 $2,760 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $3,640 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $2,060 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,510 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 Anacortes's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Anacortes listings are booked on 70% or more of their nights, against 48% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $205 adds about $2,030 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $295 a night or more, against a median of $205. 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 $2,950 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about $6,630, against $2,070 in January, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Anacortes listings average 4.90 stars, and 67% 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 $4,310 a month, against $2,760 for the average one.

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Anacortes

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 Anacortes.

That is before cleaning, management, taxes and financing. Busier, better-run listings do far better: the top quarter took in $4,780 or more in a typical month.

How much can I make on Airbnb in Anacortes?

For one home, enter its address and bedroom count in the Airbnb income calculator: it compares the home with similar listings nearby.

What is the average Airbnb occupancy rate in Anacortes?

Listings in Anacortes were booked on 47% of available nights over the past year. That compares with 43% for the Washington State average. August is usually the busiest month.

How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Anacortes?

The average booked night in Anacortes cost $257 before fees. Half of listings charge between $145 and $295, so bedroom count and location move the price more than the average suggests.

Do you need a permit for an Airbnb in Anacortes?

None of the active Anacortes listings display a registration, permit or license number. That doesn't mean no rules apply, so confirm registration, permit and occupancy-tax rules with the city or county before buying.

Is Airbnb profitable in Anacortes?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Anacortes Airbnb grossed $33,106 in the 12 months to September 2026, 8% below the Washington State average of $36,079. Run by its owner, with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, $21,076 a year (about $1,760 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 $2,760 a month. Check a specific home in the Airbnb estimator.
