Profit
Is an Airbnb in Arenas de José Ignacio Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Arenas de José Ignacio Airbnb took in UYU 887,447 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about UYU 55,600 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 UYU 135,500 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the UYU 38,400 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about UYU 58,800 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about UYU 48,500 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 building or condo fees.
