How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Punta Colorada?

Gross bookings per Punta Colorada listing averaged UYU 395,022 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Departamento de Maldonado average: UYU 416,169), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Punta Colorada listing brings in UYU 136,000 in January, its best month, and UYU 28,100 in August, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 48% 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 UYU 118,000+ a month, about three times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn UYU 67,800 or more, roughly UYU 30,000 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about UYU 38,300 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn UYU 21,500 or less, about 56% 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 Punta Colorada Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Punta Colorada Airbnb took in UYU 395,022 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about UYU 23,700 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 UYU 42,400 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the UYU 20,400 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about UYU 25,400 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about UYU 20,600 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.

How Punta Colorada's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Punta Colorada listings are booked on 41% or more of their nights, against 28% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of UYU 4,690 adds about UYU 46,900 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge UYU 6,385 a night or more, against a median of UYU 4,690. 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 UYU 37,500 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, January brings the average listing about UYU 136,000, against UYU 28,100 in August, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Punta Colorada listings average 4.79 stars, and 34% 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 UYU 58,300 a month, against UYU 32,900 for the average one.
