Gross bookings per Minas listing averaged UYU 495,373 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Uruguay average: UYU 369,768), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Minas listing brings in UYU 67,300 in January, its best month, and UYU 43,300 in October, its slowest. November runs within 4% of October, so either can be the slowest in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 29% 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 4.1 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
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
Yes, when it's run well. The average Minas Airbnb took in UYU 495,373 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about UYU 29,900 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 59,500 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the UYU 22,900 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about UYU 31,800 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about UYU 25,900 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.

Permits
None of the 56 active listings in Minas 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 tourist-tax rules vary by address and change often, so confirm them with the local authority before buying or listing in Minas.
