Profit
Is an Airbnb in Kariba Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Kariba Airbnb took in $9,071 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $570 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 $1,240 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the $150 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $580 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $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.

How Kariba's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Kariba listings are booked on 31% or more of their nights, against 18% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $210 adds about $2,090 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $320 a night or more, against a median of $210. 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 $890 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, December brings the average listing about $2,330, against $990 in June, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Kariba listings average 4.68 stars, and 9% 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 $1,630 a month, against $760 for the average one.

About This Data
Figures on this page cover 32 active Airbnb listings in Kariba from November 2025 to October 2026 (trailing twelve months). AirROI refreshes them monthly from listing-level booking and calendar data covering 20+ million properties worldwide. Money figures are in U.S. dollars. Annual revenue averages every listing active during the period, including those listed for only part of it; monthly figures average the listings active in each month; the tier lists show the spread. Neighborhood descriptions are AI-assisted. See the methodology for definitions.
