Gross bookings per Jolly Harbour listing averaged EC$63,182 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Antigua average: EC$69,066), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Jolly Harbour listing brings in EC$14,400 in January, its best month, and EC$4,870 in October, its slowest. February runs within 1% of January, so either can come out on top in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 37% 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 3.7 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 Jolly Harbour Airbnb took in EC$63,182 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about EC$3,760 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 EC$6,930 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the EC$3,360 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about EC$4,040 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about EC$3,260 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.
