Gross bookings per San José listing averaged ARS 6,355,113 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Mendoza average: ARS 10,208,871), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average San José listing brings in ARS 1,440,000 in July, its best month, and ARS 491,000 in April, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 36% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

Profit
Is an Airbnb in San José Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average San José Airbnb took in ARS 6,355,113 in the 12 months to September 2026, an average that counts every active listing, including those open only part of the year. A listing in the top quarter took in about ARS 14,628,000, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about ARS 853,000 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money.
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 San José's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of San José listings are booked on 59% or more of their nights, against 24% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of ARS 70,300 adds about ARS 703,000 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge ARS 116,000 a night or more, against a median of ARS 70,300. 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 ARS 588,000 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about ARS 1,440,000, against ARS 491,000 in April, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. San José listings average 4.90 stars, and 38% 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 ARS 1,219,000 a month, against ARS 530,000 for the average one.
