Gross bookings per Burrum Heads listing averaged A$22,825 over the 12 months to October 2026 (Queensland average: A$51,864), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Burrum Heads listing brings in A$7,310 in December, its best month, and A$2,870 in June, its slowest.

In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 3.9 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn A$6,590+ a month, about three times the typical property.

Profit
Is an Airbnb in Burrum Heads Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Burrum Heads Airbnb took in A$22,825 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about A$1,130 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 A$2,280 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the A$3,340 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about A$1,410 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about A$970 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 Burrum Heads's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Burrum Heads listings are booked on 43% or more of their nights, against 26% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of A$325 adds about A$3,250 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge A$465 a night or more, against a median of A$325. 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 A$1,950 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, December brings the average listing about A$7,310, against A$2,870 in June, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Burrum Heads listings average 4.54 stars, and 18% 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 A$3,780 a month, against A$1,900 for the average one.
