Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Tapalpa?

Gross bookings per Tapalpa listing averaged MX$197,860 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Jalisco average: MX$235,286), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Tapalpa listing brings in MX$40,100 in December, its best month, and MX$17,800 in May, its slowest. February runs within 3% of May, so either can be the slowest in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 35% 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 4.5 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn MX$58,000+ a month, about 3.6 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn MX$32,400 or more, roughly MX$17,000 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about MX$15,900 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn MX$7,130 or less, about 45% of the median.

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.

December earns about 2.3 times what May does

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Tapalpa Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Tapalpa Airbnb took in MX$197,860 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about MX$11,800 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 MX$24,200 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the MX$8,600 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about MX$12,500 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about MX$10,200 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 Tapalpa's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Tapalpa listings are booked on 31% or more of their nights, against 16% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of MX$2,895 adds about MX$28,900 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge MX$4,355 a night or more, against a median of MX$2,895. 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 MX$18,900 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, December brings the average listing about MX$40,100, against MX$17,800 in May, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Tapalpa listings average 4.78 stars, and 29% 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 MX$33,500 a month, against MX$16,500 for the average one.

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, MX$3,700. The 12-month ADR of MX$3,893 averages each listing's own rate across its whole year; the monthly points average listings month by month, so the two differ.

What Is the RevPAR for Airbnb in Tapalpa?

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Tapalpa
