Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Atlanta?

Gross bookings per Atlanta listing averaged $26,810 over the 12 months to October 2026 (Georgia average: $32,138), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Atlanta listing brings in $3,640 in July, its best month, and $2,410 in February, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 29% 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 3.8 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $7,210+ a month, about three times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $4,400 or more, roughly $1,900 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $2,470 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $1,140 or less, about half 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.

July earns about 1.5 times what February does

Average revenue per active listing, by month, October 2024 to September 2026

Each point is one month as recorded, averaged over the listings active in it. The best and slowest months in the text average each calendar month over the past two years, so they can differ from the highest and lowest points here.

Atlanta Airbnb Data by Month

Latest 12 months in the October 2026 data. October's figures are still coming in, so the rows run to September.

June 2026 led on revenue and nightly rate; bookings peaked in March 2026. June and July 2026 were one-offs: listings earned about 49% more than they did in the same months a year earlier, so the seasonal averages on this page leave them out.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Atlanta Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Atlanta Airbnb took in $26,810 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,400 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 $2,520 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $3,290 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $1,680 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,210 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 HOA or condo fees.

How Atlanta's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Atlanta listings are booked on 61% or more of their nights, against 38% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $195 adds about $1,960 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $300 a night or more, against a median of $195. 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 $2,350 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about $3,640, against $2,410 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Atlanta listings average 4.76 stars, and 31% 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 $3,990 a month, against $2,230 for the average one.

Occupancy

What Is the Airbnb Occupancy Rate in Atlanta?

Atlanta listings were booked on 38% of the nights they were open over the past year, in line with the Georgia average and 3 percentage points below the U.S. average (41%). Counting only the listings booked in each month and averaging each month over two years, occupancy stays within a narrow band, from 40% in September to 46% in July.

The busiest tenth of listings are booked about four times as often as the bottom quarter.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) are booked 78%+ of open nights, 40 points above the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) fill 61% or more, roughly four nights a week.
  • Typical properties (median) fill about 38% of open nights.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) fill 19% or less, under two nights a week.

July is usually the busiest month in Atlanta, September the quietest

Share of open nights booked, by month, October 2024 to September 2026

The 12-month rate of 38% averages each listing's whole year, slow months included; each month here counts only the listings booked in it.

Nightly rates

How Much Does an Airbnb Cost per Night in Atlanta?

The average nightly rate in Atlanta, known as ADR (average daily rate), was $267 over the past year, about 12% below the Georgia average of $305 and about 20% below the U.S. average of $335. Averaged month by month over the past two years, rates peak in August and September at about $240 and bottom out in October and November at about $205.

Prices span a wide range: the top 10% charge about 3.6 times the rate of the bottom quarter.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) charge $470+ a night, about 2.4 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) charge $300 or more, about $110 above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) charge about $195 a night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) charge $130 or less, about two-thirds of the median.

September rates run 17% above November's

Average nightly rate (ADR), by month, October 2024 to September 2026

The 12-month ADR of $267 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 Atlanta?

RevPAR, or revenue per available night, divides a listing's income by every night it was open to book, so it rises with both price and bookings. In Atlanta it averaged $101 over the past year, from about $86 in a typical February to about $117 in a typical July.

Per open night, by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $201+ per open night, about 2.6 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $127 or more, about $50 a night above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $76 per open night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $41 or less, about half of the median.

July RevPAR is about 1.4 times February's

Seasonality

Best and Worst Months for Airbnb in Atlanta

Atlanta has one high season, May through July, which makes it a moderately seasonal market. Business is slowest in February and slows again in November.

June and July 2026 are left out of these averages as one-offs: listings earned about 49% more than they did in the same months a year earlier. Both still count in the 12-month figures at the top of the page.

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Atlanta

Airbnb is legal in Atlanta with a $150-a-year city license (primary residence plus one more home) and the number on every listing; taxes run about 16.9% plus $5 a night, and Home Park bans rentals.

9% of the 6,086 active listings in Atlanta display a registration, permit or license number. A low share doesn't mean no rules apply: some places don't ask hosts to show a number on the listing, and listing data doesn't capture every scheme.

The permit, operating limits and taxes on a stay are set out in the Atlanta Airbnb regulations, each rule linked to its official source and checked October 2026.

Airbnb Amenities Linked to Higher Revenue in Atlanta

Listings in Atlanta with a home movie theater earned about 2.7 times as much a year, on average, as those without: $71,200 against $26,300. The gap is smaller for a children's playroom (about 2.5 times as much) and a pool view (about 2.4 times as much). Bigger, professionally run homes tend to carry more amenities, so these gaps reflect the kind of listing as much as the feature itself.
