Information on Airbnb Charges

Currently ‘The Boathouse’ is a busy 5-star cottage being rented out as a holiday let on Airbnb. This could easily be continued, and therefore purchased as an investment opportunity. Most Hosts on Airbnb pay a flat service fee of 3% of the booking subtotal. The subtotal would be the nightly price plus any optional fees that would be charged to guests, such as a cleaning fee, and it doesn’t include Airbnb fees and taxes. Guests would typically pay a service fee of around 14% of the booking subtotal.

So, for example; charging £100 a night for a 3-night stay, plus £60 for a cleaning fee, the booking subtotal is £360. The Host service fee, which is generally 3% of the booking subtotal (£10.80), is deducted from the Host’s earnings, and a service fee of 14% (£50.40) is charged to guests and included in the total price they pay.

In this example:

The host would earn £349.20

The Airbnb guest would pay £410.40

Airbnb’s service fees are competitive, and they don’t charge for payment processing. This allows Hosts to keep a larger portion of their earnings. For reference, currently ‘The Boathouse’ is charging £160-175 per night (minimum 2-night stay).
