Is Airbnb Profitable in Phuket?

Yes, there is good short-term rental demand. A 66% median occupancy rate is considered a good market for Airbnb. The graph below shows the average monthly host income by month.
Tip! investing in a short-term rental can be highly stable and profitable. It’s stable because housing has been one of the most stable asset classes. Also, when you can’t do an Airbnb anymore, you can still rent it out to a long-term tenant with a lower yield. It is highly profitable because the monthly cash flow from short-term rental investment typically is double the amount of traditional rentals.

Starting an Airbnb in Phuket

Short-term rental regulation is lenient in Phuket. Very few Airbnb listing currently have put their license number on their Airbnb listing. This likely means the local government is not strictly enforcing the short-term rental-related regulations.
