Overview

What is Airbnb revenue forecast in Montpellier?

An Airbnb revenue forecast is a month-by-month projection of occupancy, ADR and revenue for one property, shown next to the same figures for comparable listings. It is used to test a purchase, an arbitrage lease or a new listing before money is committed, and to set revenue targets for a live listing.

Demand drivers in Montpellier: Mediterranean beaches at Palavas and La Grande-Motte; Festival de Radio France; Place de la Comedie and the Ecusson; Languedoc and Pic Saint-Loup wine. Typical guests: students' families, festival-goers and beachgoers on 3 to 6 night stays in the Ecusson old town and the Antigone district. Where the work starts: a warm-climate summer beach and festival peak, student-city demand through term time, and French meuble de tourisme registration.

Montpellier short-term rental pricing has to juggle students, festivals and beaches. In the Écusson, we set nightly rates with premiums for FISE weekend, July festivals and university graduations, and offer monthly rates for interns and visiting researchers in winter. Coastal flats switch to weekly stays in July and August. Air conditioning and a balcony or terrace matter more here than in northern cities, so we price them as premium features.

The full service is described on our airbnb revenue forecast page; this page covers how it applies in Montpellier.

Market guide

Montpellier revenue management market guide

Montpellier blends a student city, a festival city and a beach town. The Écusson old town and Place de la Comédie draw visitors all year, the universities and the historic medical faculty bring parents and visiting academics in term time, and from June the Mediterranean beaches at Palavas, Carnon and La Grande-Motte pull families towards the coast. Summer culture is dense, with Montpellier Danse and the Festival Radio France Occitanie keeping July lively. In May, the FISE action sports festival on the banks of the Lez adds a sharp spike. December and January are the slowest months. We price the city on term-time and event demand, the coast on summer weeks, and avoid underpricing the long, warm shoulder seasons that this climate allows.
