Airbnb listing in March - 2024

• Airbnb appears to be very popular in both most-visited cities of Australia.

• Most of the listings are located in the central business districts, expanding to its neighboring areas and sometimes to the suburban and beachside neighborhoods.

Price by Room Type

• The price to rent an entire home or apartment seems to be slightly cheaper in Melbourne, but getting a hotel room is more likely to be more expensive compared to Sydney.

• Getting a shared room is less costly compared to a private room in both cities, and the prices for these types could be quite higher in Sydney.

• There are a lot of “outliers” when it comes to the listing prices of entire homes/apartments or private rooms, which suggests that the prices requested by private owners could be quite inconsistent and/or depend on various factors.

Price and Overal Rating in Melbourne

• There is a visible mix between low and high prices in Melbourne.

• However, the overall quality seems to be consistently well-received across the city.

Price and Overal Rating in Sydney
