Airbnb Market Data / Hawaii Airbnb Market Data
What stands out in Hawaii?
December is what sets Hawaii apart. When Inside Airbnb collected it on 19-21 September 2026, 55.5% of Hawaii's December nights were open to book, the lowest share of the 34 regions. The calendar cannot say how much of the rest was booked and how much hosts blocked; homes with 4 or more bedrooms had just 43.1% of December open.
- Hawaii's homes are run by multi-listing hosts more than any other region's: 83.2% of its bookable entire homes belong to hosts with two or more listings, the highest of the 34 (median 62.0%).
- Its estimated occupancy since 1 July, 15.0%, is the lowest of the 34 regions (median 29.3%); the model counts reviews, and 67.0% of Hawaii's bookable entire homes were reviewed in the last 12 months.
- Discounts are common in Hawaii: 38.5% of its near-term quotes carried a host discount, and among homes with 4 or more bedrooms the share was 49.3%.
What is the listed nightly price of an Airbnb in Hawaii?
The listed nightly price is the asking price of a near-term stay at a bookable entire home, net of host discounts and before taxes and fees: what a guest was quoted, not what a guest paid.
UpRev's count puts the median near-term quoted price of a bookable entire home at $381 a night; the middle half of quotes ran from $270 to $589, and the top tenth started at $1,038. By size, the median runs from $252 for studios to $1,521 for homes with 4 or more bedrooms. 1-bedroom homes are the largest group, 37.6% of its 31,117 bookable homes, and 38.5% of its near-term quotes carried a host discount.
| Bedrooms (of 31,117 homes) | Bookable homes | Share of homes | Homes with a near-term quote | Quotes with a discount | 25th percentile | Median | 75th percentile | 90th percentile |

| Studio | 3,854 | 12.4% | 2,840 | 33.3% | $197 | $252 | $333 | $478 |

How many nights are still open to book in Hawaii?
Open nights are the calendar nights a host still offers to book, as Inside Airbnb collected them. A night that is not open may be booked or blocked by the host, and the calendar does not say which, so a low share open is not proof of demand on its own.
As Inside Airbnb collected it on 19-21 September 2026, UpRev counts 50.8% of October nights at its bookable homes still open to book, 57.4% of November nights and 55.5% of December nights; a night that is not open may be booked or blocked by the host, and the file does not say which. For December, studios had the most nights open (62.3%) and homes with 4 or more bedrooms the fewest (43.1%).
| Bedrooms (of 31,117 homes) | October nights open | November nights open | December nights open |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 54.1% | 66.8% | 62.3% |
| 1 | 50.8% | 58.8% | 59.3% |
| 2 | 52.3% | 56.9% | 52.3% |
| 3 | 49.5% | 53.3% | 52.1% |
| 4+ | 41.2% | 42.6% | 43.1% |
| All | 50.8% | 57.4% | 55.5% |

What is the estimated occupancy of an Airbnb in Hawaii?
Estimated occupancy is Inside Airbnb's own review-based model, run by UpRev with each region's average stay. It is an estimate built from reviews, not a count of bookings, and it reads low because a review follows check-out.
Inside Airbnb's review-based model, run by UpRev with the 3-night average stay Inside Airbnb sets for the region, gives its bookable homes an estimated occupancy of 15.0% on average over the 78 nights from 1 July to 16 September 2026; at least half of its homes had no review in the window, so the median home sits at 0.0%, 4.8% of homes reached the model's 70% cap, and because reviews follow check-out the figure reads low. By size, studios had the highest estimated occupancy (20.4%) and homes with 4 or more bedrooms the lowest (9.1%).
| Bedrooms (of 31,117 homes) | Bookable homes | Reviews in the window | Estimated occupancy, mean | Estimated occupancy, median | Homes at the 70% cap |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 3,854 | 10,074 | 20.4% | 7.7% | 6.8% |
| 1 | 11,695 | 25,278 | 16.8% | 7.7% | 5.6% |
| 2 | 9,678 | 14,366 | 12.3% | 0.0% | 3.3% |
| 3 | 3,496 | 5,602 | 14.6% | 0.0% | 5.1% |
| 4+ | 2,344 | 2,167 | 9.1% | 0.0% | 3.6% |
| All | 31,117 | 57,597 | 15.0% | 0.0% | 4.8% |
Estimated occupancy of the 31,117 bookable homes, 1 July to 16 September 2026 (78 nights): each review in the window counts as two stays of 3 nights, or of the listing's minimum stay if longer, capped at 70%; an estimate, not counted bookings; snapshot of 17 September 2026, collected 19-21 September 2026.

Who runs Hawaii's short-term rentals, and on what terms?
Inside Airbnb's snapshot holds 38,779 listings, 88.3% of them entire homes, and UpRev counts 31,117 of those as bookable. 83.2% of these bookable homes are run by hosts with two or more listings in the region; the median minimum stay is 2 nights, 6.0% ask for a minimum stay of 30 nights or more, and 67.0% were reviewed in the last 12 months.

How does Hawaii compare with the 34 short-term rental (STR) markets in the data?
UpRev's benchmark sets the region's 31,117 bookable homes beside the median of the 34 US regions Inside Airbnb covers, each read from its own snapshot of 14-30 September 2026; the regions' calendars were read on different days, so the shares of nights open compare calendars at different distances from each month.

What changed in Hawaii since the snapshot before?
Between Inside Airbnb's snapshots of 21 June 2026 and 17 September 2026, UpRev counts bookable entire homes going from 30,359 to 31,117 (2.5%) and the median near-term quoted price from $382 to $381 (-$1, -0.3%); the June quotes were for stays checking in during June and July, so the price change crosses seasons: two snapshots, not a trend; the June file leaves most studios without a bedroom count, so June has no studio figure.
| Measure | June snapshot (30,359 homes) | September snapshot (31,117 homes) | Change | Change, relative |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Median near-term quoted nightly price (21,201 quotes in September) | $382 | $381 | -$1 | -0.3% |
| Bookable entire homes | 30,359 | 31,117 | 758 | 2.5% |

How does UpRev count Hawaii?
Bookable entire homes, 31,117 of them, from Inside Airbnb's snapshot of 17 September 2026, collected 19-21 September 2026. Estimated occupancy uses the 3-night average stay Inside Airbnb sets for the region, with which the model reproduces Inside Airbnb's own per-listing estimate on 38,779 of 38,779 listings in this snapshot and 38,156 of 38,156 in its June snapshot of 21 June 2026; every bedroom class has the 30 near-term quotes a price percentile needs, of 21,201 in all. How we count: see the method page.
