An Airbnb revenue forecast is a month-by-month projection of occupancy, ADR and revenue for one property, set beside comparable listings. Buyers use it to test a purchase, operators use it to check an arbitrage lease, and hosts use it to set targets for a live listing.
What I plan around in Dubrovnik: Old Town and city-walls tourism; Dubrovnik Summer Festival; Cruise calls; Wedding and honeymoon travel. Guests I price for: International couples on 3 to 5 night stays in the Old Town, Lapad and Ploče. Where I start: High-season premiums with minimum stays, view positioning, and off-season floors.
For Dubrovnik hosts I set up PriceLabs or Wheelhouse with view and location premiums, festival and cruise-day uplifts, firm summer minimums and a planned shoulder, keeping Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo in line so no channel undersells the summer weeks or the September honeymoon dates.
The service in general is described on my airbnb revenue forecast page; this page covers how I apply it in Dubrovnik.
I project occupancy, ADR and revenue for each month in conservative, realistic and optimistic cases, with annual totals, RevPAR and seasonality.
I choose comparable listings by hand and remove inactive ones and outliers, so the benchmark is real and not a postcode average.
For a purchase or an arbitrage lease I set revenue against rent or mortgage and costs, and show the occupancy you need to break even.
A clear report with my reasoning for each assumption, suitable for partners, investors or lenders.
“Dubrovnik is compact, popular and seasonal. The Old Town fills from May to October, with July and August highest, and cruise traffic is now limited by the city. Views of the walls or the sea decide most of the price difference. Winter is quiet.”

Many owners close, but the Winter Festival and Advent keep a few guests. I either close with intent or set low, steady rates for longer stays and slow travellers.
Spring couples and early cruise days start the season. I price weekends and cruise-heavy days higher and keep minimums short to attract early visitors.
The Summer Festival from mid-July and the busiest cruise days push demand. I open summer dates early with four night minimums and firm view premiums.
Warm seas and quieter streets suit couples and honeymooners. I step rates down weekly through October and shorten minimums gradually.
Price July and August as the top season with minimum stays.
Add the Dubrovnik Summer Festival as a premium.
Price sea and Old Town views clearly higher.
Price Lapad and Ploče on separate comps.
Set off-season floors.

Real feedback from PriceLabs pricing strategy sessions with Alaa.
Alaa is a consummate professional! Patient, thorough, efficient and effective in communicating. He not only made savvy adjustments to my dynamic pricing strategy, but also helped me to understand the reasoning behind his methods, granting me a better understanding of the PriceLabs platform. Strong work!
Airbnb host
Alaa was fantastic, going through each of the properties I had and gave great advice and actioned a great game plan. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to enhance their pricing strategy on PriceLabs. Alaa's experience goes beyond this which makes it very beneficial to have this holistic approach.
Property manager
Alaa helped me optimize my PriceLabs settings for my Airbnb listing and was very helpful and patient with answering any questions I had. He was also able to clearly explain why he made the changes he made, and it was obvious that he had a lot of experience in this field. I will definitely be back!

Busiest in Dubrovnik: May to October, with July and August the highest and cruise-ship days adding pressure. June to August: The Summer Festival from mid-July and the busiest cruise days push demand. I open summer dates early with four night minimums and firm view premiums. September to October: Warm seas and quieter streets suit couples and honeymooners. I step rates down weekly through October and shorten minimums gradually. For Airbnb revenue forecast, i model these windows month by month, so peak months carry the revenue they realistically can and not an annual average.
For Airbnb revenue forecast, i project the quiet months separately, which is what shows whether a purchase or an arbitrage lease survives them. Quietest in Dubrovnik: November to March. April to May: Spring couples and early cruise days start the season. I price weekends and cruise-heavy days higher and keep minimums short to attract early visitors. November to March: Many owners close, but the Winter Festival and Advent keep a few guests. I either close with intent or set low, steady rates for longer stays and slow travellers.
Old Town: Inside the walls, where every stay is close to the sights. I price at the top, protect festival dates and set clear minimum stays in summer. Ploče and Pile and Lapad and Babin Kuk get their own treatment. For Airbnb revenue forecast, i choose the comp set from the part of Dubrovnik your property is actually in, and remove inactive listings and outliers.
For Airbnb revenue forecast, i check this before projecting anything, because a projection built on a wrong assumption only looks precise. How many steps lead from the road or the gate to the door, because many homes above the Old Town involve steep stairs, and guests need that clear before they pay a premium.
International couples on 3 to 5 night stays in the Old Town, Lapad and Ploče. Demand is driven by Cruise calls and Wedding and honeymoon travel. For Airbnb revenue forecast, i base length of stay and booking window assumptions on how these guests book.
Winter is quiet. Dubrovnik is compact, popular and seasonal. That is the view I bring to Airbnb revenue forecast in Dubrovnik.
Old Town and city-walls tourism, Dubrovnik Summer Festival and Cruise calls are the dates I price first for Airbnb revenue forecast in Dubrovnik. June to August: The Summer Festival from mid-July and the busiest cruise days push demand. I open summer dates early with four night minimums and firm view premiums.
Results depend on the property, the starting point and the season, so I do not promise a number. In Dubrovnik the first gains from Airbnb revenue forecast usually come from the change with the clearest local signal: price Lapad and Ploče on separate comps. I review progress against your own occupancy, ADR and RevPAR, not a market average.
The Airbnb revenue forecast is quoted per property after a short chat, with the scope and price confirmed before work starts. Comparing several candidate properties is scoped together. The scope of Airbnb revenue forecast is the same in every market, but the plan is not: in Dubrovnik I would start from September to October: Warm seas and quieter streets suit couples and honeymooners.
