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 Manila: Boracay and Cebu beach season; Balikbayan Christmas travel; Business process outsourcing corporate travel; Sinulog and festivals. Guests I price for: Domestic families and regional travellers on 3 to 5 night stays, corporate guests in Makati and BGC. Where I start: Dry-season premiums, Christmas minimum stays, and condo positioning in Makati and BGC.
On Airbnb, Agoda and Booking.com I configure PriceLabs or Wheelhouse with Holy Week and Christmas overrides, rainy-season floors and monthly discounts for corporate guests in BGC and Makati, keeping rates, fees and minimum stays aligned across every channel so no listing undercuts another during Holy Week or Christmas.
The service in general is described on my airbnb revenue forecast page; this page covers how I apply it in Manila.
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.
“The Philippines needs three strategies under one heading. Makati and BGC condos serve corporate and outsourcing travel on weekdays, Boracay and Cebu sell dry-season beach holidays, and Christmas brings Filipinos home from abroad. Boracay also manages visitor numbers carefully since its rehabilitation, so accredited properties have an edge.”

Sinulog in Cebu and Ati-Atihan in Kalibo near Boracay create festival weeks, so I price those dates as premiums and keep the rest of the dry season steady.
Summer school break and Holy Week bring domestic families to the beaches; I lift Boracay and Cebu rates sharply and set three-night minimums across the Easter long weekend.
Typhoons and rain slow leisure travel, so I keep beach floors sensible and lean on Makati and BGC corporate stays, which hold up better through the wet months.
Thirteenth-month pay, school breaks and balikbayan visits make Christmas the year's high point. I open December early, protect New Year with longer minimums and limit last-minute deals.
Set weekday corporate rates for Makati and BGC condos.

Real feedback from PriceLabs pricing strategy sessions with Alaa.
Alaa is a consummate professional! Patient, thorough, efficient and effective in communicating.

Strong work!

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 Manila: December to May dry season, Holy Week, and Christmas. March to May: Summer school break and Holy Week bring domestic families to the beaches; I lift Boracay and Cebu rates sharply and set three-night minimums across the Easter long weekend. November to December: Thirteenth-month pay, school breaks and balikbayan visits make Christmas the year's high point. I open December early, protect New Year with longer minimums and limit last-minute deals. 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 Manila: June to October rainy season. June to October: Typhoons and rain slow leisure travel, so I keep beach floors sensible and lean on Makati and BGC corporate stays, which hold up better through the wet months.
Bonifacio Global City (BGC): Corporate and expat demand keeps weekdays strong; I price it for business travellers and offer monthly rates for project teams. Boracay Station 2 and Mactan Island, Cebu get their own treatment. For Airbnb revenue forecast, i choose the comp set from the part of Manila 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 the condo building in Makati or BGC treats short-stay guests, because some associations restrict them, and a guest turned away at reception damages the listing for months.
Domestic families and regional travellers on 3 to 5 night stays, corporate guests in Makati and BGC. Demand is driven by Business process outsourcing corporate travel and Sinulog and festivals. For Airbnb revenue forecast, i base length of stay and booking window assumptions on how these guests book.
The Philippines needs three strategies under one heading. Makati and BGC condos serve corporate and outsourcing travel on weekdays, Boracay and Cebu sell dry-season beach holidays, and Christmas brings Filipinos home from abroad. That is the view I bring to Airbnb revenue forecast in Manila.
Boracay and Cebu beach season, Balikbayan Christmas travel and Business process outsourcing corporate travel are the dates I price first for Airbnb revenue forecast in Manila. June to October: Typhoons and rain slow leisure travel, so I keep beach floors sensible and lean on Makati and BGC corporate stays, which hold up better through the wet months.
Results depend on the property, the starting point and the season, so I do not promise a number. In Manila the first gains from Airbnb revenue forecast usually come from the change with the clearest local signal: confirm accreditation requirements on Boracay. 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 Manila I would start from March to May: Summer school break and Holy Week bring domestic families to the beaches; I lift Boracay and Cebu rates sharply and set three-night minimums across the Easter long weekend. To start, open the chat or email me with your property type and size in Manila.
