Which Costa Rica Airbnb earns the most?

Our rent leaderboard ranks every Gold Coast listing with verified AirROI trailing revenue (grade A — deep review record corroborating the figure). Top earners vary by market and bedroom count; see the live ranking at puravidaportfolio.com/rentals.

What is a winning recipe for Costa Rica STR revenue?

We measure how much each amenity lifts nightly income — pool, ocean view, walk-to-beach, Superhost, and more — across like-for-like markets and bedroom counts. Listings with most of the winning traits yet trailing peers are flagged: usually pricing, photos, or calendar — not the property.
