STR Listings With 3-4 Night Minimum Stays Generate Higher Revenue

6/1/2026

New research from Hospitable and IntelliHost found that short-term rental properties requiring three- to four-night minimum stays earn substantially more revenue than listings that allow one-night bookings. Based on data from more than 4.1 million Airbnb listings and 342,000 reservations, one-bedroom properties with four-night minimums generated nearly 35% more annual revenue, while four-bedroom homes earned 41% more. The study also showed that long-term bookings made months in advance had cancellation rates approaching 32%.
