About this data
Figures come from the Inside Airbnb public dataset, snapshot dated 2026-06-29. They reflect the listings active on Airbnb at that date in this Greek municipality, not all short-term rentals on the island. Numbers are filtered to remove obvious outliers (prices below 30€ or above 2000€ per night).
Important caveat. Estimated occupancy and estimated revenue are computed by Inside Airbnb using a transparent methodology based on review velocity. They are good directional indicators but not a substitute for a calibrated yield analysis.
