The formulas
- Available nights = days in the period − blocked nights
- Occupancy rate = booked nights ÷ available nights × 100
- Average nightly rate = revenue ÷ booked nights
- RevPAR = revenue ÷ available nights
Example: over 30 days, with no blocked night, 21 booked nights for €2,100 give 70% occupancy, €100 per booked night and €70 per available night.

Frequently asked questions
How do you calculate a vacation rental's occupancy rate?
Divide the number of booked nights by the number of nights available for rent over the period, then multiply by 100. Nights you block for yourself or for works do not count as available.
What is RevPAR?
Revenue per available night: the period's revenue divided by the number of available nights. It combines occupancy and average rate, and lets you compare two periods or two properties.
Should you aim for 100% occupancy?
Not necessarily. A very high occupancy rate often means prices are too low. Track RevPAR instead: it rises when you earn more per available night, through occupancy or price.
