The average Airbnb or VRBO in Villavicencio generates COP14.6M per year. High-performing properties earn COP55.2M/year, while low-performing properties earn COP5.0M/year. With supply declining while overall revenue falls faster, the market faces structural headwinds rather than cyclical softness. The wide performance spread—high earners generating nearly 4x average returns—suggests differentiation matters significantly in a market where 13% occupancy indicates substantial unutilized capacity.

Short-term rental regulations vary by jurisdiction in the Villavicencio area. I don't have reliable current data on short-term rental regulations or enforcement realities for Villavicencio, Acacías, and Granada (Colombia). These smaller Colombian cities likely have minimal formal STR frameworks, but I cannot confirm specific permit requirements, occupancy rules, density limits, or actual enforcement practices without access to local municipal codes and on-the-ground enforcement information. I recommend contacting local tourism offices or municipal governments directly for accurate regulatory details. Always verify current regulations with local authorities and obtain necessary permits before operating a short-term rental.
