Wimberley Tourism and Hosts: 1.3 Million Visitor Days Are Not Rent
Updated: Aug 27
If you mention $97.5 billion at all, mention it as Texas, 2024, Governor / Travel Texas. Then stop, and do not divide it by 638. Do not divide it by 125. Do not divide it by 2,900 people, or by Hays County, or by “Hill Country share.” Those divisions are how thin posts get written. This one will not do that math.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's Wimberley's actual ADR and occupancy, and why shouldn't a host substitute a tourism headline for it?
AirROI's Wimberley file puts the average daily rate at $335 with 33.8 percent occupancy, RevPAR at $117, and median occupancy closer to 32 percent. That's the number to underwrite against, not a visitor-days headline or a neighboring town's average, since visitor-day counts describe regional tourism traffic in general, not booked nights on a specific listing.
Why shouldn't Texas's statewide $97.5 billion tourism figure be divided by Wimberley's population or listing count to estimate local revenue?
Because that kind of division manufactures a number the source data was never built to support. The $97.5 billion and roughly 62 million-traveler figures are Texas statewide totals for 2024 from the Governor's office and Travel Texas, a state-level layer of context, not a per-listing or per-resident revenue calculation. Dividing a statewide figure by 638 listings, 125 lodging establishments, or Wimberley's population is how a thin, unsupported number gets dressed up as local data.
What do the "1.3 million visitor days" and "125 lodging establishments" figures actually represent?
They're a newspaper's paraphrase of local tourism-office figures describing overall visitor traffic and the count of lodging businesses in the city, not a stand-in for AirROI's 638-listing short-term rental sample. The 125-establishment count in particular covers all lodging types in the city, not just short-term rentals, so it shouldn't be treated as interchangeable with the STR-specific listing count.
How big is Hill Country Premier Lodging's share of the Wimberley STR market?
Hill Country Premier Lodging shows 167 listings and about $5.73 million in gross revenue on AirROI's manager table, roughly 26 percent of the 638-listing file if treated as a share of the total sample. That's a meaningful professional-management presence for an independent host to be aware of when benchmarking their own performance against the market.
Should a host blend Wimberley's figures with a neighboring town's revenue data?
No. Each town's figures should stay on their own labeled line rather than getting blended into a single underwriting number, since combining samples from different markets makes a revenue estimate look more supported than it actually is. A lender or buyer packet should carry Wimberley's own labeled year, sample size, and seasonality specifically, not an average pulled across multiple towns.
Where do visitor-attraction photos and countywide or statewide tourism statistics actually belong in a listing or a pitch?
In the demand and marketing context, not on the revenue line next to the property's actual ADR. A busy downtown photo or a statewide tourism statistic can help explain why guests are searching for the area in the first place, but it doesn't replace a listing's own booked-nights and rate data, and the two shouldn't be presented as if they measure the same thing.
What does Wimberley's 638-listing sample size tell a host about the AirROI figures?
It means the $335 ADR and 33.8 percent occupancy figures are drawn from a substantial, town-specific sample rather than a handful of comparable listings, which makes them a more defensible baseline than a countywide or statewide tourism statistic. That sample size is also why Hill Country Premier Lodging's 167 listings can be measured as roughly 26 percent of the total market rather than an unverifiable guess. A host should still treat the figure as a labeled baseline, not a guarantee for any specific property.
Why does the 125 lodging establishments figure matter for a host's underwriting?
That figure covers all lodging types in the city, hotels, motels, and short-term rentals alike, not just the AirROI 638-listing short-term rental sample, so it shouldn't be treated as interchangeable with the STR-specific listing count. Confusing the two makes the supply picture look either more crowded or less crowded than the short-term rental market actually is. Keep the citywide lodging count and the STR-specific sample on separate, clearly labeled lines.
