Puerto Rico experienced a tourism boom this summer, with Airbnb reporting a $560 million economic impact from Bad Bunny's concert residency. Over 10,000 hosts welcomed 550,000 guests from 1,300 cities and 108 countries during the three-month period. Searches for stays in Puerto Rico increased by over 140% after the musician announced his residency dates. The surge in tourism extended to smaller towns and rural areas, benefiting local hosts and businesses across the island. Airbnb highlighted the role of local hosts in promoting economic development and showcasing Puerto Rico as a destination for music, culture, and authentic experiences.
