Places where you can travel paying with Bitcoin in 2025

[d5000]

I'm not so fond of adding single restaurants and much less store chains unrelated to travel to this thread.

Bitcoin-accepting hotels, as they are much rarer than restaurants, instead are encouraged.

I would also focus on cities and regions and not entire countries if possible. Bhutan, Switzerland and El Salvador were already mentioned a couple of times. Some of the last posts did contain some interesting info but they also repeat a lot that is already known ...

[S item 9]

 DUBAI WAS THE FIRST CITY IN THE UAE TO ACCEPT #BITCOIN .
MORE ADOPTION IS COMING.

Bitcoin-accepting hotels, as they are much rarer than restaurants, instead are encouraged.

Although hotels and restaurants that accept bitcoin are relatively rare, many countries around the world are now accepting bitcoin. Hotel and restaurant owners have now understood how to modernize their businesses. Since crypto payments are a modern means of transaction in the modern era, they do not have to carry a lot of money with them. Everyone feels comfortable and can make transactions in a very short time, so they are becoming interested in accepting Bitcoin/crypto payments day by day.

I also know about Panama City, where Bitcoin/crypto payments are accepted for travel. They accept Bitcoin and Ethereum payments.



Panama City Will Accept Bitcoin, Ethereum as Payment for Public Services

If it gets things done - why not?

I think everybody is in plus from such an opportunity, and if it's regulated, taxes would be still be there for the party that works from the official side of the business.

More ways to pay = more potential for the customers.

Seeing all this natural environment makes me very jealous and regretful. If only our country had such facilities, we could travel to such beautiful natural beauty-rich places in exchange for Bitcoin. Unfortunately, I have not yet had the opportunity to travel to any place where Bitcoin is available for travel. And it is impossible in our country because Bitcoin has been banned by the government and central bank. If tourist attractions in my country were to accept payment in Bitcoin, it would attract many tourists from home and abroad, but the government won't do that. So, it's not possible for me to travel to tourist attractions for now.

GUATEMALA - LAKE ATITLÁN, ANTIGUA GUATEMALA AND SEMUC CHAMPEY

Guatemala is a central American country which attracts tourism, popular places that attracts tourism are semuc champey, Antigua Guatemala, and Lake Atitlán.
Bitcoin has seen grassroots adoption especially some tourist areas like Lake Atitlán, Bitcoin has become popular and is accepted by local businesses as a way to pay for things. This helps people who don't have access to traditional banks.

Curaçao

I was sure I had already seen it here, but it seems not to be the case. A real Caribbean paradise, Curaçao offers incredible sandy beaches bordered by rocks with turquese water. The capital town of Willemstad greets visitors with a very colourful colonial and modern architecture and a nice area around the port which looks like a tropical Northern European town, it reminds me more to Copenhague or Norway than the Netherlands honestly. The island belongs to the Kingdom of the Netherlands so you can expect a first-world service level. For Bitcoiners, there are several acommodation options in Willemstad, more than a dozen restaurants and even more shops that accept Bitcoin.
