When people first hear about Bitcoin adoption in Central America, El Salvador’s Bitcoin Beach almost always comes to mind. It’s the place that sparked a global conversation — a little surf town called El Zonte, where Bitcoin started flowing through local businesses long before the rest of the world paid attention. Bitcoin Beach quickly grew into a powerful symbol of what’s possible when a community embraces decentralized money. Surfboards, beach cafés, and Bitcoin wallets became part of daily life, and eventually, the movement helped inspire El Salvador to become the first country to make Bitcoin legal tender.
But just a bit further south, here in Costa Rica, something equally exciting is unfolding. The Bitcoin Jungle movement, though less famous (for now), is a grassroots effort with its own unique flavor. Rooted deeply in community empowerment and sustainability, Bitcoin Jungle is spreading through Costa Rica’s lush southern zone, connecting farmers, artisans, small businesses, and eco-conscious travelers alike. Here, Bitcoin isn’t just a novel idea — it’s a practical tool for fostering local economies and building resilience in a rapidly changing world.
At Casa Roja, we’re proud to be part of this story. Bitcoin Boca is our own small but growing hub within the wider Bitcoin Jungle. Tucked away at the mouth of the Sierpe River, we’ve created a place where travelers can experience the beauty of Costa Rica while participating in this new economic movement. Whether you’re a seasoned Bitcoiner or just starting to explore, you can pay for your stay, enjoy meals, and even head out on adventure tours — all with Bitcoin.
What makes the Costa Rican experience stand out is the way Bitcoin blends so naturally with the rhythms of life here. In Costa Rica, there’s no national mandate or top-down policy. Instead, the Bitcoin community grows organically, driven by people who value freedom, sustainability, and personal connection. It’s not about headlines — it’s about quietly transforming the way we interact with money in daily life.
At Casa Roja and Bitcoin Boca, we welcome you to be part of this journey. Here, you’ll find pristine nature, warm hospitality, and a chance to see firsthand how Bitcoin is creating new opportunities for locals and visitors alike. Whether or not you’ve been to Bitcoin Beach, we invite you to come and experience the next chapter of this story — one that’s unfolding in the jungles and river mouths of southern Costa Rica.
Book your stay at Casa Roja and discover Bitcoin Boca for yourself. The future is closer than you think.
