Designed for those who say “bon dia!”. This is how Turisme Nacional is defined , the first Airbnb designed only to promote tourism within the Catalan Countries.
To do so, it seeks to enable accommodations to offer tighter-than-average prices with two strategies. First, hosts must ensure that their accommodations are not rented cheaper on other platforms. And to encouragel o, commissions are lower than those of giants like Booking or Airbnb, eliminating unnecessary fees that tend to inflate the final price.
The idea is, beyond pricing, to foster a commitment to local culture. Hosts commit to receive guests in Catalan, and guests must be willing to understand and respect the use of the language. In addition, the website is entirely in Catalan, although they offer resources for those who have not yet mastered the language.
Currently, the project is still in the development phase and the website is still being tested, but you can register for free, either as a user or as a host. The idea is that in a few months everything will be ready for you to enjoy this unique experience.
So, if you’re looking for a way to travel that is respectful and authentic, Turisme Nacional invites you to “Gaudir del país fent país.” Get ready to discover the charms of the Països Catalans in a way that respects and celebrates its unique culture. See you around!
