Private rooms, shared common areas, and a community that trains. A coliving is shared housing for people with a similar rhythm; the sport part is what everyone here has in common. What that means in practice.
People who train regularly and work remotely, most of them staying a month or longer. Thirteen rooms across three buildings, a few minutes' walk apart. An honest look at who fits well here.
The fullest the houses were in 2025: nine at U32, five at P21, four at the J48 Penthouse, each counting one or two couples. The three houses.
We want everyone here to be able to talk to everyone else. So we had to pick one language and make sure that every member of the community speaks it. Almost everyone here speaks two or more anyway, and when the conversation before a stay runs in another one, the host still asks about this one. It is the language this website is written in.
Yes - feel free to invite visitors. If you invite two or more people from outside the coliving, or someone for an overnight stay, please check with the host beforehand.
The whole place is smoke-free, indoors and outdoors, including every terrace and balcony. It covers cigarettes and vapes, and equally marijuana, shisha and anything else that is burned. Candles are the exception. Our clean air policy.
As a rule, no. Exceptions are rare, happen only in the J48 Penthouse, and only with the agreement of the residents staying there. Nobody who booked a home without animals ends up sharing one with an allergy they never agreed to.
As a rule, no. Exceptions are rare, happen only in the J48 Penthouse, and only with the agreement of the residents staying there. A minor comes only together with a parent. The rule behind this and behind pets is the same: your stay stays what you booked, and changing it needs your agreement, not only ours.
The host, Thomas, lives in the J48 Penthouse, 250 metres from the other two houses, and stand-ins are organised for the times he is off the island. For anything urgent, reach us on WhatsApp rather than the landline. How to reach us.
Eleven have a page of their own: acroyoga, yoga, handstand training, climbing and bouldering, beach volleyball, swimming, rescueboarding, running, cycling, ice bathing and pole dance. Around them the island adds what we do not run ourselves - hiking from sea level into the pine forest, surfing, stand-up paddle, windsurfing and kitesurfing, sailing and diving, padel, highline, table tennis on the promenade. Each one, with where it happens and who runs it.
They are part of your stay. Up to 8 activities a month are organised when enough people are interested: yoga, handstand training, acroyoga, calisthenics, run and brunch, ice bathing and hiking. Nothing is mandatory. Community life and weekly activities.
The sport rooftop terrace with tatami and acro mats, pull-up bars in all three buildings, weights, a battle rope, a volleyball set, a racing bike and a stationary bike. Free for everyone living here, no booking and no key. Where to find it.
No, and that is on purpose. The bike is there for training and for everyone, not for standing chained up somewhere unused - and bikes do get stolen in Las Palmas. If you want a bike to get around town, Sítycleta is the better answer. Bikes here, in three ways.
No. Take it, with the right ball. What comes with it is the responsibility that it gets back. The one piece of equipment you do have to ask about is the rescue board, because we show you the basics and the risks first.
Every room comes furnished with a desk, monitor, and office chair. Residents have access to a coworking area, communal kitchen, sport equipment, and the rooftop terrace. Weekly cleaning of common areas and a full room clean at check-in and check-out are included. The full list.
No. Linen and towels come with the room, along with the bed, wardrobe, desk, office chair, external monitor and a yoga mat. Every room door locks. What's included in your stay.
Spain, including the Canary Islands, runs on the same sockets as most of continental Europe, 230 volts, so a plug from there fits as it is. Bring an adapter if you are coming from the UK, Ireland, Switzerland or the US. Each desk has a power strip on it, and you can ask for a second one.
No. Every room is private and has one bed, most of them wide enough for two. When two people sleep in a room, it is because they belong together.
Some rooms have one. At U32 three of the seven rooms are ensuite, and the other four share three complete bathrooms, which usually means three to five people per bathroom. At P21 three to five people share two complete bathrooms. At the J48 Penthouse two to four people share one complete bathroom, a guest toilet and an outdoor shower. The shared bathroom situation.
Every house has an oven, stove, microwave, fridge, freezer, kettle, toaster, blender, dishwasher, a moka pot and a V60 for hand-filtered coffee. Filtered water, coffee and tea are available at all times. Groceries and meals are yours to buy and cook. The full list.
Yes, in every house: two at U32 for its seven rooms, one at P21 for its four bedrooms, and one at J48 for its three. The full list.
The first two washes per started week and per guest are free, including detergent. Each additional wash costs €1. For the water, the cost and the waiting time of the others, please do not run the machine with just a tiny amount of laundry.
Between two rooms, and between a room and the kitchen or living room, the wall carries an extra 4 cm of sound insulation. Sound still finds the indirect way through doors, windows and hallways, so it is quiet rather than silent.
No, we leave it out for environmental reasons. Fans are there and get plenty of use in summer. In winter, with 20 to 22°C during the day, they mostly stay in the cupboard. What the seasons are like here.
It is not needed. Nights in Las Palmas hardly ever drop below 14°C, winter included, and warmer blankets are there if you want one. The seasons here, month by month.
Every room has its own lock. Keep valuables with you or in your locked room. Nothing has gone missing so far, and we still take no responsibility for private belongings left in the common areas.
Yes. If nobody is in to take it, the letter or parcel waits for you at the post office 300 metres away.
Ask us. A lot of what we own never made it onto the website, and some of it sits at another one of the three houses or in storage. Suggestions are welcome too, as long as the thing would be useful to other guests as well. Ask before you book or after you arrive, both work.
Yes. The internet connection has 500-1000 MBit, and 6 hotspots distributed over the house ensure fast WiFi in every room. Additionally, every room comes with a desk, external monitor, and office chair - so you can take video calls in private. For focused work there is also a silent-area coworking space with eight desks, three of them height-adjustable, plus a walking pad and an under-desk bike. Over a hundred people have worked from here, and the setup has grown with what they needed.
Yes, and the house is built around it. During normal working hours the focus here is work; events happen outside them. Music runs through headphones, and when it does run through a speaker on the roof terrace, it is not at a volume you hear in the coworking room. You can close your own door, or let the focused atmosphere of the silent area carry you. Working in the living room or the dining area, where a good conversation can interrupt you, is a choice you make on purpose. How the workspaces are split.
In your room, where the door closes and you can talk at a normal volume. The coworking room at U32 is a silent area: no calls, no speakerphone. That is what keeps it worth sitting in. Silent area coworking.
Every room has a Full HD monitor that takes HDMI or USB-C, on a desk with a power strip. The coworking room has more of them, and a keyboard, a mouse and mousepads are there to borrow. The coworking area.
Between €489 and €2396 per month, depending on the room, the season and how many of you come. €489 is a five-month stay from May to September in one of our most economic rooms, for one person. €2396 is one month from 25 December to 25 January in our best room, the most expensive time of the year, for two people in the same room. Weekly cleaning, linen and towels, filtered water, coffee and tea, the coworking space and all sport equipment are included. The price for any period is on our prices page.
Because almost nothing comes on top. The room is furnished down to the desk, office chair and external monitor, and the price carries internet, water, coffee and tea, weekly cleaning of the common areas, linen and towels, two washes a week, the sport equipment and the organised activities. There is no furniture to buy, no contract for electricity or internet, no deposit for a utility company, and no flat to leave behind painted. What a shared apartment adds up to once all of that is counted is the honest comparison. The full list.
Most people stay a month or longer. The coliving is built around people who settle in for a while, not around short city breaks. Get in touch with your dates and we will tell you what is possible. Tell us your dates.
Send us your dates and we tell you which rooms are free for them. If it fits on both sides, you get a contract, and rent and deposit are due before check-in. See the price for your dates or get in touch.
Yes: one monthly rent, or half the total rent when that is less.
Cancel at least two days before your stay starts and half the deposit comes back, so you lose at most a quarter of the total rent. From two days before the start, the deposit stays with us. If you shorten a stay that has already begun, the rent for the cancelled nights is reduced by how much notice you gave.
Yes, as long as the room is still free. Extending costs less than booking the extra time as a new stay, and more than booking the longer stay from the start. Tick "I already live here and want to extend my stay" on the price page to see what yours comes to.
Check-in from 14:00, check-out by 11:00. Check-out means your room is empty and the key is handed back; you are welcome to stay in the common areas after that. Tell us when you land.
Yes. Check-in is self-service via a keybox, so you can arrive at any time, day or night. Please note that for a late arrival both your rent and your deposit need to have reached us by the day before. We send you the access details and directions in advance, and we just ask that you enter quietly on a late arrival, as others may already be asleep.
Yes, on request, once rent and deposit have been paid in full. Ask us.
A taxi from the rank outside arrivals, or the bus to Santa Catalina and a short walk. Three ways, with what each one costs and takes.
By arrangement, and in practice it rarely is a problem: either the host or one of the residents is around. Tell us when you land.
No. Almost nobody here rents one for the whole stay, and inside the city a car barely saves time once you count the search for a parking space - by bike you are often faster. The beach is a few minutes on foot, the rest of the island is reachable by bus, and a city bike subscription costs a few euros a month. A rental pays off for a day in the mountains. Getting around with and without a car has the times, the prices and where to park.
Yes. Rental shops around the city, the Sítycleta bike-sharing network for €3.34 a month, and one coliving bike that hangs over the desk at the main house. Getting around by bike.
Parking in the streets around the houses is allowed and free, but you have to look for a space. Alternatively you can rent a spot in a car park nearby for about €15 a day or €110 a month - and if you rent the car from a company in Las Palmas, you can usually leave it parked there. The details are here.
Because of beach, nature and city: three things that normally lie far apart are within minutes of each other here. The sand of Playa de Las Canteras is a 300 to 450 metre walk away. After 900 metres from U32 you leave the city behind and are in nature: El Confital, with its stone beach, its hikes and its trail runs. The city with its cafés, shops and market lies in the other direction. Anywhere else in Las Palmas you give one of the three up. The districts, one by one.
Guanarteme is the surf corner, Las Canteras is the beach itself, La Isleta keeps the beach but adds the nature of El Confital, Triana and Vegueta are the old city with the culture and the cafés, and Ciudad Jardín is the green, quiet one. Which fits you depends on what you plan to do most days. A paragraph on each.
The neighbourhood is residential and stays populated in the evening, and nights are usually quiet - this is not a party area. We have hosted dozens of solo female travellers and ask every guest how they are getting on; nobody has ever told us they felt unsafe here. Two honest exceptions on noise: Carnival in February and events in October can be heard from the J48 penthouse. See the guide article on evenings in the neighbourhood for more.
Las Palmas keeps a stable rhythm all year, with daytime temperatures usually between 25 and 29°C in summer and 20 to 22°C in winter. November to March is the busy half: that is when Europeans come here for the warmth. Summer is the quiet one, and southern Europeans in particular find Las Palmas fresher than their own countries are in August. Not many people know that yet, which is why May to September is by far the better value. Seasons, energy and city life.
Las Palmas has one of the steadiest temperature curves in the world, and La Isleta stands at the front of it: the wind comes off the Atlantic and reaches our peninsula first. The south of the island is hotter through the day, the mountains fall further at night, and here the number barely moves - usually 25 to 29°C by day in summer and 20 to 22°C in winter. Even on the coldest winter nights it rarely drops below 14°C. One thing to know when you look it up: a lot of services report Las Palmas from the station at the airport, 20 kilometres south of us. The nearest forecast point to the houses is Puerto de la Luz, a few hundred metres away.
Calima is the weather event where southeasterly winds carry fine dust from the Sahara across to the islands. On rare occasions, like February 2020, the sky turns orange. A level at which the air is no longer fresh enough for a cardio session outdoors is reached maybe two to four times a year. After a few days it is over, or at least back down low enough. Each of our three houses has its own air purifier, and the dust load can be read hour by hour on Windy, so you know in advance whether today is a day for training inside. What Calima is, the thresholds we go by, and how the purifier is used.
Dozens of open events run in the city every week: casual meetups for drinks and conversation, evenings for creatives, tech people and entrepreneurs, and sport rounds for running, climbing, acroyoga, hiking, dancing and many more that anyone can join. In Las Palmas there are also dozens of open groups by topic, for digital nomads, expats, and people who are simply here to have a good time. With that many going on, the question is not whether you meet people but which ones - you can pick by what you are into and what matters to you. Ask us and we will name the ones that fit you.Inside our Sport Coliving, connecting does not even need a meetup: it may happen during a coffee break, in your sport session on the roof, while you are sunbathing, and often on arrival, before you have even reached your room. How community life here works.
Go to events regularly and you can meet hundreds of remote workers and founders here within a few months. Most people stop well before that, once they have found the ones they want to spend more time with. The clearest measure is the free Slack community Live it up, Las Palmas!: over 10,000 members, and more than 20 events posted there in a normal week.
