On our Europe tour, we decided to make Skopje home for a few weeks! One of the main reason is because I needed to renew my passport which is much faster outside the country.⁣
⁣
Other than that, we didn’t really know what to expect. There weren't many blogs or videos about being digital nomads here. We could only find 1 coworking space in the area but there were plenty of cafes to visit! There’s a huge cafe culture which is always nice.⁣

Figuring out where to live can be difficult as a d Figuring out where to live can be difficult as a digital nomad. Medellin is a big city to navigate but there were some areas that stood out to us. ⁣
⁣
We moved from Laureles to El Poblado in March to truly answer the question “Which neighborhood is best for digital nomads?” - there seems to always be a debate (for good reason). If you read our blog post on where to stay, you’ll know our answer 😉⁣
⁣
If you hate working from home - you’ll love your ‘office’ options in Poblado! There are endless cafes, coworking spaces and free coworking zones in the mall (yes, free!). @elopenspace, @pergaminocafe and El Tesoro Mall are some of the faves!⁣
⁣
Medellin, Colombia continued to impress us and we’re so glad we ended up staying here for 4 months in 2022!⁣

Settling into a new country as digital nomads isn’t always easy…⁣
⁣
…We spent our first full month in Medellin, Colombia going through a list of things to sort out for ourselves (per usual).⁣
⁣
It might look like we just land in a country and have everything sorted by day 1 but that’s certainly not the case.⁣
⁣
In each country as digital nomads, you have to:⁣
- Buy a local SIM card (or find an eSIM solution - @airalocom & @realnomadtravel are our faves)⁣
- Find your local grocery store⁣
- Get connected with the digital nomad community (constantly putting ourselves out there)⁣
- Figure out where to work (coworking vs cafes)⁣
- Plan the activities we want to do while visiting the country⁣
- And so much more!⁣
⁣
We heard so much about Medellin for digital nomads, we just had to check out what all the buzz was about (especially as we run a blog for digital nomads).⁣
⁣
This was also my (Ashley’s) birthday month and we went paragliding for the first time (2nd pic). We flew with @paraglidingmedellin 💯 I absolutely loved it - if you get the chance, it was a great experience!⁣

…lying on the beach in Thailand, one of our favorite places in the world. 🌴⁣

Instead, we were touring a couple more US cities: Phoenix, San Francisco and Miami! At this point, we didn’t know how our year would look but we just needed to nail down our next location as digital nomads.⁣
⁣
How did we do that? Simply go on Google flights, enter Miami (where we currently were) and don’t add a destination! There was one place that popped up that was high on our digital nomad destination list - Medellin, Colombia! 🇨🇴⁣

For $245.15 USD total, Matthew and I hopped on a 2 hour plane ride to a country (and continent) we’ve never stepped foot on before! 🥹⁣

Well, that's the truth...🤷🏻‍♀️ ⠀ Dig Well, that's the truth...🤷🏻‍♀️
⠀
Digital nomad life isn’t for everyone.

There are days you’ll feel excited to live in a new country every couple of months, ready to learn about other cultures & always inspired by fellow digital nomads you meet on the road. 

But there are days where you’ll feel lonely, stuck, miserable and exhausted from moving and/or always making new friends. 

This digital nomad lifestyle is no way perfect, as it may look. But…

We wouldn’t have it any other way 🤍

Coworking Merida? Here’s The 3x Best Spaces To Work From

Category Digital Nomad, Merida, Mexico Updated on March 24, 2023

"This post may contain affiliate links. If you use these links to buy something, we may receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. Thanks for your support."

As the digital nomad movement grows, we are starting to see more and more coworking spaces pop up everywhere in the world…

…And coworking in Merida is no exception!

While there is so much to do in Merida, sometimes you just have to put your head down and work. A coworking space allows you to focus, have access to fast and reliable wifi and possibly meet some new friends.

We spent almost a month as Merida digital nomads and we had a great apartment that we mostly worked from. However, we wanted to test out the coworking spaces like we usually do wherever we go. We tested a couple and here’s our list of the 3 best coworking Merida has to offer. 

What Makes A Coworking Space Great?

You might be wondering, “how do I know if it’s a good coworking space?”. It’s a great question to ask because you’re going to spend most of your weekdays there and obviously pay for a membership.

coworking san cristobal de las casas

Here are the top 3 criteria we look at when considering to join a coworking space: 

  1. Comfortable desks and chairs: That’s right – digital nomads don’t actually work from the beach. Matthew and I would join a space over another if they had spacious desks and ergonomic chairs. It does make a difference for us and we prefer to be comfortable since we usually work around 6 hours a day.
  2. Fast and reliable wifi: The last thing you want is to be on a Zoom meeting call and it suddenly drops off! As digital nomads, it’s our responsibility to book and join coworking spaces that have reliable wifi for our clients, employers, etc. When we were digital nomads in Asia, the average speeds were between 40-200 Mbps. While were Latin American digital nomads, the average wifi speeds were slower at around 10-100 Mbps.
  3. Vibrant community with events: Loneliness is one of the most common reasons why digital nomads quit life on the road. That’s why it’s so vital to immerse yourself in a digital nomad community. Coworking spaces are an easy place to make new friends and join events that you’re interested in. 

Now that you know all the things that make a coworking space great, here’s a list of the best coworking Merida has to offer.

3 Best Coworking Merida Mexico

Are you planning on becoming a Merida digital nomad? We absolutely loved our time there and wish we could have stayed longer. Merida is dubbed as the safest place to live in Mexico – no wonder it’s got so many tourists and digital nomads flocking there each year.

With the rise of digital nomads, there have been more and more coworking spaces in Merida. While we were living in Merida, we mostly worked from home with our other digital nomad friends but we did set out a couple of days to test out the coworking Merida has to offer. 

Here’s what all 3 of the best coworking spaces in Merida have:

  • Fast wifi.
  • Friendly staff.
  • Comfortable seating.
  • Reasonable pricing options.

Let’s get started and find you a space to focus and get some real work done. Note: I’ve also added a couple of cafes you can work from below in case coworking spaces aren’t your thing.

1. Conexion60 Coworking Merida 

This is our #1 coworking space in Merida!

 We spent a day working from Conexion60 and after trying Playa del Carmen coworking spaces and San Cristobal de las Casas coworking spaces – we can confirm this is a true competitor. 

conexion60 coworking space merida

Conexion60 was a little difficult for us to find at first and we spent a good 15 minutes searching all around Paseo 60. We called the lovely receptionist and she guided us to the right spot. The entrance is located next to Merci Paseo 60 restaurant and you have to sign in then head up the elevator to access the coworking space.

A lovely staff member greeted us and she spoke great English! She told us everything that was included like coffee, water, tea, etc then clearly explained the membership options. They do offer office spaces, meeting rooms and call booths.

conexion60 coworking merida wifi speeds

 

We thought the coworking space was very spacious, clean and had comfortable desks/chairs for everyone. The design of the space might have been a little too corporate for me but it’s fine since they didn’t sacrifice on good desk/chairs. We were so impressed with the wifi speeds and we could tell there was a digital nomad community right away.

conexion60 pricing options

This coworking space in Merida is open 24/7 in case you need to work European time zones and offers great security throughout the building. Conexion60 is an ideal space to get stuff done and we believe it’s one of the best coworking Merida has to offer you!

USD Price for Conexion60 Coworking Merida:

  • Day Pass: $10
  • 12 Day Pass: $98
  • Monthly Pass: $171

Hours: Monday to Sunday; 24/7

Wifi Speed: 80+ Mbps

Community: Definitely exists but didn’t see any upcoming events

Desk & Chairs: Modern and extremely comfortable

2. Terraza60 Coworking Merida

If you want a more relaxed, boho-chic aesthetic for a coworking space in Merida then Terazza60 is probably the one for you. They have an outdoor seating terrace area where you can work from a picnic table and enjoy the sunshine. 

terraza60 coworking merida interior

What happens when it gets too hot? There’s an inside area that has a couple of desks and ergonomic chairs to suffice. The coworking in Merida also includes coffee and water, air-conditioning, parking and it’s pet-friendly too! 

terraza60 coworking desks

Terrazza60 isn’t the biggest coworking space but it certainly doesn’t give off any corporate vibes. You can focus and get work done here but with the decor, you’ll still be reminded that you’re in tropical Merida, Mexico!

terraza60 coworking merida pricing options

I think the pricing is a little steep for what you get especially when you compare it to Conexion60 but it’s still a great alternative if that corporate style is not your thing.

USD Price for Terraza60 Coworking Merida:

  • Day Pass: $10
  • 1 Week Pass: $44
  • 1 Month Pass: $123
  • 6 Months Pass: $682

Hours: Monday to Friday; 9am – 6pm

Internet Speed: 30+ Mbps

Community: Vibrant with events like art workshops

Desk & Chairs: Mix of ergonomic chairs and picnic tables

3. Enter Work Coworking Merida

Enter_Work is a new, modern coworking space that has quickly earned its spot on this list. 

enterwork coworking merida

This co-working space in Merida is located 25 minutes drive from the Centro Historico. If you’re willing to take an Uber or live somewhere nearby – you’re in for a treat! Enter_Work have several different membership options:

enterwork pricing options

This Merida coworking space is also open 24/7, parking, coffee and tea, ergonomic furniture and some common spaces for everyone to mingle. While the internet speed might not be the fastest of the 3, the clean and beautiful space makes it worth it.

USD Price for Enter_Work Coworking Merida:

  • Meeting rooms: from $10
  • Monthly Pass: from $98

Hours: Monday to Sunday; 24/7

Wifi Speed: 20+ Mbps

Community: Tad corporate but knowledgable workshops

Desk & Chairs: Super modern and clearly ergonomic furniture 

Bonus: Rrom Coworking Merida

Rrom coworking Merida is actually where we tried to go first but it was closed for repairs. We were looking forward to working from Rrom because it seemed like the best space in terms of value for money. On their Google listing, it says temporarily closed but I still have hopes that it open back one day soon.

Merida Cafes To Work From For Digital Nomads

Is coworking not your thing? That’s okay! There are plenty of cafes in Merida that have great coffee and a good space to work from. They all have good wifi, decent seats and even better coffee!

Here are some of the best cafes in Merida:

Marago Coffee

This Merida cafe had one of the best cups of coffee we had! But is it suitable to work from? Yes!

marago coffee merida cafe

avocado toast marago coffee

The tables are pretty spacious, there are a couple of plugs inside and the wifi is decent. It’s located on the beautiful Paseo de Montejo avenue which is always a nice walk. TIP: The only thing is they are a popular breakfast spot so you’re likely to get a better seat if you go in the afternoon.

Open Monday-Sundays: 8am-9:30pm

Manifesto Casa Tostadora Calabrese

Another place known for its delicious cup of coffee. This is one of the most popular cafes in Merida and it certainly lives up to the hype. They have a spacious building, good tables to work from and stable wifi to get work done.

Open Monday-Saturdays: 8am-9pm; Sundays: 8am-2pm

Voltacafe Santa Lucia

Need a big cup of cappuccino? Volctacafe has you covered. They have great indoor and outdoor seating options in case you want to switch up your work environment. This is an ideal space for a digital nomad to work from if you want to work, drink coffee and they also have a great food menu in case you feel like lunch! Voltacafe is open till 10:30pm so it’s a great option if you need to work at night.

Open Monday-Sundays: 8am-10:30pm 

Conclusion: The Best Coworking Merida Has To Offer

We’re grateful that the digital nomad movement has made its way to the wonderful city of Merida, Mexico. Why? 

Coworking spaces are popping up everywhere – making remote work much more convenient for anyone who needs to get work done on their travels. Our favorite coworking in Merida was definitely Conexion60 and it’s worth getting a day pass to try it out for yourself. 

Merida is definitely an underrated digital nomad city that deserves a little time in the limelight. We enjoyed being Merida digital nomads and think it has the potential to rise on the hotspot list.

Figuring out where to live can be difficult as a d Figuring out where to live can be difficult as a digital nomad. Medellin is a big city to navigate but there were some areas that stood out to us. ⁣
⁣
We moved from Laureles to El Poblado in March to truly answer the question “Which neighborhood is best for digital nomads?” - there seems to always be a debate (for good reason). If you read our blog post on where to stay, you’ll know our answer 😉⁣
⁣
If you hate working from home - you’ll love your ‘office’ options in Poblado! There are endless cafes, coworking spaces and free coworking zones in the mall (yes, free!). @elopenspace, @pergaminocafe and El Tesoro Mall are some of the faves!⁣
⁣
Medellin, Colombia continued to impress us and we’re so glad we ended up staying here for 4 months in 2022!⁣

Settling into a new country as digital nomads isn’t always easy…⁣
⁣
…We spent our first full month in Medellin, Colombia going through a list of things to sort out for ourselves (per usual).⁣
⁣
It might look like we just land in a country and have everything sorted by day 1 but that’s certainly not the case.⁣
⁣
In each country as digital nomads, you have to:⁣
- Buy a local SIM card (or find an eSIM solution - @airalocom & @realnomadtravel are our faves)⁣
- Find your local grocery store⁣
- Get connected with the digital nomad community (constantly putting ourselves out there)⁣
- Figure out where to work (coworking vs cafes)⁣
- Plan the activities we want to do while visiting the country⁣
- And so much more!⁣
⁣
We heard so much about Medellin for digital nomads, we just had to check out what all the buzz was about (especially as we run a blog for digital nomads).⁣
⁣
This was also my (Ashley’s) birthday month and we went paragliding for the first time (2nd pic). We flew with @paraglidingmedellin 💯 I absolutely loved it - if you get the chance, it was a great experience!⁣

2022 didn’t start off as we expected…⁣
⁣
…lying on the beach in Thailand, one of our favorite places in the world. 🌴⁣
⁣
Instead, we were touring a couple more US cities: Phoenix, San Francisco and Miami! At this point, we didn’t know how our year would look but we just needed to nail down our next location as digital nomads.⁣
⁣
How did we do that? Simply go on Google flights, enter Miami (where we currently were) and don’t add a destination! There was one place that popped up that was high on our digital nomad destination list - Medellin, Colombia! 🇨🇴⁣
⁣
For $245.15 USD total, Matthew and I hopped on a 2 hour plane ride to a country (and continent) we’ve never stepped foot on before! 🥹⁣
⁣
We were tired of flying and traveling (faster than usual) and we decided to make Medellin our base for a few months but that’s for the next couple of posts to come…⁣

Well, that's the truth...🤷🏻‍♀️ ⠀ Dig Well, that's the truth...🤷🏻‍♀️

Digital nomad life isn’t for everyone.

There are days you’ll feel excited to live in a new country every couple of months, ready to learn about other cultures & always inspired by fellow digital nomads you meet on the road. 

But there are days where you’ll feel lonely, stuck, miserable and exhausted from moving and/or always making new friends. 

This digital nomad lifestyle is no way perfect, as it may look. But…

We wouldn’t have it any other way 🤍
