María Mayordomo founded Cactus Coliving out of her deep love for the nature of the Canary Islands. The coliving emerged from a vision to create authentic experiences that connect people with the unique volcanic landscapes, rich cultural heritage, and peaceful island life of La Gomera.
At Cactus Coliving, "Community as a way of life" is more than just a motto—it's the foundation of everything they do. They believe coliving is about creating experiences that bring people together, transforming a house into a home and strangers into family.
Shared activities foster deep emotional connections among nomads, making them feel seen, heard, and valued. Through conscious community-building activities like group meditations, storytelling circles, and deep-dive discussions, colivers open up, share their journeys, and support one another. These moments bridge cultural differences and create lasting friendships, making coliving a space of emotional safety and mutual understanding.
The community embraces weekly rituals like family dinners, sunset dance circles, and intention-setting gatherings that create a rhythm to life in coliving, making each stay feel more personal and immersive.
Cactus La Gomera is situated in the heart of San Sebastián de La Gomera, the island's capital, known for its narrow cobbled streets and colonial architecture. The area is steeped in history — Christopher Columbus stopped here before his voyage to the Americas — and the town retains an authentic, lived-in character year-round, far from the over-touristic crowds found elsewhere in the Canaries.
The coliving is surrounded by volcanic black sand beaches, local farmers' markets, and a vibrant café and restaurant scene, all within a short stroll. The wider island is a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, with Garajonay National Park — a UNESCO World Heritage site of ancient laurel forests — just 30 minutes away.
Guests consistently describe the setting as calm and peaceful, with beautiful sunrises, magnificent mountain trails, and a genuine local atmosphere where neighbors greet you in the street.
