About Coliving 1907

Coliving 1907 is located in a house classified as Historical Heritage of the Canary Islands and built in 1907 in the heart of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. It has 8 fully equipped rooms that have been carefully renovated to preserve their original spirit while providing the best comforts for a pleasant stay.

Origin story

Raquel Villalobos opened Coliving 1907 in November 2021 after eight months of hard work and dedication. At the age of 40, she felt her professional path needed a change and saw the opportunity to open coliving. The house belonged to her family - her great-grandfather, who was born in Cuba, had the house built in 1907. Her maternal grandparents and her mother lived there. The main floor was used for bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen and living rooms, while the ground floor housed her grandfather's office, who managed farms with coffee and fruit trees. The renovation was done with great care and two fundamental objectives: to maintain the essence and spirit of the house and to make it comfortable and useful for living and working.

Community philosophy

Coliving 1907 creates a community that feels like a small family with a very familiar, calm, respectful and friendly dynamic. The focus is on making colivers feel at home from the very first moment, providing more than just a community but a family with whom residents feel comfortable from arrival. Every month different events are organized both for people living in the coliving and for nomads in the city, with many events arising spontaneously during the week. The philosophy emphasizes that while it's not necessary to be together all the time, there will always be someone available for a good time and a nice conversation. The approach centers on connecting people from different cultures, with different ways of thinking, different traditions, different ways of life and different opinions, creating an enriching environment.
