Community

Gato Azul focuses on fostering real encounters rather than simply having people live and work side by side. The space aims to create connections between digital nomads through changing activities during high season (November to March), including Monday dinners, yoga sessions, and skill sharing sessions. The community emphasizes enjoying cultural life and adventures in nature together, supported by community managers who facilitate these interactions.

Location

Calle León, 41, 38300 La Orotava, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Spain

Gato Azul is situated right in the heart of La Orotava, a historic Canary town known for its well-preserved traditional architecture — with carved wooden balconies and facades reminiscent of Latin America. The coliving occupies a beautiful ancient townhouse, and the rooftop terrace offers panoramic views over the entire Orotava Valley and out to the sea.

The surrounding streets are charming and walkable, with local shops, cafés, and restaurants just steps away. Guests describe the location as quiet yet well-connected, free from the overwhelming tourist noise found in more popular resort areas. A large supermarket (Mercadona) is reportedly just a 3-minute walk away, and two public gardens are nearby.

La Orotava sits on the slopes of Mount Teide, making it an excellent base for exploring the island's natural landscapes. The town itself offers a rich cultural scene, with the historic old town, theatre, and nightlife all within easy reach.
