About Pitaya Coliving

Pitaya Coliving is the first coliving in the island of Lanzarote, located in Arrecife's most charming and vibrant area, El Charco de San Ginés. The coliving connects remote workers with the island's local life, offering experiences to immerse in the tradition and culture of Lanzarote while providing inspirational spaces to connect communities.

Origin story

Pitaya Coliving was established as the first coliving space on the island of Lanzarote, pioneering the concept in this unique Canary Island destination. The founders chose to locate the coliving in El Charco de San Ginés, a historic landmark in Arrecife that represents the union of the ocean with the capital city. This strategic location in the heart of the historic city center places the coliving among charming local bars and restaurants nestled around the lagoon, creating a vibrant atmosphere day and night.

Community philosophy

Pitaya Coliving believes that community grows through connection and focuses on creating meaningful shared experiences among residents. The coliving operates as the biggest and most active remote workers community in Lanzarote, with a mission to offer colivers a genuinely local and immersive experience. Their approach centers on connecting remote workers with the rhythms of island life and local traditions through a weekly calendar full of moments designed to bring people together. The community is built on mutual respect, clear expectations, and shared responsibility, creating a harmonious and enjoyable coliving environment that makes Pitaya a welcoming and inspiring space for everyone.

Calle Jacinto Borges Díaz 57, piso 4, 35500, Arrecife, Las Palmas, Spain

Pitaya Coliving is situated in the heart of Arrecife's historical centre, in the vibrant neighborhood of El Charco de San Ginés. Just steps from the front door, the charming Charco de San Ginés lagoon serves as a peaceful gathering place dotted with tapas bars and fishermen's boats — a spot that guests frequently use for morning walks, journaling, or simply unwinding by the water.

Arrecife is the capital of Lanzarote and offers an authentically local experience, refreshingly free of mass tourism. The area is well-served with shops, supermarkets, restaurants, a pharmacy, a gym, and specialty coffee shops all within easy walking distance. Reviewers consistently describe the neighborhood as quiet yet lively, with a great atmosphere and restaurants overlooking the lagoon.

The coliving's central position in Arrecife makes it an ideal base for reaching any part of the island. Lanzarote is a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve known for its dramatic volcanic landscapes, year-round spring-like climate averaging 21°C, and around 300 days of sunshine annually.
