About repeople El Cabo Coliving
El Cabo is a unique building designed specifically to host remote workers and team retreats, located in Agaete Village, one of the most authentic fishing villages in Gran Canaria and the starting point of some of the island's most mind-blowing hiking routes. It offers 31 rooms, each with a private bathroom and dedicated workspace, plus shared amenities including a communal kitchen, meeting space, courtyard, and an incredible rooftop for sunsets and barbecues, with a coworking space just two streets away.
Community philosophy
Repeople believes that remote work can generate a positive impact on society, and is on a mission to repeople communities that have suffered from "brain drain" for decades due to lack of job opportunities. The philosophy holds that society should be distributed more evenly, and that location, race, gender and status should not limit anyone from obtaining opportunities aligned with their talent and purpose.
At El Cabo, living and working together naturally brings people together — not just a place to stay, but a community where friendships grow through shared moments, dinners and everyday life. The community values discipline and focus, bringing together professionals who are immersed in similar remote-work dynamics rather than "vacation mode," which helps residents manage intense work routines without unnecessary distractions.
Repeople also believes that a purpose-driven, dynamic, and proactive community contributes to a great remote-work ecosystem, investing energy into developing community locally, internationally and virtually through on-site meetups, online events and an annual conference. There is also a commitment to attracting talent to the Canary Islands and creating synergies and new professional opportunities with local actors, such as launching business challenges to energize the local municipality and improve collaboration between local entrepreneurs.

Location
El Cabo Coliving is located in Agaete, described as one of the most authentic fishing villages in Gran Canaria, roughly 30 minutes from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, the island's capital. The village is characterized by white and blue houses, fishermen's boats, and restaurants serving fresh local seafood cuisine, alongside coffee plantations that grow the only coffee beans cultivated in Europe.
The surrounding area offers hiking trails departing directly from the village, including the San Pedro–Tamadaba path, as well as natural ocean pools and Playa del Puertito, a calm-water beach nearby. Guests describe the small town as quiet and pleasant, though with limited amenities—around six restaurants (mostly Spanish and Italian). The coliving itself sits directly by the sea, with a direct sea view only about 50 meters from the water.
