Low cost of living, affordable accommodations, warm weather, good quality of life, vibrant culture, endless stunning landscapes, and good internet: you’ll find all of these and more in Bali.
It’s no surprise that digital nomads from all around the world have decided to put down roots in the Island of the Gods. Bali is home to a large and growing community of location-independent professionals, so even if you decide to move by yourself, you will likely meet many other interesting individuals.
Bali’s multi-faceted and diverse character draws in characters from all walks of life: from serial entrepreneurs, techies, creatives, and everything in between. In fact, many have given it the nickname of ‘Silicon Bali.’ Just looking at the terrific coworking options on the island will tell you why.
Bali already has all the modern creature comforts that digital nomads need for a successful yet relaxing stay. Just bring a computer and travel insurance, since not everything always goes as planned.
These are the 5 best coworking spots in Bali for digital nomads:
Dojo Bali, Canggu
Dojo is one of the most popular coworking spaces in Asia. You can tell that it has been thoughtfully designed with all the trimmings a digital nomad would need for both work and pleasure. Dojo is hip and stylish, but it’s also big on efficiency: there are meeting rooms available, as well as several dozen chairs and tables all in a rustic, tropical space.
Dojo also has a swimming pool, so if you ever feel like you need to take a break you don’t have to go too far. Grab a bite at Nalu Bowls which serves up delicious smoothie bowls, perfect to fuel you for a day of work. They also regularly organize fun events for digital nomads such as hackathons, barbecues, and seminars.
To avail of Dojo Bali’s coworking services, you’ll have to purchase one of their flexible monthly membership packages.
