15 Best Coworking Spaces in the World in 2023

Finding a good place to work can be one of the biggest challenges for digital nomads and other remote workers. To make things a little easier, I’ve put together this selection of 15 of the best coworking spaces in the world.

Each spot is unique, and this post contains plenty of useful information to help you decide which one is likely to be good for you, including location, membership information, costs, amenities on offer, and the key pros and cons of each.

I’ve been a digital nomad for almost 2 years. During this time, I’ve worked remotely from several different countries and a number of unique coworking spaces. Some were really great. Others, not so much.

From personal experience, I’m happy to be able to share with you my pick of the best places to co-work around the world.

15 Best Coworking Spaces

There are thousands of coworking places out there. And with the rise of remote working, more are being opened all the time.

To make this guide as helpful as possible, I’ve included top coworking spaces in some of the most popular cities for digital nomads, and have tried to include a wide range of different locations around the world.

Factors that I took into consideration when deciding on which coworking spaces to pick for this list included cost, location, facilities, user reviews, my own personal experience, and the experience of other people that I know.

What is Coworking?

Coworking essentially involves sharing a workspace with people that you don’t work with. These people typically don’t work for the same organization as you, and often they might work in completely different industries.

I’ve shared coworking spaces with people doing a wide range of different jobs, including bloggers, copywriters, social media managers, graphic designers, online tutors, journalists, PR consultants, and even lawyers.

Many people who use coworking spaces are self-employed, although not all are. Today, a growing number of companies are allowing their employees to work remotely at least part-time, meaning that coworking spaces are becoming increasingly popular.

The sort of things I look for in a good coworking space include location, the facilities on offer (comfortable chairs and fast WiFi are a must!), and the types of people who work there.

1. Outpost (Canggu, Bali, Indonesia)

If you’re looking for the best coworking spaces in Bali, check out Outpost – a network of coworking and coliving spaces with branches in Bali and Sri Lanka. The first one opened in Ubud, Bali in 2016.

I spent several weeks working from their branch in Weligama, Sri Lanka earlier this year, and it was one of the best coworking spots I found in the country. However, Outpost Canggu is their most famous and popular location.

It’s located close to some of Bali’s best beaches and surfing spots and offers a relaxed and tropical setting. There’s a pool, several different areas to work from (both with and without AC), quiet areas, and a buzzing lounge space.

One of my favorite things about Outpost is that they put on regular social activities (lunches, drinks, live music evenings, etc.) for their members. These are great ways to get to know other people in the coworking space and can be perfect opportunities for networking (both personal and professional).

• More social than working from home
• Good coworking places have comfortable workspaces with ergonomic chairs
