I’ve spent the best summer of my life at Bendesk. I stayed for two months (July and August) when Mallorca is absolute paradise... but also high season! If it hadn’t been for the more than reasonable rates at bendesk I could never had afforded to spend two whole months on the island. The stay there was fantastic; the house has everything one needs and more. The kitchen is well equipped, the shower works beautifully, and the living room, two terraces and dining room are perfect to have a chat, socialise, or read a book peacefully. It’s literally two minutes away from the fantastic beach of Arenal, which can get a bit crowded at peak times but still has Caribbean blue waters, beautiful white sand and palm trees. What about work? If everyone is on holiday around you isn’t it a bit hard to focus? Not at all! The coworking space is truly an oasis; the internet works better even than in my permanent office, and Matias always makes sure the connection is great and everything is working fine (including the nespresso machine ;) ). The work stations are perfectly well equipped and comfortable, and one can always go upstairs to the conference room/area to have a business call as well as to the sofas to chill for a bit. Whether you’re staying at the coliving space or not, you’ve all the facilities around: supermarkets, pharmacies, and of course a huge variety of bars and restaurants. The best part was the host: Matías went out of his way to make sure the WiFi worked great and everything was okay in the office and the house, so we were always comfortable and happy to ask for anything we needed. But he also organised bbqs where we got to know each other at the coliving, and events where we would go paddle surfing with other people of the island, exploring the amazing Mallorcan waters and caves, and did lots of networking! All in all, do I recommend bendesk for a great digital nomad experience? HELL YEAH! 😃 Thanks for everything Mati!!!
