Home away from Home…
Nine was our first coliving experience and the only thing I can say is that this place is now one of our favorite places in the world!
We initially planed to stay 5 weeks… we ended up staying more than 14 🙂 I guess this says a lot about the place and the vibe it has; it’s simply a place that you never want to leave.

What defines it?
1. people! A mix and match of nationalities, generations that simply works. We met so many inspiring and passionate people. We’re leaving nine with many new contacts but mostly, many new very valuable friendships.

2. A perfect work space: quiet space, conference room, comfy chairs, ultra fast wifi and a breathtaking view.

3. Food! Weekly BBQ on the roof, the amazing included breakfast and the numerous spontaneous shared dinners. We hiked a lot on Tenerife, joined the yoga and workout session but somehow did not manage to loose any weight there… haha

4. Tenerife! The island is sometimes quite sadly only known for its very touristic south coast. Coming to Nine and the beautiful town of la Orotava is a total contrast! It’s a paradise for nature lovers and hike entousiasts

5. People: Yes I said this already, but really this is the main reason that makes most people extend their inital stay. A big part is also played by Anne, the owner. A passionate, friendly and always smiling owner who will make anyone feel like at home within minutes. Oh and of course, one should not forget Lara! The house dog, princess of the workspace… she likes chilling in the sun like a lizard (but also chases them) and she’s always up for a cuddle session or a good hike.

If you are reading this review and considering staying at Nine, I can only encourage you to do so… My best advice? Make sure not to book you return flight yet, because you might want to extend 😉

We’ll be back, that’s for sure!
