Who Stays At Co404?

We like to call our guests "Professional Backpackers". They're people just like you: solo, long-term travellers, who want to focus on work during weekdays. To explore on evenings and weekends. To hit the gym with you on Tuesday and go to salsa with you on Friday.

Our Community

We could tell you that we're a family here, but that would be cheap. Instead, we'll drop a few stats here to paint the picture.

Speaking of pictures, this picture here is of an actual wedding we hosted at Co404 Oaxaca in 2026 for Josh and Imane, who met during their stay here in 2022.

Kept coming back to oaxaca's co404 for a total of 5 months. Made some great friendships at co404 and we've gone on to see each other in other countries and even gone traveling together.

As a digital nomad who spent an incredible 10 months and 10 days at Co404, I feel obliged to share my experience. The mix of diverse cultures, backgrounds, and stories around every corner made every day an adventure.

As a solo traveller and remote worker, Co404 San Cris has offered such a beautiful change of pace. You get access to all the amenities a remote worker is looking for, but also warmth and a feeling of community.

How We Create Community

We want it to be ridiculously easy for you to make friends while you're here. This goal guides every decision we make, from who we hire, to the activities we plan, to our interior design.

Our volunteers

Our Volunteers

Each Co404 location has a permanent manager and daily cleaning staff. Beyond that, Co404 is run entirely by social volunteers — people living the same lifestyle as you. Their only job is to be present. To start conversations, plan activities and answer your questions. Our minimum stay is four nights, so there are no daily check-ins distracting them.

Co404 design

Our Design

Our spaces are designed to feel like home, not a luxury hotel. The over-sized dining table can seat everyone at once — and every Wednesday it does, for family dinner. We have a fully stocked kitchen, so you'll find other guests in here throughout the day, instead of dining out. If you need to recharge your social battery, your room is ultra comfy and our call booths are quiet.

Weekly activities

Our Weekly Activities

Decision fatigue can be one of the hardest parts of solo travel. We've done all the research — all you have to do is join us after work. It could be as low effort as a visit to our favourite bakery, or a road trip to a waterfall.
