Hello, remote workers and digital nomads! We know that finding the perfect spot to work while you travel can be a challenge. Slow Wi-Fi, uncomfortable chairs, noisy patrons… we’ve all been there.
That’s why we’ve created this list of our favorite cafés for remote work right here in Puerto de la Cruz. So, if you need a break from your home office (or that tiny table in your studio), Coworking in the Sun might just have the ideal spot for you!
Our Own Café: FU Café
We may be a bit biased since FU Café is our own, but it tops our list of the best spots for remote work in Puerto de la Cruz for very good reasons. 😉
First, our café is loaded with outlets and offers fast, reliable Wi-Fi so you can work comfortably. But it’s not all about productivity. Our sunlit lounge at FU Café brings a slice of paradise to your workday, with swaying palm trees and a shaded area to reduce screen glare. For many of the remote workers who visit, it’s the perfect place to recharge creativity and tackle that to-do list in style.
Here’s what keeps our regulars coming back:
- A relaxed playlist that keeps you in the zone
- Rich, organic coffee that’s full of flavor
- Affordable snacks, like loaded toast and daily menus that taste too good to be so budget-friendly
- The chance to meet other remote workers and share tips
We also host free coworking days every Thursday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., giving you the perfect opportunity to connect with other remote workers in a relaxed setting. Set up in FU Café’s tropical biergarten, enjoy fast Wi-Fi, plenty of outlets, and of course, our great coffee. With a group lunch break to chat and network, it’s a refreshing way to make Thursday feel a little more inspired!
A little heads-up, though: unless you live nearby, you’ll get a bit of exercise coming to see us. But hey, think of it as your pre-work cardio session (about a 20-minute walk from the city center)! Trust us, the view and atmosphere are worth the climb.
So, the next time your home office feels a little too… homey, join us at FU Café.
Next on the List: El Michi Coworking & Brunch
El Michi offers a unique environment: while you can’t work in the café area, they have a dedicated coworking space where you can still enjoy a cup of coffee. It’s a good blend of productivity and café culture, all under one roof.
Here’s why we love it:
- Dedicated coworking facilities
- Flexible pricing options: €5 for 5 hours or €8 including coffee and a snack
- Monthly membership € 170
- Prime location in the heart of Puerto de la Cruz
Rooftop Bar at Hotel Valle Mar
Looking to switch up your remote work routine? Head up to the rooftop bar and lounge area at Hotel Valle Mar. It boasts stunning views of Puerto de la Cruz and Mount Teide, plus reliable Wi-Fi. With plenty of seating and a relaxed outdoor vibe, you’ll find it easy to settle in for a productive day. Note that outlets are limited, so arrive with fully charged devices. Enjoy the fresh sea breeze while you tackle tasks, or even unwind with a sunset cocktail. It’s a far cry from your typical café scene!
Bonus: The staff understand remote work life, so no side-eye for setting up camp with your laptop.
Ébano Café
If you’re a remote worker searching for a great spot in Puerto de la Cruz, add Ébano Café to your list. With its sleek, modern interior and peaceful back terrace, this café creates the perfect work atmosphere. A cozy but focused vibe makes it ideal for working a couple of hours, according to LeaveMyDesk members.
Feeling too focused? Switch things up by moving from a window seat to an outdoor table for a bit of sunshine. Their Wi-Fi won’t let you down, and there’s usually a spot close to an outlet.
Pro tip: Ébano Café’s homemade cakes are perfect for an afternoon pick-me-up. Because, who says you can’t enjoy a slice while meeting that deadline?
Boutique Relieve
Looking for a stylish workspace in Puerto? Check out Boutique Relieve and its Art Nouveau interior. Open daily from 7:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m., you’ll have plenty of time to dive into work.
With its bright, spacious interior and ample tables, you’ll find the perfect spot to settle in. The Wi-Fi is reliable, and the staff is used to laptop warriors sticking around.
Warning: The scent of their freshly baked treats might distract you from your screen. But hey, breaks are important too, right?
Last But Not Least… TOC-TOC Café
If the other remote work spots in Puerto de la Cruz don’t excite you enough, why not try TOC-TOC Café?
TOC-TOC’s all-plant-based menu impresses even non-vegans with flavorful dishes like sweet toasts, salads, and cakes. The service matches the healthy vibe. Overall, TOC-TOC’s cozy, artistic atmosphere makes it a great place to work while enjoying bites of their vegan cuisine.
You’ll often find a mix of locals and fellow digital nomads here, perfect for a quick chat to break up the workday.
Note: TOC-TOC Café serves coffee with cow’s milk, not plant-based options. Vegans, sip with caution.
No matter which spot you choose, you’ll be swapping that tiny apartment table for a slice of Puerto de la Cruz’s vibrant café culture. Your productivity (and taste buds) will thank you!
