Good to know
Good to Know
- Cartagena's coworking scene is smaller and more scattered than Medellín or Bogotá — expect fewer polished corporate options and more small, independently run spaces concentrated in Getsemaní, Centro, Manga, and Bocagrande.
- Several sources cite a rough city-wide average of around $5–23 for hourly/half-day/full-day drop-in access and roughly $134/month for a hot desk, but these are aggregator estimates rather than confirmed rates at a specific venue, so treat them as a ballpark rather than a quote.
- Most traditional coworking spaces in Cartagena keep limited hours (commonly ~7am/8am–6pm/8pm on weekdays, shorter Saturday hours, and closed Sundays) — Selina's hostel-based cowork space is a rare 24/7 exception if you need late-night or weekend access.
- If you need visa, residency, or local bank account help alongside a desk, Tu Work in Bocagrande is unusual in bundling those services directly with membership.
- Air conditioning is a near-universal amenity across Cartagena's coworking spaces given the tropical heat — it's worth confirming before booking anywhere that doesn't explicitly advertise it.
- Cartagena does not currently have a Soho House-style private membership club; the closest equivalent for nomads is a coliving-plus-coworking hybrid like Selina or Espacio Colectivo, which are open-access (pay-per-pass or booking) rather than exclusive membership clubs.
- Selina Cartagena in Getsemaní is the most social/lifestyle-oriented hybrid option — pools, rooftop bar, yoga, and a restaurant on-site — but it's also a busy hostel property, so it suits people who want a party/community vibe more than heads-down quiet focus.
- Espacio Colectivo's coliving-plus-coworking setup is a more work-first alternative near the historic center, with dedicated desks and private offices for those wanting less hostel-style noise.
- Exact current membership/day-pass pricing for both hybrid spaces was not publicly listed anywhere we could verify — confirm rates directly with each space before you arrive, since Colombian coworking pricing changes frequently and isn't always kept current online.

The cowork area has phone booths, a meeting room, a terrace/chill-out zone, and free coffee and tea, with daily, weekly, and monthly passes and non-stop 24/7 access. Very social, backpacker/digital-nomad energy rather than a quiet corporate feel — regular workshops and networking events hosted on-site.
Membership Clubs and Co-living Hybrids
- Context Note
- No Soho House-style, invite-only or high-end private membership club (combining work, social, and lifestyle amenities under a paid membership tier) could be identified operating in Cartagena at this time. The city's nomad-facing 'hybrid' spaces are coliving-plus-coworking operators rather than exclusive social clubs. Not a specific venue — background context on Cartagena's broader coliving market, useful for comparing the two hybrid spaces above. Geographic Pattern: Cartagena's coliving/coworking-hybrid supply clusters inside and around the walled Old City and in Bocagrande. Typical Allinclusive Coliving Room Price Per Month: Median: COP 2,460,000 (about US$600). Range Low: COP 1,435,000 (about US$350). Range High: COP 4,510,000 (about US$1,100).
