Outsite, a global network of coliving and coworking spaces founded in 2015, now operates 50 locations worldwide with over 5,000 members. The platform targets remote workers, location-independent entrepreneurs, and digital nomads seeking private bedrooms combined with dedicated coworking areas.
Membership costs $199 annually or $499 for lifetime access. Non-members can book stays, but members receive discounts on nightly rates, access to members-only locations, one free week in new destinations, 50% off flash sales, and 40% off extended stays. A $199 annual membership typically pays for itself quickly through discounted rates on longer stays.
Each Outsite location features private bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms or shared bathroom options, fully-equipped kitchens, spacious living areas, and ergonomic coworking spaces with enterprise-grade Wi-Fi. Properties include amenities like laundry facilities, gyms, outdoor patios, and roof decks depending on location.
A dedicated Community Manager at each location organizes weekly events including family-style dinners, weekend trips, yoga sessions, and tapas crawls. Guests join WhatsApp groups before arrival. The reviewer stayed at the Bordeaux location and found the community aspect particularly valuable for remote workers, noting that guests typically stay at least two weeks and share professional backgrounds mostly in their late 20s, 30s, and 40s.
Pricing is higher than budget backpacker hostels but comparable to renting an Airbnb plus purchasing a separate coworking pass. Most locations require a minimum two-night stay, though major cities like New York may mandate 30-day minimums. Guests must be at least 18 years old (21 in some locations). Pets are generally not permitted due to shared living spaces. Popular destinations book months in advance.
