For Creators, Coders, Consultants & Curious Wandering Workers
Why Cowork in Bali?
Bali isn’t just a paradise of palms and prayer flags, it’s a global capital of remote work. And in 2025, the coworking game has evolved. We’re talking hybrid hubs that double as boutique hotels, podcast studios tucked in rice fields, and smoothie bars with fiber-optic speeds.
If you’re a digital nomad deciding between Canggu’s beach energy and Ubud’s jungle calm, this guide is your practical shortcut.
CANGGU: For Hustlers, Hackers & Beach Breakers
Known for its surf breaks, beach cafés, and never-ending scooter traffic, Canggu is a favorite for digital nomads who like their workdays caffeinated and social.

Berawa, Canggu
Best for: Community, remote teams, flexible plans
24/7 access, AC rooms, phone booths
Daily events, think pitch nights, breathwork, productivity sprints
Coliving rooms available next door
Rooftop + pool access (hello, break time)
Nomad Note: The OG. Still delivers after all these years.
2. BWork Bali
Batu Bolong, Canggu
Best for: Instagrammable ambiance, serious laptop time
Modern, minimalist design
Café inside with oat lattes and vegan wraps
Private Zoom rooms + lockers
Weekend market vibe on Saturdays

UBUD: For Focus, Forests & Flow States
Ubud is Bali’s soulful core, temples, terraced rice fields, and the kind of silence that makes deep work easier. If Canggu is caffeinated chaos, Ubud is calm creativity.
1. Outpost Ubud

Coworking Tips for 2025 Bali Nomads
Buy daily or weekly passes at first before committing to monthly
Use cowork-friendly cafés like Sensorium (Canggu) or Zest (Ubud) on off days
Avoid working during Nyepi (Day of Silence in March), no internet or electricity
Pair coworking with community, join a yoga class, talk to locals, attend an open mic
Getting Around? Use Ulacab
Most coworking spaces are scooter-friendly but some can be far apart, especially if you’re based in Ubud’s outer villages or hopping between Canggu and Pererenan.
Ulacab’s private transfer options make it easy:
Schedule rides between coworks, cafés, villas
Avoid Bali’s erratic rain and scooter crashes
Carry your laptop gear safely without stress
Going from beach to brainstorm? Let Ulacab drive.
Canggu or Ubud?
| If You Want... | Go to... |
|---|---|
| Fast pace, fast Wi-Fi | Canggu |
| Wellness + deep focus | Ubud |
| Balance of both worlds | Pererenan |
| Art, calm, conversation | Penestanan |
Whether you’re in a product sprint or designing your next sabbatical, Bali’s coworking spaces are more than desks and Wi-Fi, they’re launchpads for the life you’re building.
Laptop ready? Let’s work somewhere where incense meets inbox.
