7 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE TRYING COLIVING IN SPAIN

The essence of rural coliving

What if home was not a place, but a rhythm? A way of living where time is measured by sunrises, not alarms. Where work and life intertwine, in harmony with nature and community. Welcome to rural coliving.

Coliving is more than just sharing a space; it’s about embracing a lifestyle rooted in connection, balance, and purpose. When you step into rural coliving in Spain, you’re not just choosing a place to live—you’re becoming part of a movement, a philosophy, a new way of working and being.

If you're considering making the shift to coliving, here are seven essential things to know before you take the leap.

1. Coliving is about more than just accommodation

Coliving in Spain is not just about renting a room with a desk and good WiFi. It’s an immersive experience designed for those looking to slow down, reconnect with themselves, and form meaningful relationships. At Rooral, we create spaces that foster inspiration, productivity, and a deep sense of belonging.

What to expect:

• Private and shared spaces designed for comfort and connection.

• A curated environment where work, rest, and community blend seamlessly.

• Access to co-creation spaces, outdoor activities, and local cultural experiences.

2. What makes rural coliving different from a shared house?

Unlike traditional rentals, coliving thrives on shared values and collective living. It’s not about simply coexisting—it’s about supporting, learning, and growing together. Most rural coliving spaces attract professionals, creatives, and entrepreneurs who prioritize connection, sustainability, and personal growth.

Key benefits:

• Networking and collaboration with like-minded people.

• Community-driven experiences that go beyond work.

• A support system that enhances well-being and creativity.

  
  

3. Adjusting to rural life: a journey of rediscovery

Living in a small Spanish village is a transformative experience. It means embracing slower rhythms, connecting with locals, and sometimes adapting to fewer urban conveniences. The reward? Peace, clarity, and a reconnection with nature and self.

What to keep in mind:

• Rural life may mean fewer restaurants or shops, but it offers authenticity and simplicity.

• Engaging with the local community enriches your experience.

• Adjusting to a different pace of life can unlock new perspectives and creativity.

4. Will I have reliable WiFi? Absolutely.

If you’re working remotely, you might worry about connectivity. But rural coliving spaces like Rooral ensure high-speed internet, offering dedicated coworking areas with 1Gb symmetrical internet so you can stay productive without interruptions.

Tips for remote workers:

• Have a backup data plan for peace of mind.

• Structure your work hours to take advantage of nature breaks.

• Use the coworking space to separate work and personal life.

5. The packing list that will make your stay effortless

Rural coliving means being mindful of what you bring. Most essentials are provided, but there are some key items that will enhance your experience.

Packing essentials:

✅ Comfortable clothing for varying temperatures

✅ Good walking shoes for exploring nature

✅ Noise-canceling headphones for focused work

✅ A refillable water bottle and eco-friendly toiletries

✅ A mindset ready for new experiences

6. Sustainability is not a trend—it’s a way of life

Rural coliving isn't just about finding a beautiful place to work—it’s about contributing positively to the local ecosystem. Many coliving spaces, including Rooral, integrate eco-friendly practices such as locally sourced food, minimal waste policies, and renewable energy initiatives.

How you can contribute:

• Respect shared spaces and minimize waste.

• Support local farmers and businesses.

• Embrace slow living—quality over quantity.

7. The experience stays with you—even after you leave

Coliving is a journey that extends far beyond your stay. The connections you build, the insights you gain, and the rhythms you embrace will shape the way you live and work in the long run.

What you’ll take away:

• A new sense of balance between work and life.

• A global network of inspiring individuals.

• A deeper connection to nature, community, and self.
