Balu Coliving

I’ve had a great stay at coliving. They go above and beyond to make sure you’re getting a good experience out of your stay in Medellin!

I’ve spent eight years as a digital nomad and backpacker, and in that time, this coliving has consistently ranked among the best places I’ve experienced. They offer high-quality accommodation at fair prices in a prime Laurelles location. The environment strikes a great balance: it’s clean and respectful for work during the day, yet lively enough in the evenings to connect with fellow nomads over a beer or at a dance class. The owners are exceptionally friendly and always go the extra mile to help. I highly recommend this coliving above any other coliving in Medelln.

This is an incredible place! The staff is very friendly, and every week they are always organizing events, outings, meals, and sports. It's a very nice experience!

I stayed at a coliving for 6 weeks in early 2025. The rooms are nice, the facilities and shared spaces are super clean, and the company was great! They go above and beyond trying to make their guests' experiences amazing. They organize weekly activities like movie nights, BBQs, hikes, dinners, and even take you around town to show you around. I felt so blessed having them around to give me tips for activities, food spots, and making me feel at home. I would highly recommend and will be back next time in Medellin.

is a gem in a beautiful city! I loved my time there - the space was so nice and clean, the community was fun and exciting, and the staff were active and engaged! Would completely return!

Great coliving, awesome owners take amazing care of all of the guests here. I highly recommend

Highly recommend staying here if you need a place to stay and look to meet other like-minded people. This coliving made my stay in Medellin a trip I will never forget!

I'm coming to the end of my 3-month stay here, and it has to be one of the best coliving spaces I've lived in throughout my travels. In terms of what the staff do to integrate the guests into the space and organize trips & social events, it is unlike any other stay I've experienced - they really want you to enjoy your time in the space and within Medellin. They will go out of their way to help you and make you feel comfortable. I stayed in the Studio, and any problem encountered was dealt with quickly and efficiently.

The space itself is beautiful and well designed; each room has its own individuality. The bed I had was incredibly comfortable, and the attention to detail within the spaces makes it feel warm, comfortable, and homely.

We had a really good group of guests throughout the course of my time here, and I will remain in contact with them. The social BBQs on the rooftop mixed with sunsets and the hot tub with a few beers definitely were a highlight!

Someone is always organizing something if you want to engage and make new friends, and if you want to experience new things, try new brunch/coffee/restaurant spots, go on hiking adventures, join the run club, or relax in the comfortable spaces within the house, you'd be sure not to miss out on this opportunity to stay.

I'll miss the space - but as I'm moving close by, I'll be sure to visit and stay in touch with everyone!

I thank everyone who added to my time here in some way, and the adventures we've shared!!!

I had an absolutely wonderful experience at a coliving, a time that I will never forget. They are truly special people that have cultivated a community that will make you feel welcome and a part of a family from the moment you arrive in Medellin. The location is in the heart of Laureles - near restaurants, cafes, bars, gyms, and more. On top of all of this, internet is very important for me when choosing accommodation - and I was able to work from here without any issues. When I return to Medellin, I know I will be staying here again!

This coliving is one of my favorite coliving spots in the world—and I've stayed at over 10 of them across 4 continents. The rooms look *exactly* like the pictures, which is rare in the coliving industry!

It's beautifully decorated, with plants everywhere and a peaceful vibe. The staff are fun, friendly, and down-to-earth, while also remaining on top of everything (it's clean and incredibly well organized).

There are reasonable rules in place to ensure a tranquil environment where people can work, relax, and enjoy life. They also have plenty of fun events to build community, and they attract great people.

I booked here for 6 weeks to see what it was like and ended up booking for 6+ months. If you're open, friendly, respectful, responsible, and clean, it's a great place to stay.
