Flow is the best. Diego has created something really cool and supported by Clodagh, a really cool experience. Everything was great and I felt like I had a home for the 6 weeks I was there.

Casa Flow is the perfect place if you want to visit Puerto Escondido while working remote. There is reliable wifi and a beautiful terrace to work while looking over the ocean. The beach is only 2 min walking distance and the neighborhood is super quiet. It's a great place to meet like-minded people and make new friends. The host and the guests were lovely humans which make you feel at home from the first moment. I wish I could have stayed longer Highly recommended!

Casa Flow made my time in Puerto really amazing! It is the coolest coliving I ever stayed in with the best community – thanks to Blanka (community manager) managing it soo well! From wine and paint nights to volleyball at sunset, there is always something going on where you could decide to join. The rooftop space is insanely cool for working, especially in the morning with the sunrise the atmosphere is pure magic. But also during the day you have beach view and later on you can watch the sunset from up there. Wifi is great, probably the best in Puerto – one day there was a bit of instability but Blanka and Diego (owner) fixed it in a night shift and everything was ready to go in the morning. After I left, I really missed it and came back once again, extended for another week and by that ended up staying more than 5 weeks. I had the best time and would recommend Casa Flow to everyone in Puerto – you won’t get that kind of community somewhere else, it feels like your family abroad!

I had such a good time at Flow Coliving. Great vibes, good location and the house has an amazing big terrace for working, relaxing or doing sports, there are even yoga mats and some weights. The WIFI is good, the communal areas get cleaned every day (except Sunday) and the private rooms once a week. The communication with the hosts Diego and Caroline was super easy and in case something was missing/ didn’t work out, they took action immediately. Highly recommend this place and will be back! :)

Truly exceptional coliving experience. The location is fantastic. right in the central part of Puerto Escondido, making it easy to get to Centro and La Punta without much hassle. It’s also close to Mercado Zicatela, just two blocks from the beach, and within easy walking distance to and from the bars and clubs. This place attracts the perfect kind of people. I really enjoyed the company of those I stayed with and made some great friends. The internet works smoothly, and the rooftop is an excellent spot to work during the day. If you need a quieter space for calls, the rooms have desks, making it easy to get work done.

Had the best time ever in my 3 months at Flow Coliving! The house is fantastic, with nice, spacious rooms, a terrace with beautiful ocean views, and a perfect location close to the beach, restaurants, market, entertainment, and other popular areas of town. The internet setup was great, with fast speeds for my remote video work and calls. Diego was an awesome host, making sure the tenants always had what they needed, and tending to any issues that arose promptly and diligently. He made great recommendations while also encouraging us to explore and discover the town on our own, which was a nice balance. The housekeeper also made sure everything was always clean and tidy. The overall vibe was just amazing - met so many new friends and made memories to last a lifetime. Hoping to be back someday. Just go with the Flow!!!

An amazing place to stay in Puerto! Diego the host is so welcoming and friendly, and Blanka who was helping to run the place on my second visit was also amazing. The community is great and it's a very laid back place. The location is excellent and the view from the rooftop is beautiful for working and relaxing. I've been back twice now and will definitely stay again the next time I am in Puerto!

I absolutely adore everything about Flow Coliving, the rooms, the space, the vibe & the people! The location in Zica is my favourite part of Puerto, since it's the perfect amount of chill. The coworking spaces, kitchen & rooms are great, and it's a good size to be social but doesn't feel like a hostel. It feels like a true coliving!! The family feel at Flow is so lovely, perfect for remote workers. I would recommend to anyone looking for somewhere to stay for a little while near the beach & work with some groovy people
