The Best Coworking Spaces in Menorca

1. Negres 29

Negres 29 has earned an excellent reputation among remote workers. Located in the centre of Mahón, just 5 minutes from the main bus station, this space offers a cosy and professional environment. With flexible rates and a variety of services, it is the ideal place for those seeking a productive environment. It is the only space that includes ongoing mentorship services for all coworkers.

2. Isla House

Occupying the space of a former notary’s office, Isla House features modern facilities with plenty of natural light. It is the most expensive of all the spaces I have visited. The service received was excellent.

Price: from 35€ per day. (*)

3. Innovem

Located in the industrial area of Mahón, Innovem Espai is perfect for those who want to share a space with many occupants. They offer various membership plans. I did not like the lack of natural light as it is an old industrial warehouse with few windows.

Price: from 20€ per day. (*)

4. EazyWork

Although advertised as a coworking space, it is more of a business centre since its main activity is renting private offices. It is located in a large building in the industrial area of Mahón, parallel to the road that connects to the island’s airport.

Price: from 70€ per week. (*)

5. Coworking Es Mercadal

Managed directly by the town hall, this space accommodates up to 6 coworkers. Booking can be tedious as you have to deal with public administration. My advice is to reserve at least 7 to 15 days in advance.

Cototo Lab offers a coworking space with fixed workstations available to only 4 occupants, a meeting room, an equipped kitchen, and a chillout terrace with views of Ciutadella's old town.

Its goal is to foster local business development and support entrepreneurs in creating and growing their tech projects.

Why Negres 29 is the Best?

In my opinion, Negres 29 stands out not only for its strategic location in Mahón but also for the quality of its facilities and the collaborative atmosphere. The owner has created a space where productivity and well-being go hand in hand. The added value of ongoing mentorship is a significant differential factor. It’s not every day you meet someone with six Startup Weekends under their belt, an impressive contact list, and over 20 years of business experience. With so much added value, Negres 29 is undoubtedly the best coworking space in Menorca I have found.
