Plan your stay at Cactus Coliving

Adults-only guest house in San Sebastián de la Gomera, with private and shared rooms, free WiFi, and beaches, museums and ferry connections nearby.

Room types

The six room types at Cactus Coliving include double rooms and individual beds in shared dormitories. They all measure 20 m², although the maximum occupancy varies from one to two people. One double room has a private bathroom; the other options described have a shared bathroom, with a choice of a double bed or two single beds in the double rooms, as well as separate dormitories for women and men. Your choice therefore depends mainly on the level of privacy and the room layout rather than on differences in size.

Rooms have a desk, wardrobe, fan, shower, bed linen and towels. Some rooms offer city views, and the shared-bathroom options also have a hairdryer; the private room has two single beds and its own bathroom. The shared rooms have one bed each and complete an offering for adult solo travellers.
