When you join Outsite’s global coliving network, you step into a new way of life. It’s more than booking and securing a place to stay; it’s about connecting with other remote workers and digital nomads who know and value blending work and experiencing the outdoors.
Whether you’re dreaming of a rooftop workspace in Costa Rica, where some of my friends once enjoyed the most balanced week of their year, or a cozy lakeside home in Tahoe, where the mornings are perfect for coffee and reflection, becoming an Outsite member is your gateway to this flexible and inspiring lifestyle.
In this step-by-step guide, I’ll explain how to join Outsite’s network based on my personal experience (and that of my fellow nomadic friends). Trust me, it’s easier than setting up your next Zoom meeting. Let’s do this!
I partner with select brands I trust and travel with. I may receive a commission at no charge to you should you choose to book with them, too via the links below. Read more here, and thank you for your support!
Step 1: Understand the Benefits of Membership
First, it’s essential to know what you’re signing up for. Outsite memberships come with perks that make it worth every penny:
- Access to exclusive coliving spaces across the globe. Many Outsite locations, especially the higher-end popular ones, can be booked only by members.
- Discounts on stays (including free weeks and 40% off last-minute deals).
- Entry to the members-only portal, where you can connect with other members, plan trips, and access valuable resources like location-specific guides.
- Welcome credit of $25 to use toward your first booking.
- Rewards program for discounts on future stays.
During my first year as a member, the rewards program alone saved me hundreds of dollars—not to mention the peace of mind I felt knowing I always had a comfortable and well-equipped space waiting for me.

Step 2: Choose the Right Membership Plan
Outsite offers two membership levels to suit different needs:
- Annual Membership: A flat $149 fee grants you access to all the benefits for a full year. This is a great way to try out Outsite and see if it's for you. You can renew each year.
- Lifetime Memberships: If you know Outsite is for you, you can get lifetime access to all the membership perks for one payment of $399.
When I first joined, I opted for the annual membership. It was a bit of a leap of faith, but the discounts and rewards quickly made it worthwhile, especially when I stayed at Outsite’s Mexico City location—a dream spot with a kitchen so well-equipped that it felt like home immediately.
Step 3: Sign Up for Membership
Once you’ve decided on the plan, here’s how to sign up:
- Go to Outsite.co and click “Become a Member” at the top
- Select the annual or lifetime membership option and hit “Apply Now“
- Create a login and complete the easy questionnaire. Hit “Submit”
- Check your inbox for a welcome email—this will include all the juicy details about accessing your perks, getting to the membership hub, and booking your first stay.
Pro Tip: If you’re hesitant about committing, remember that Outsite’s memberships are designed to save you money in the long run—even a single week’s stay with discounts can offset the cost of joining. My $25 welcome credit was handy when I booked my first stay in Colorado.
Step 4: Explore the Members-Only Portal
Now that you’re an official member, it’s time to explore the members-only portal. This is where the magic happens:
- Browse locations: Learn about Outsite’s stunning properties in the U.S., Europe, Asia, and Latin America.
- Connect with other members: Chat with people staying at your chosen location or find travel buddies for future trips.
- Access discounts: In addition to stay discounts, enjoy perks like deals on gym memberships, transportation, and even coworking spaces outside of Outsite.
If you’re traveling to Portugal, the members-only portal can help you discover the Sagres location—complete with surf lessons and yoga sessions—which can be a game changer for work-life balance.

Step 5: Book Your First Stay
Booking with Outsite is as simple as it gets:
- Log into your member portal.
- Browse the locations and select your dream spot.
- Look at your travel dates to see your availability, then reserve your room.
- Apply any welcome credits or rewards points for instant savings.
- Confirm your stay—and voila! You’re all set.
Pro Tip: Check out the special deals, like discounted rates for new locations or last-minute openings. I almost binge-watch the ongoing sales and new location openings in the member’s portal. Sometimes, you get a whole week free!
Step 6: Pack Smart and Settle In
Before you jet off to your Outsite destination, here are a few packing tips from someone who’s been there:
- First, essentials: Even though Outsite provides stocked kitchen supplies and laundry facilities, always pack your own toiletries and work essentials.
- Power adapters: If you travel overseas, double that you have the right adapter for your tech gear.
- Comfort items: Bring your coffee blends or a cozy blanket to give your stay a touch of home.
When you arrive, settle in, explore the space, and enjoy the balance of work and play that Outsite offers. On my first morning at the Mexico City location, I cooked up my favorite avocado toast dish in their incredible kitchen—a small ritual that made me feel instantly at home.
Step 7: Make the Most of Your Membership
Your membership isn’t just a pass to incredible stays—it’s a toolkit for thriving as a remote worker or digital nomad. Use the members-only portal to:
- Plan future trips: Include your year and book back-to-back stays at multiple Outsite locations.
- Build your network: Attend casual meetups or connect with other members who share your lifestyle.
- Leverage rewards: Rack up points with every stay and redeem them for future discounts.
You’ll begin to notice the ease of booking and the familiarity of each Outsite location make our travel journey seamless.
