My partner, myself and my cat had an amazing time staying at NomadUnion this September, staying for 5 weeks total. The location is great: easy bus/train access to Antibes, Cannes, Nice, and more on the French Riviera, plus there are bikes and ebikes for getting around. The village of Biot is walking distance and worth a visit in itself. The only dangerous part is the little boulangerie - it's so close and everything tastes so good!
The house itself is perfect: six rooms, open-plan coworking, living, and kitchen, lots of outdoor space, a pool. We really appreciated appliances like the air fryer, blender, sound bar, massage chair etc - everything you can think of, they have it!
As hosts, Manu and Giedre are super-organized and communicative, and they keep the place running like clockwork. Any issue, however small, is resolved quickly and they keep the place spotless. They've stayed in every room, so they know the place inside out. Any question you have or recommendation you're looking for - they know everything! Even when they went away, they were still responsive to messages and the volunteers that ran things at the house in their absence were amazing.
We also loved the atmosphere. Manu and Giedre do a great job of organizing activities, whether it's adventures on the weekend or just an impromptu game night - it really makes a difference and creates such a lovely, friendly environment. It's a quieter coliving than we've stayed in before, but sometimes that's exactly what you need - I was so relaxed and productive the whole time I was there, and both my partner and I agreed that we wish we'd been able to stay longer - at least 2 months. We won't hesitate to return!
We stayed for 3 months here and had a lovely time. The villa is huge with a pool, new hot tub, massage chair and heaps more.
They have bikes so you can easily get to the train station to explore and weekends we went on adventures like canyoning, hiking, via Ferrata and much more.
Manu and Giedre have so much passion for coliving and have gone above and beyond to create a friendly and welcoming space.
Would highly recommended
I stayed at NomadUnion for ~ 5 weeks in september / october.
The house was mega pacious and well-equipped with a full kitchen, laundry, coworking spaces, and a pool. Productive environment during the day, and plenty space to relax in the evenings - can't fault it!!
The St Tropez room is affordable, spacious, and equipped for work. North facing so was nice and cool during the day. Shared bathroom was fine - even when sharing with 4 others (the most you'd ever share with) Weekly cleaning / towels provided
The house / community homely atmosphere with regular social activities - outdoorsy activities in the alps, and chill days in the local towns. Even when the house was quiet, there was always someone to chat with. House still felt aptly spacious even when full .
The location is (slightly) isolated - with no real amenities in walking distance - gyms and larger shops a 30 minute walk / 10 minute cycle away (they provide bikes). I had my own road bike to get around / explore but I think just relying on public transport to do exploring would've been inconvenient - Manu and Giedre have done pretty much everything to mitigate this :)
Would definitely recommend NomadUnion - my first coliving experience and it's inspired me to do many more :)
I had a great time at NomadUnion. The villa is huge and has plenty of room and is a really comfortable place to work - comfy chairs, screens, coffee machine, fast wifi etc. There are (e)bikes to help with getting around and exploring Biot and Antibes or going to the beach.
There's a nice pool outside which was still warm enough to swim in October as well as a jacuzzi and sauna to help relax. At weekends there were regular trips organised to the alps for hiking, canyoning, via ferrata or visits other towns along the French Riviera.
All the people I met were lovely and there were always people up for playing board games, going out for dinner or a glass of wine. Thanks to Manuel and Giedre for their hard work and setting up such a great community and fun place to stay!
I stayed here for 3 months and loved it!! Hosts both Manu and Giedre are amazing people and always happy to help out whether it be around the house or the tour guide for around the local cities.
Events with other co-livers are hosted regularly from chill movie or game nights in the house, to food and drinks down local towns or hikes across the country - they do it all
there is even google map saved folders for hikes, restaurants, cafes etc to help navigate your way around alone too
And everyone I met while i was there was super nice and chill too
The house its self is sooo spacious- the pics dont do it justice
Overall recommend to anyone looking for a productive, yet social environment
NomadUnion is a relative small coliving but Manuel and Giedre plan activities to engage the community feeling. They are very helpful and willing that we feel like home.
The house has big community areas: kitchen, living room and coworking space. It's great to have a small desk in the room to have calls, so the coworking is quiet.
Great swimming pool and always clean thanks to the robot :-)
The coliving it's surrounded by other houses outside Biot. Biot it's at 20 min walk where you can enjoy the nice village and have lunch or dinner there because it's plenty of restaurant.
Antibes is at 20 - 25 min by bus.
Although I had a car, a lot of times I went walking to the beach / train station (20 min) and go back with bus.
Been in this location has a very positive thing: it's very quiet.
I had such a great time in the south of france with Giedre and Manuel in their lovely coliving! You can really tell that they give their best and all their heart for this place. ❤️
Villa: The place is well equipped, super tidy and clean. I loved my room, the big open kitchen (with coffee and tea provided), the huge pool and the terrace where I could work from every day with a beautiful garden in front of me.
Location/Transport: The villa is located between Antibes and the little village Biot. Regularly there comes a bus to get you to the nearest cities or the train station in just a few minutes. However I chose the bike most of the time to get to Antibes, it's a 20 minute ride alongside the sea which is just beautiful! Manuel and Giedre have bikes that you're free to use.
People: Manuel and Giedre, the hosts, live at the place themselves and you can tell that they love what they do. They have always an open ear and plan trips and activities for everyone who wants to join - longer planned ones and also spontaneously. I loved the community at nomad union, especially having a glass of rosé with everyone at the terrace in the evening.
Thanks again Manuel and Giedre for everything! I'll be back for sure! ❤️
