Europe Epic Stays
by Hannah D. Cooper May 5, 2022

If the past few years taught us anything, it’s that we can work hard anywhere and hybrid working is here to stay. Airbnb – already ahead of the game by permitting remote work to the entire workforce – provides faultless lodging for remote workers and digital nomads.

A recent survey revealed that “Living Anywhere” is on the rise, particularly among Black and Hispanic communities in the United States. Seventy-two percent of Black professionals and 70 percent of Hispanic professionals in the survey have experimented by living in multiple locations since 2020. Seventy-six percent of all survey respondents intend to follow suit.

Destinations with diverse communities that offer a blend of cultural attractions and tropical scenery came out on top for those surveyed. With summer around the corner, these top-rated Airbnbs for remote workers and digital nomads are perfect for your own workation.

We hope you love the remote work Airbnbs we recommend! Just so you know, Matador may collect a small commission from the links on this page if you decide to book a stay. Listed prices are accurate as of the time of publication.
