NextSpace Coworking Santa Cruz - Powered by Pacific Workplaces - Santa Cruz, California

The best co-working space! I’ve been to many co-working centers around the world and of them all, NextSpace Santa Cruz is the absolute best. The friendliest, best equipped, with the best staff of any co-working space I’ve worked at.

My husband and I came here to work for a month because of the great reviews, and pleased to say the super reviews are well deserved.

There is plenty of space, including quiet areas, and a friendly and studious vibe. Lots of great food (including bananas, oatmeal and pastries for breakfast), free coffee and drinks, a fridge where you can store your lunch, a separate podcast room and meeting rooms you can request the use of, extra leads and cables if you forget one or a charger one day.

But most importantly the staff is super friendly, on it. Harlen and Ashleigh are super and always willing and able to help. I agree with those reviews who said the best part is the community. A great set of people with a productive vibe, and a superb space. Couldn’t recommend more!

NextSpace Santa Cruz is hands-down the best coworking space I’ve ever experienced!

My family of 4 (plus 2 guinea pigs) pack up our RV and move to Santa Cruz for the summer to escape the brutal Texas heat, and I am so grateful to have discovered this gem of a workspace.

Harlan and Ashley are truly the best people on earth! They were welcoming, accommodating, and genuinely caring, always going above and beyond to customize the space to meet individual needs. Whether it was parking suggestions, local recommendations, secure bike parking, extra monitors, or a variety of work setups, they had it all covered. Walking in every day and connecting with Harlan on a personal level set such a positive tone for my day.

Plus! Ya'll, the community here is legit! Beyond the incredible staff, every member was warm, engaging, and supportive, which made my experience even better. From snacks and drinks to fun happy hours, this space created such a positive work environment. I can't wait to return next summer—Nextspace Santa Cruz, you’ve got a customer for life!

The most underrated part of a coworking space is the community. NextSpace in downtown Santa Cruz is an excellent spot that blends community, entrepreneurship, collaboration, and fun.

When I heard about NextSpace in 2008, I knew something really cool was about to happen and I wanted to be part of it. I’ve been a member ever since. NextSpace provides a community for working professionals, a differentiator from other coworking spaces which provide “rental spaces”. My fellow members span many industries, we’re not just tech workers. I look forward to the many events that happen here, from lunch-n-learns, to the Friday Happy Hours. Whether you work for yourself, or remotely for a company, if you want a break from the WFH life, come join us!

This is the BEST co-working space in town...hands down! If you want a boring place this is not for you. This place is like a small company / family vibe with amazing ammenities. Need a monitor they got you, want some breakfast or a snack at lunch, no problem! Need someone to run a business idea by, plenty of smart and intelligent people here! Also on top of everything they have great people who work here. Shout out to Harlen who manages the place along with Ashleigh, they both are top notch human beings who make coming here every day enjoyable.

For the time I was here, this co-working space was wonderful. So many friendly people, such a great connected community, and plenty of spots to work where I felt productive. If I'm in the area again, I would 100% come back to work here.

NextSpace Office mornings start quietly with Coffee morning breakfast treats. The admin group is super attentive when needed. The rest of the time, the spirit of productivity is the vibe.
