As a family of digital nomads who recently relocated to Da Nang, we're researching the best coworking spaces and cafes for remote work in the city. Whether you're a digital nomad, remote worker, or freelancer, this guide breaks down the top-rated workspaces based on reviews, features, and community feedback to help you decide where to set up your laptop.

Why Da Nang is Perfect for Remote Work

Da Nang has quietly become one of Southeast Asia's top digital nomad destinations. The city offers:

  • Reliable high-speed internet (fiber optic widely available)
  • Affordable cost of living (50-70% less than Western cities)
  • Beautiful beaches within 10 minutes
  • Growing expat and nomad community
  • Year-round warm weather
  • Excellent Vietnamese coffee culture
  • Safe, modern infrastructure

Most importantly for remote workers: Da Nang knows its audience. Nearly every cafe has power outlets, strong WiFi, and understands laptop workers are welcome for hours.

Best Coworking Spaces in Da Nang

1. Coworking Da Nang

Location: 28 Trần Văn Thành, Khuê Mỹ, Ngũ Hành Sơn

  • Daily: 250,000 VND
  • Weekly: 1.2M VND
  • Monthly: 3.5M VND
  • 3 Months: 9M VND

What Makes It Stand Out: Based on reviews and community feedback, this is Da Nang's most community-oriented coworking space. Run by Tiffany and Anton, reviews consistently mention it feels more like working at a friend's house than a sterile office. The garden is frequently highlighted in reviews - a major plus for taking calls or getting fresh air between work sessions.

  • Two A/C call booths (bookable)
  • 24/7 access for weekly/monthly members

They offer the most variety in workspace options - from hot desks to private offices to even coliving apartments. Reviews mention it has a more corporate feel compared to Coworking Da Nang, which could be perfect if you need that structure.

  • Meeting rooms
  • Dedicated support team
  • Tea and coffee bar

5. Seaview Coworking Da Nang

Website: seaviewcoworkingdanang.com
Best For: Ocean views while working

As the name suggests, this spot offers views of the ocean - a rare perk in coworking spaces. Great if you want to combine productivity with that beach lifestyle feeling.

Best Cafes for Remote Work

Da Nang has dozens of laptop-friendly cafes. Here are our top picks:

1. XLIII Coffee

Location: Lot 422 Ngo Thi Si, Ngu Hanh Son
Website: xliiicoffee.com
Best For: Specialty coffee lovers and serious coffee experiences

Price Range: 125,000 VND per specialty coffee (~$5 USD)

What Makes It Stand Out: XLIII (formerly 43 Factory Coffee Roaster) is consistently rated as the crown jewel of Da Nang's specialty coffee scene. Reviews emphasize this isn't just a cafe - it's a coffee experience. The space features:

  • Transparent roastery where you can watch coffee being roasted
  • Stunning koi pond entrance
  • Industrial-minimalist design with floor-to-ceiling windows
  • Multiple floors of seating
  • Educational coffee experiences (staff explain origins, tasting notes, brewing methods)
  • Rare, single-origin beans from around the world

The coffee here is expensive by Vietnamese standards (125,000 VND vs 30-40,000 VND at local spots), but reviews consistently praise the exceptional quality. Many digital nomads report spending 3-4 hours working here - the atmosphere is described as conducive to deep focus work.

2. Hideout Cafe

Location: Hidden in a quiet alley (search on Google Maps)
Best For: Peaceful, calm atmosphere away from street noise

What Makes It Stand Out: Hideout lives up to its name - it's tucked away in a quiet alley, making it one of the most peaceful cafes in Da Nang according to reviews. This is notable in Vietnam where street noise is typically constant.

Why Reviews Say It Works for Remote Work:

  • Calm, quiet atmosphere (actually quiet!)
  • Reliable WiFi

Essential Tips for Working Remotely in Da Nang

  • Backup internet when cafe WiFi drops
  • Hotspot tethering to your laptop
  • Working from anywhere (beach, shuttle bus, etc.)

Cafe Etiquette

Do:

  • Order something every 2-3 hours
  • Be respectful of space during busy times
  • Use headphones for calls/videos
  • Ask staff before taking video calls in quiet cafes

Don't:

  • Hog prime seats for 8 hours without ordering
  • Have loud calls in quiet cafes
  • Expect Western-style customer service

Power and Adaptors

Most cafes have abundant power outlets. Vietnam uses Type A, C, and D plugs (220V). Bring a universal adaptor if your devices aren't compatible.

Working Hours

Most cafes open 8 AM - 10 PM. Coworking spaces with 24/7 access require weekly/monthly memberships.

Best Times for Cafes:

  • Morning (8-11 AM): Quiet, best for focus work
  • Afternoon (2-5 PM): Can get busy
  • Evening (7-10 PM): Often quiet again

Weather Considerations

Da Nang is hot and humid year-round. Air conditioning is essential for comfortable all-day work sessions. Most cafes and all coworking spaces have A/C.

Rainy Season (September-December): Expect afternoon rain showers. Indoor spaces are better than outdoor seating during this time.

Location Strategy

An Thuong: Main expat neighborhood, lots of cafes, close to beach
My Khe Beach Area: Beach lifestyle, more touristy
Downtown/City Center: More local, affordable, less English spoken
Son Tra District: Good mix of expat and local, where most coworking spaces are located

Cost Comparison

Monthly Coworking: 3-3.5M VND ($120-140 USD)
Daily Cafe Working: 100-150K VND/day ($4-6 USD) = 2-3M VND/month
Coffee Budget: Plan for 50-100K VND ($2-4) per cafe session

Our Strategy: We use coworking spaces for important client calls and deep work, cafes for variety and exploring the city.

Digital Nomad Community

Da Nang has a growing digital nomad and expat community. Ways to connect:

  • Coworking Da Nang events: Weekly family lunches, community trips
  • Facebook Groups: "Digital Nomads Da Nang," "Expats in Da Nang"
  • ACE Coworking events: Expat meetups
  • Beach meetups: Sunday morning volleyball at My Khe
  • Networking events: Check Enosta Space for regular gatherings

Accommodation Considerations

Choose accommodation based on where you'll work:

If using coworking spaces: Live anywhere with good motorbike/Grab access
If working from cafes: Choose An Thuong or near My Khe for density of good cafes
If working from home: Prioritize apartment with strong WiFi and comfortable workspace

Most Airbnbs and serviced apartments in Da Nang have decent WiFi, but always test it on arrival.

Final Thoughts

Based on extensive research and community feedback, Da Nang appears to be one of Southeast Asia's best-kept secrets for digital nomads. The combination of:

  • Professional coworking spaces
  • Abundant laptop-friendly cafes
  • Reliable internet infrastructure
  • Affordable cost of living
  • Beach lifestyle
