Cohabs

Furnished shared homes for long-term remote workers

By NomadGear Editorial · Verified 06 Aug 2026

Cohabs owns and runs its own coliving buildings across cities including Brussels, Paris, Madrid, Luxembourg, New York, and Washington DC, with private rooms in shared homes and all-inclusive pricing that covers furniture, cleaning, and utilities. It fits nomads settling into one city for a few months, rather than the retreat-style, short-stay programs most other listings here cover.

What is Cohabs

Cohabs is a coliving company that owns and runs furnished shared houses in cities including New York, Brussels, Paris, Madrid, London, Luxembourg, Milan, Marseille, and Washington DC, renting private rooms to remote workers and young professionals on leases that start at three months. Unlike the retreat-style, week-long coliving programs common in nomad circles, Cohabs is built for someone settling into one city for a season, not hopping between locations every few weeks.

How it works and what nomads get

Each house pairs a private bedroom, some with en-suite bathrooms, with a shared kitchen, lounge, and common areas. Rent is all-inclusive: utilities, wifi, weekly cleaning of shared spaces, a monthly household supply drop, and community events or breakfasts are bundled in. For a three-to-eight-month stint in a new city, that replaces the usual pile of separate setup costs for utilities, internet, and furniture with one predictable monthly charge. The built-in community also answers the "who do I know here" problem a normal short-term rental leaves you to solve on your own. Cohabs reports an average member age around 27 and an average stay near eight months, so its members tend to settle in for a while.

The honest downside

Cohabs is not built for short stays. The three-month minimum lease rules it out for a two-to-four-week nomad trip, and it's priced for the cities it operates in: rooms in New York run roughly $1,300 to $1,600 a month, plus a flat deposit around $1,000 to $1,100. Some residents report a clunky member app and slow refunds after billing overcharges, plus mixed feelings about paying premium city rent to share a house with several roommates. The city list is also limited and skews European and US East Coast, so it won't help anyone chasing Southeast Asia or Latin America hubs.

Cohabs pricing reality

There is no day rate or short hold here. You sign a lease, and the value case depends on treating Cohabs as a furnished apartment alternative rather than a nomad retreat. For a three-plus-month base in a city like Paris or New York, the all-in monthly price often lands close to or below what a comparable unfurnished apartment plus utilities and setup would cost. That is the comparison to run before you book.

What works

All-inclusive pricing bundles utilities, wifi, weekly common-area cleaning, and a monthly household supply drop into one monthly rent, covering most of what you'd otherwise set up separately for a multi-month stay.
Built-in community events and shared houses solve the isolation problem a normal short-term rental leaves you with in a new city.
Runs in major hub cities (New York, Paris, Brussels, Madrid, London) with private, furnished rooms, and the shortest commitment is three months rather than a full-year lease.
Flat deposit structure (around $1,000 to $1,100) regardless of room price, often lower than a standard one-month deposit on a pricier unit.

What to watch

Three-month minimum lease makes it unusable for short nomad stints or trial visits to a city.
Limited to a specific list of mostly European and US East Coast cities, with nothing in Southeast Asia or Latin America.
Some reported issues with the member app and billing, including slow refunds on overcharges.

Questions at the counter

Is Cohabs worth it for digital nomads?

It's worth it if you're settling into one city for three months or more and want furnished, all-inclusive housing with a built-in social scene. It's a poor fit for short nomad stints, since there's no way to book less than three months. Compare the all-in monthly price against a normal unfurnished rental plus utilities and setup costs before deciding.

How much does Cohabs cost per month?

Rooms typically run around $1,300 to $1,600 a month in cities like New York, varying by city and room type (private bathroom vs. shared). That price includes utilities, wifi, weekly common-area cleaning, and community perks, plus a flat deposit around $1,000 to $1,100.

What is the minimum stay at Cohabs?

Leases start at three months, with a two-week window after signing to cancel free of charge. There is no short-term or nightly option, which sets Cohabs apart from retreat-style coliving programs aimed at shorter nomad trips.

What cities does Cohabs operate in?

Cohabs runs houses in New York (Manhattan and Brooklyn), Brussels, Paris, Madrid, London, Luxembourg, Milan, Marseille, and Washington DC, with the list still expanding. All locations are in Europe or the US East Coast, so it doesn't cover Southeast Asia or Latin America nomad hubs.
