Mexico has been a favorite destination for digital nomads and remote workers. Thanks to the affordable cost of living, ideal temperatures, and gorgeous sea views, Cancun makes for the perfect workation destination. With great wifi connection and speed, you’ll be set up for success in this city! 

While Cancun is known for its tourist activities and vacation rentals, it’s still a great place for long stays of at least 30 days. You can truly create a great lifestyle and routine while living and working remotely in this fun and colorful city. 

The city is strategically located near other popular and must-visit destinations such as Playa del Carmen and Tulum. You’ll also have access to the multiple amusement parks by Xcaret.
