Hacker Paradise surpassed my expectations for my first workcation in every way. This program is ideal for people who are striving to pursue success in their career, but also have a passion for traveling.

Quickly after meeting the participants, I joked that I had found “my people”.
My people = ambitious, independent, outgoing, adventurous individuals who love to travel and experience new cultures

The facilitators are wonderful individuals who do a fantastic job at coordinating and executing both educational and social events. The first day I met Dale and Spencer I immediately felt included in the HP community and they have a unique ability to connect with everyone.

The second I returned home I was ready to join HP again and will be going to Italy for my second trip in a few weeks.

Warning: Hacker Paradise is highly addictive!

I've done 4 HP trips and can't wait for my fifth! They consistently put together a good group of people with a nice balance of programming. I always felt that I had plenty to do, while also having the time and freedom to work remotely and explore independently. I was a digital nomad for three years before trying my first HP trip, and it offers real value even for those who are experienced and comfortable with traveling on their own. Huge hats off to Juan the facilitator, he can handle any crisis and makes every trip a blast to be on.

It was the first time for me to travel on a digital nomad setting, and overall, it was an amazing experience! The facilitators (Juan & Sara) were absolutely great, being energetic and enthusiastic. They scheduled many fun activities and I got to learn many things about Thailand and the culture. The whole group was amazing and everyone, from the first day, made me feel at home!

For me it was an experiment to see whether a remote work travel setting would work for me, and I can tell that it was a huge success. I'm looking forward to join them on another trip!

I went on my first HP trip to Tokyo, and it far exceeded my expectations! We had a great group that balanced work with fun (a lot of it!). There was something happening every day, and people had such enthusiasm and excitement for doing things together. Also our facilitators, Juan and Sara, did a great job coordinating weekly activities (no small feat with a big group) and weekend trips. I'd highly recommend HP if you're looking to meet new people and explore a place together while working remotely.

This was my first HP trip, and it was an incredible experience. The location (Playa Grande in Guanacaste, Costa Rica) had some great chill beach vibes; accommodations were accurate to their description, and the group I traveled with was incredibly fun, incredibly diverse people. And the community facilitator (Sam) was very attentive.

My concern going into this was that the group would be made up of a bunch of people who wanted to party all day, but that was not the case. During the workday everyone was very much focused on work but on the weekends we had lots of group adventures

An intangible benefit of traveling with HP vs solo: a support network for when something unexpected happens. During the trip, someone's laptop charge broke... and within 15 minutes of posting it on Slack, they had two people offer an extra charge for the rest of the trip, a recommendation on where to buy a new one in Costa Rica, and an offer to get a ride to the store.

This was my first HP trip, but won't be my last.
