Nest is a hostel chain for young adventurers (and those young at heart) that’s all about creating unforgettable experiences for its guests.
💼 A business with a bright future
It’s an awesome business in a super attractive and future-focused sector, designed to be as simple and profitable as possible for its owner, while providing the best stay for guests.
The result: We’re building loyalty and getting noticed.
📊 The current travel market
Tourism has become one of the biggest sources of wealth around the world, and the accommodation options are getting more complex and competitive every day.
Key industry insights:
💰 The hotel industry is set to hit €168 billion this year!
🌍 Over 700,000 hotels around the world!
🏨 Hostels: One of the types of accommodation that’s really shaken up the travel scene lately (formerly known as youth hostels or lodges).
🎯 Market opportunity
This market’s pretty fragmented, with tons of individual hostels out there, but you’ll also find a few international chains.
The Nest difference: We blend the authenticity of an independent hostel with the reliability and support of a well-established chain.
👥 Our guests
Who stays at a Nest?
The typical hostel crowd is made up of young travelers who aren’t just looking for a place to crash; they want to soak up a unique experience in a vibrant social scene.
And that’s exactly what the Nests offer.
🎉 The social experience
Hostels usually have common areas buzzing with activity, where parties and meetups happen, making it super easy for guests to socialize and connect.
Shared spaces that spark connections:
🛏️ Rooms – With bunk beds and private options
🍳 Community kitchen – Great for swapping recipes and cultures!
💼 Co-working Zones – Work while you travel
🧘 Relaxation Areas – Unwind in great company
Everything happens within a shared social life.
💰 Affordable price, premium experience
Another great thing about these spots is the price—way more budget-friendly than hotels!
The best part: The lowest prices don’t mean you can’t enjoy awesome facilities in a safe, friendly, and comfy environment.
🌍 Authentic local integration
Plus, with all this, you’ll really get to blend in with the local community in the most natural way possible.
📈 High operational profitability
At Nest, we’ve mastered space optimization, so we can offer way more beds than a hotel. This means you get to enjoy a super high operational efficiency while hanging out with fellow travelers!
The result: More guests, better vibes, bigger return on investment.
📖 Our Story
🌅 It all started in Tenerife (2017)
The first Nest Hostel opened its doors in Tenerife in 2017.
The founder, an MBA from IESE with a ton of business experience, one day had this awesome vision to mix work with what you love and what makes you happy in life.
The decision: After traveling a ton, she decided to move to the island of Tenerife and open a hostel—a project where she could mix her entrepreneurial spirit with a business that makes her happy.
💡 The vision: Reinventing hostels
His training at one of the best business schools in the world, combined with his experience as an executive and entrepreneur, pushed him to seek excellence in his new adventure.
The goal: To give a fresh twist to traditional hostels and create spots where guests can:
✨ Enjoy a comfy and pleasant night’s stay!
🎯 Live an unforgettable experience
❤️ You’ll be left wanting more!
