7 Cafes and other spots with GOOD WiFi to work remotely in Siquijor

Kape de Guyo in the afternoon

As always, I’ll be covering San Juan, the heart of Siquijor’s tourist scene.

I’ve been living and working remotely on the island for a while now, and trust me, finding good work spots wasn’t easy at first. But after some trial and error, I’ve narrowed it down to SEVEN solid options that I can personally recommend:

Eden Coworking

Eden Coworking main room

Let’s start with Eden Coworking—because, full disclaimer, it’s the one I know best. I own the place, so take that into account. But I’ll be as objective as I can.

Eden Coworking is the first and only coworking space in San Juan, Siquijor. Unlike cafés, it’s purpose-built for working, with quiet zones, stable electricity, and solid internet.

The place runs on solar power, so even when the island faces one of its notorious brownouts, Eden Coworking keeps running.

The internet is powered by Starlink, so it’s consistently fast and reliable—great for video calls, uploads, or focused deep work.

The Good

✅ No brownouts – Eden Coworking runs on solar, so the power stays on

✅ Starlink internet – super reliable and fast

✅ Quiet and focused – ideal for meetings, deep work, and calls

✅ Unlimited high quality Coffee and Tea - Included in all passes

The Bad and Ugly

❌ Small space – Only 8 seats, so it can fill up quickly

❌ Not café-style – Eden charges by the hour, day, or week, so it's not the cheapest option if you just want to sip coffee and casually browse

How to Get There

Nakabalo Guesthouse and Restaurant

Nakabalo Guesthouse in Siquijor

This is a stunning place to work and live the dream Digital Nomad life. You can work from their restaurant, take a dip in the pool, and soak in breathtaking views of the sea and mountains. It’s everything you imagined—and more.

And more importantly: Good and solid Starlink internet that work even during power cuts (bronwouts).

So even when the island is in darkness due to the constant power cuts (brownouts) Nakabalo remains a solid place for Digital Nomads to seek refuge.

The Good

✅ It's stable, with good Startlink internet even during power cuts

✅ Generator up and running baby

✅ It has an infinite swimming pool and good food

The Bad and Ugly

❌ Nakabalo is a restaurant, so expect a constant flow of customers coming and going. This could make the place a bit noisy some times.

❌ Its open air, so forget about your AC. During hot days is tough to work from there having an interview or any important call.

Opening Hours

They are a hotel so they pretty much work 24/7. But for you Digital Nomad that is not sleeping there, I would say that is a bit weird to work there after 9pm.

So I would say that probably it would be ok to stay there from 8am to 10pm.

How to Get There

Nakabalo is about 6-minute drive from Eden Coworking Space.

Tawhay Restaurant and Bar

Tawhay Resto and Bar

Tawhay is very nice restaurant with some good food options and is right in the middle of San Juan Siquijor. Their location couldn't be better.

The Good

✅ It has a good and stable Startlink internet connection

✅ They have GENERATOR, and even during power cuts their internet keeps working. YAY.

The Bad and Ugly

❌ Tawhay is a restaurant. So expect some noise and lots of people coming and going.

❌ No AC. During hot days is tough to work from there. Having an interview or any important call is difficult.

Opening Hours

7am to 10pm

Internet Speed

Mind you, when there are lots of people there, their internet will get slower.

About 10 min drive from Eden Coworking Space in Siquijor

Fig Cafe

Fig Cafe in a regular week day afternoon

A place with very comfortable chairs, no loud music, and good food—one of my favorite spots to work from!

The AC is just right, the WiFi is usually solid, and most importantly… they have a generator ⚡—so even when the power goes out, your flow doesn’t! 💻💪

But there is a problem with Fig...

🚨 The problem with Fig Cafe

…Or should I say three? 😅

1. When electricity goes down in the island, so does the local Internet Supplier. So even though Fig Cafe has electricity, during power cuts, Fig will not have internet. (In some rare cases, there is power cuts on the island and Fig still has internet working. I will not go too deep in why that is, just be aware that their internet can drop at any moment)

2. The space is tiny—like, "7 people and we’re full" tiny. Cozy, yes. Spacious, not quite.

3. It gets busy with regular café-goers enjoying coffee and meals ☕🥪—which brings us to...The noise.They whip up amazing shakes and food—blender and all. So yeah, it can get blendy. Add to that the café chit-chat, and you might need headphones to stay in the zone.

So, great spot—but maybe not if you’re a Digital Nomad in Siquijor, trying to have an important meeting.

📍 Opening Hours: 

6.30 AM – 8 PM

Internet Speed:

🚗 Getting there:

Fig Cafe is about 2-minute drive from Eden Coworking Space.

Kape de Guyod

Kape de Guyod on a Thursday afternoon

A spacious, modern, and quiet café right on Siquijor’s main road. It’s well-located, has good internet, and isn’t usually crowded. No loud music, no distractions—just a chill workspace.

🚨 One downside:

Kape de Guyod has a generator BUT it only keeps the electricity on and NOT the wifi. So during brownouts, the internet goes down. And to make things worse, phone service isn’t great in that area, meaning you can’t always rely on mobile data as a backup. (Not everything is perfect, right?)

📍 Opening Hours: 

8 AM – 9 PM

Internet Speed:

Kape de Guyod internet speed

☕ What to expect: 

Great coffee, tasty breakfast, and a Digital Nomad-friendly vibe. The staff is used to people working from here, and you’re always welcome. And... the AC is always on (Thank God)

🚗 Getting there:

Kape de Guyod is about a 5-minute drive from Eden Coworking Space.

Janin's Café

Janin's Cafe in San Juan

Another spacious, cozy place to work from, and it’s right across the street from Kape de Guyod—so if one is too crowded, just hop over to the other! Janin's Cafe!

The problem with Janins is their internet speed. Its very slow.

You can barely rely on it to navigate the internet, let alone having a zoom call there. For zoom calls I would say in most cases is a no no.

Internet Speed

Janin's Cafe Internet Speed

☕ What to expect:

 Coffee (of course) and the most delicious cakes in Siquijor. If you’ve got a sweet tooth, this place is a must.

Janin's Cafe in San Juan, from the inside

📍 Opening Hours:

 6:30 AM – 8 PM (Super early opening is a big plus!)

🚗 Getting there:

Careful, there are two Janin's Cafe in Siquijor island.

One by the port, in Siquijor Town, and another one in San Juan. The one I tested and Im recommending is the one in San Juan.

Again, about a 5-minute drive from Eden Coworking Space.

Cafe Infinite (24/7)

Cafe Infinite on a Monday 8pm

This café just opened in mid-March 2025, and here I am, testing it out one week after its grand opening. But what really makes this place stand out? It’s the first 24/7 café on the island.

Could this be the ultimate Digital Nomad spot in Siquijor? Let’s find out.

First: Impressions

✅ Spacious – Plenty of seating options, from comfy chairs to solid workspaces.

✅ Great café menu – Lots of coffee choices to fuel your work sessions.

✅ Open all the time – Seriously, finally, a 24/7 spot!

Cafe Infinite, Siquijor

🚨 Downsides:

❌ No AC – On hot days, be ready to sweat through your Zoom calls.

❌ Noise factor – The café has no walls and sits right by Siquijor’s main road, so expect occasional scooter beeps and street noise. Loud music – They play it a bit too loud, but the good news? Just ask, and they’ll turn it down instantly.

❌ When the electricity goes down, so does their internet. Even though they have generators, again they rely on the local internet provider which will go down as well due to the blackouts.

❌ Slow internet. You certainly can't have a zoom call there

📍 Opening Hours: 

24/7 (FINALLYYYY a place 24/7)

Internet Speed:

Internet Speed at Cafe Infinite

☕ What to expect: 

A modern café, open anytime you need it, with a solid workspace vibe. But expect some noise, no AC, and internet that’s not the fastest.

🚗 Getting there:

Cafe Infinite is about a 30 second drive from Eden Coworking Space.
