ISLANDDAO
Scroll
IslandDAO V4 is a month-long coliving and coworking residency at Villa Solana, a private beachside property on the Gulf of Thailand. Developers, founders, and creators from across the Solana ecosystem come together to live and work side by side for four weeks of deep focus, daily shipping, and real collaboration.
More than a conference or retreat, IslandDAO is a builder environment shaped by the people inside it. The month is centered around coworking, workshops, product demos, governance, wellness, shared meals, and time on the island. The result is an experience that feels both high-intensity and deeply human — a place to build seriously, contribute meaningfully, and form the kind of connections that last well beyond the month.

The full residency runs 2–28 June 2026. We strongly recommend attending for the entire month to get the most value — relationships, momentum, and the hackathon all compound across the four weeks. Shorter stays may be possible depending on availability.
Mornings start with optional wellness or fitness at 9am, then coworking and building from 10am. Midday brings a workshop or protocol deep-dive, followed by lunch at the villa. Afternoons are for building, demos, and special events. Yoga at 5pm, then the villa closes at 6pm.
The shared coworking villa runs structured hours (roughly 9am–6pm) to maintain energy and focus for everyone. Outside those hours, residents work from their own accommodation — many properties nearby have great wifi and pool setups for evening sprints.
Weekends are lighter by design — usually island experiences, group outings, optional social events, or personal exploration time. Think boat trips, temple visits, night markets, or just a beach day. The schedule is intentionally flexible to let you recharge.
