Co-Living & Retreat
Stay at Debed Life
Blending the quiet rhythm of the countryside with a spark of inspiration.
A Home Created for Travelers, by a Traveler
Debed Life was born from the journey of a digital nomad and globetrotter searching for a place that felt both grounding and inspiring. What began as a personal retreat evolved into a home base for like-minded travelers—people who seek authenticity, design, calm rhythm, and meaningful human connection.
This is not a typical guesthouse or a purely commercial stay.
It is a lived-in home with soul, thoughtfully designed and lovingly maintained by its owners, who share part of their daily life, warmth, and attention with every visitor.
What Makes Debed Life Unique
Designer Home With Style & Comfort
Thoughtfully curated interiors combining modern aesthetics with the warmth of rural Armenia. Every detail creates an atmosphere of ease and authenticity.
Shared Living With Attentive Hosts
Expect genuine care and a level of attention that comes only from people who deeply love their home and the experience they offer.
The Hub to Explore Lori & Northern Armenia
Debed Life sits at the heart of the region—UNESCO monasteries, hiking trails, rivers, and cultural gems are all at your doorstep.
Artisan food at PERLE
Where your stay continues at the table
Food is an essential part of life at Debed Life, and Perle is where this philosophy comes fully alive. Rooted in seasonality, artisan craft, and regional ingredients, our cuisine complements your stay.
