Why La Prometida?

Adults Only

True tranquility. No kids. No noise. Just peace, privacy, and presence.

Soulful Design

Every space is curated with care — objects from our travels, handmade textures, a natural aesthetic.

Curated, not designed to impress.

Nothing here was made to be flashy. Every object has a story. Every space, a reason. Chosen with care, designed to be felt.

Our Rooms

Every space is unique — styled with love, surrounded by nature, ready to welcome you.

Villas.

Suites.

Houses.

Suites

Homes

Your stay is more than a room.

It’s breakfast by the pool, long slow mornings, a bar that opens just when the light gets golden.

It’s a massage in your space, if you need it.

It’s restaurant tips scribbled on a real map — and sunset drinks in places you wouldn’t find on TripAdvisor.

Not all stays are created equal.

At La Prometida, each space tells a story — of design, travel, and thoughtful calm. Choose the one that feels like it was made for you.

All our spaces are for adults only, and just a short walk from Playa Negra.

Villas

Private. Lush. Soulful.
Our boutique villas are each unique — some more open, some more tucked in — but all designed for rest, intimacy and care.

Surrounded by nature and styled with handpicked objects from our travels, they offer soft light, private outdoor space, and a feeling of calm you carry with you.

Suites

Elegant simplicity meets comfort.
Our suites offer the kind of quiet luxury that lingers: soft light, spacious design, and calm that stays with you.

Perfect for reconnecting, resting deeply, and waking up slow — just moments from the sea.

Homes

A home away from home — reimagined.
Designed for longer stays or those who want more space, our homes combine the boutique experience with fully equipped kitchens, outdoor lounges, and that lived-in feeling you never want to leave.

Morning Service:

Breakfast, served poolside — handmade, unhurried, and abundant.

A warm drink at your door — coffee, tea, or whatever helps you ease into the day.

High-speed WiFi (but not too fast to ruin the pause)

Daily cleaning service
