La Sombra —the estate's day Enquire

Rooms

Six rooms, told apart by their shade.

Square metres tell you very little on this headland. What matters is which hours a room is out of the sun, so that is what we lead with.

Showing all six rooms

01

Arcada

The original guest rooms, built into the east arcade. Deep reveals, a stone floor that stays cold, and a shuttered door onto the courtyard. Morning light, then out of it for the rest of the day.

  • Courtyard door
  • Stone floor
  • Ceiling fan, no air conditioning
  • Bath with window

Mirador

Two rooms on the upper floor with the long view down the headland. They take the afternoon sun full on, which is either the reason to book them or the reason not to.

  • Headland view
  • Private balcony
  • Deep bath
  • Writing desk

Palmar

Set among the forty-one palms that gave the estate its name. The canopy holds the sun off from morning to evening, so the room stays several degrees cooler than anything else here.

  • Under the canopy
  • Outdoor shower
  • Hammock terrace
  • Coolest rooms on the estate

  • Sleeps three
