01The property
The space of an apartment,
the ease of a hotel.
Aurora is built around a courtyard: six low white buildings enclosing a garden, a long pool with a sun shelf, and a sail-shaded pavilion above it. The architecture is unshowy and specific — curved plaster walls, coral stone underfoot, teak joinery, and a fan of ceiling louvres that moves daylight across the rooms through the afternoon.
Inside, every apartment is genuinely self-contained. A kitchen you could cook a week of dinners in, a living room with somewhere to put your feet up, a terrace with room for a table. Housekeeping, concierge and the pool are all still there when you want them.
What is on the property
The louvred ceilings are the building’s signature — a fan of white blades over the stairwell that throws a moving band of light down the wall.
- 01
An apartment, not a room
Every apartment has a full kitchen, a living room and its own covered terrace. Cook when you want to, or do not — but have the option.
- 02
Built around a courtyard
The buildings enclose a garden and a pool rather than facing a car park. Everything looks inward, onto planting and water.
- 03
Steps from the beach
The town beach is a two-minute walk and Punta Popy about five. Close enough to come back for lunch, or to go down again at sunset.

of your own.

04Las Terrenas
A fishing town
that never quite left.
Samaná is the green end of the Dominican Republic — coconut groves running down to the water, reef close enough to swim out to, and a town that still cooks its own food. Humpback whales come into the bay from January to March.
