Welcome to ONA Solutions LLC

ONA Solutions LLC is a Black-owned, mission-driven short-term rental and property management company focused on delivering culturally immersive, design-led vacation experiences in Mexico and beyond.

 

Founded by Natasha La Fayette and Omar Askew, ONA Solutions LLC is rooted in the belief that travel should feel like home — especially for communities that have historically been underrepresented in global tourism.
 

We specialize in acquiring, renovating, and managing boutique-style properties that cater to culturally conscious travelers seeking elevated stays with intention, authenticity, and community connection. Our spaces are thoughtfully designed to blend natural aesthetics, local artisan elements, and modern

comfort — creating an experience that’s warm, rooted, and globally relevant.

Our Mission

Our Properties

A Look Inside the Vision

ONA Solutions is more than a rental brand — it’s a feeling. Every ONA property is a love letter to design, culture, and community. While our first unit is in development, here's a glimpse of the style and guest experience we’re curating.

Our visual identity reflects the essence of our guest experience: natural, grounded, elevated, and culturally rich. Every design decision — from our color palette to scent profile — is rooted in the intention to make our guests feel both inspired and at home.

Our aesthetic draws from:

  • Earthy tones found in Mexican landscapes — terracotta, clay, sand, and palm

  • Modern Afrocentric design cues that celebrate global Black culture

  • Local textures and handmade elements, honoring artisanal craftsmanship

  • Minimalist, boutique-hotel finishes that signal calm, quality, and care

We believe design should be felt before it’s noticed. It’s the flow of the space, the lighting, the music, the way natural elements are integrated with curated experiences. We aim to create a sensory narrative that’s both universal and deeply personal — one that reflects the culture of the land and the soul of the traveler.

This visual concept not only sets us apart from typical Airbnb hosts — it reinforces our long-term mission: to create a recognizable, trusted, Black-owned lifestyle brand in global travel.

Sustainability
at ONA Solutions

At ONA Solutions, sustainability isn’t just a checkbox — it’s a commitment.

 

From the properties we renovate to the partnerships we form, we’re intentional about reducing our footprint while uplifting local communities.

 

Our eco-conscious approach includes:

  • Sourcing local materials to reduce shipping and support artisans

  • Low-waste renovations with a focus on reuse, minimalism, and durability

  • Eco-friendly upgrades, such as water-efficient fixtures and LED lighting

  • Digital guest guides to reduce printed materials

  • Curated experiences that support sustainable tourism and cultural respect

As we grow, we aim to expand our sustainability efforts with solar energy integration, rainwater capture, and deeper partnerships with eco-initiatives across Mexico.

We believe beautiful spaces can also be responsible spaces.
