Maybe some type of a water feature? Add the splash of water to cover the sound of the air conditioner.
Have you talked to them about it? Maybe they would be open to putting a small wooden enclosure around it to redirect the sound. Otherwise, as suggested above a noisy fountain plus some well placed potted trees or shrubs can also help block the sound.
In my community there are by-laws that restrict noisy air conditioners and heat pumps maybe yours has them too. Check it out.
Talk to them. The compressor may just need servicing to be acceptably quiet.
