CASA SOLARIS


Casa Solaris: Four 2 person lofts, Two 2 bedroom suites

Casa Solaris is the first all solar Caribbean guesthouse that is entirely removed from the commercial electrical grid. You will enjoy all the amenities and conveniences (even a well appointed kitchen), knowing that Casa Solaris demands no burning of coal or oil, or atomic energy that in one way or another pollute our environment and our planet. In this respect your stay in Casa Solaris is perfectly "green."
