LaurenYou NEED to stay here on Isla Colon. A short taxi ride into Bocas Town for nightlife but farther out of town for a restful and quiet time. Richard’s place is beautiful with garden and a relaxing pool. Right across from a…

Questions about Sol y Sombra
Does Sol y Sombra allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at Sol y Sombra?
Parking is listed among the property's facilities. Whether it's free and whether a space can be reserved varies, so we check it against your dates rather than promise it here.
Does Sol y Sombra have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does Sol y Sombra have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
How do I book Sol y Sombra?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
