It’s easier to take an Eco-Friendly honeymoon then you think. Especially if your idea of the perfect honeymoon includes lounging on the beach near crystal-clear waters. Many popular honeymoon destinations have become popular for eco builders too, looking to capitalize on the eco boom and create a haven for environmentally concerned travelers. Here is a list of some of the best, most impressive, and most unique options out there:

1. Six Senses- This resort conglomerate boasts 35 locations- each more lavish than the next. If you can hold off, wait until their Laamu, Maldives location opens (slated for mid-2009) and book a private water villa suite complete with (shielded) outdoor bathtub and shower, over-water lounging, dining deck, and a lagoon water slide. Six Senses also includes carbon offset dollars into your room rate, so you can feel even better about your luxurious vacation.
2. The Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn and Spa- If you’re looking to stay a little closer to home (and with rising airline prices, we don’t blame you) look no further than the northern California wine country. You’ll feel like you’ve traveled farther away than the west coast with this luxurious eco spa that boasts natural hot springs and a hiking and wildlife trail the Fairmont works hard to preserve. Fairmont resorts have a “Green Partnership Program” that extends from water preservation to waste management and endangered species conservation.While you’re feeling good about the environment, enjoy a round of golf at the resort and a podcast driving tour of wine country.
3. Yacutinga Lodge- Travel outside of the box and head to this incredible nature resort nestled in the forests of Iguazú National Park, just outside of Puerto Iguazú. You’ll take a recovered army all-terrain vehicle into the forest and land amongst lodges and cabins that blend perfectly into the surrounding nature. All of the structures were built using trees that had already fallen and recycled wine bottles for windows and walls. The restaurant in the main lodge has delectable food- all sourced from local Iquazú farmers. The menus reflect the local cuisine, and look for fresh from the oven empanadas to greet you in the lodge after you return from a long midday hike.
