You don’t have to sacrifice a healthy lifestyle when you go on vacation. Organic hotels have been sprouting up all over the world to provide travelers with organic meals, lodging and activities. Many of these places even grow their own produce and manage their own farms. There are over 40 countries that are currently offering lodging facilities that vary from partially to one hundred percent organic. Here are three that are worth noting:

1. Samadhi Nature Resort, Sri Lanka

Set in the jungle, this bed and breakfast is unlike any you have ever stayed in before. Meals are organic, freshly prepared and served outside in an open pavilion. Tranquil sounds of the surrounding rivers mixed with the delicious tastes of steamed manioc with grated coconut, gotukola mallun, and pumpkin set this retreat apart from others.

2. Porto Tango Hotel, Greece

If you are looking for relaxing organic accommodations that are less remote, take a look at the Porto Tango Hotel. This is the only class A resort on the exquisite island of Tinos that overlooks the bay of Aghios Giannis. otel is only 200 metres away from the beach and 5km away from the town of Tinos (courtesy transport). Inspired by the Cycladic architecture, and respecting the ecological balance of the area, all rooms at the Porto Tango overlook the Aegean Sea. Meals served at the hotel are both local and international dishes but are made with organic food so you can healthfully enjoy your stay.

3. Chez Ven, Massachusetts

The cottage which dates back to the 1700s provides 100% organic amenities such as sheets, flowers and food. This bed and breakfast is known for their homemade organic yogurt and granola. They also have a vast garden that boasts raspberry bushes, tomatoes, and potatoes. Set in a calm but populous area, the Chez Ven is set in the perfect place to hike, bike, swim and enjoy the sea shore.
