"A few hours north of Acapulco, this 19-room, modestly sized eco-lodge has a strict commitment to the local flora and fauna, meaning there’s no AC or TVs in the 100-percent solar-powered resort. But who needs any of that when you have your own perched casita with unobstructed ocean views, free yoga, and three fresh meals a day? Playa Viva also boasts five beautifully-designed treehouses. Guests can hike up the mountains to meet a local family and release baby sea turtles with the local turtle rescue group." - Travel + Leisure Editors
