"Green" is the buzzword these days, but Sundara is one of only a few places that do it without making you feel like you're sacrificing luxuries, good food, and atmosphere. The resort's eight new Lifestyle Villas were constructed with recycled materials and outfitted with energy-efficient appliances. Serving a menu that's 90 percent organic, Sundara recycles and has composted leftovers and food scraps from day one. And when you get a spa scrub with Sandstone Body Polish, you'll be exfoliated with Cambrian sand excavated (then purified) during the resort's construction.
