Organic HolidaysHere at Organic Holidays, you have a ton of awesome places to stay.

Green Hotels Association

Green Hotels AssociationFirst thing we have to talk about in regards to Green Hotels Association is the front of their page. Before you even start looking at the different places they recommend you should stay, they have a very well written and thought provoking piece about why hotels should be green. It is honestly some very interesting stuff and it actually had some things that we have never thought of. So be sure to give that a read, once you have found a cool place for you and your family to stay of course. In all, Green Hotels Association is a very well made site and one that we are sure you will have a lot of fun using.
