Some of us dream of sleeping on beaches; others fantasize about being cocooned by lush jungle, with the sounds of the night forest a lullaby. If your vacation desires are colored green as well as blue, consider a getaway to a Caribbean resort where nature is the star.

Here are our favorite eco-resorts in the Caribbean, from clifftop sanctuaries in Dominica to country inns in the middle of the rainforest.

Secret Bay, Dominica

The Ylang Ylang Villas at this Dominica resort pop up like treehouses from the jungle canopy; the Zabuco Villas, on the other hand, appeal to guests who want to live in the forest but still soak in ocean views. Gourmet dining, spa treatments, and a commitment to sustainability make this Relais & Chateaux resort the top luxury eco-lodges in the Caribbean.
