The family behind the well-regarded fish restaurant The Black Olive took pains to make sure the inn, which opened last year, was as kind to the environment as possible. A geothermal well system provides heat, rooms feature sustainable wood furnishings and vegetable-based paints, and a "green roof" reduces rainwater runoff.
But the inn offers luxury, too — California king beds with organic mattresses, house-made toiletries of sea salt and herbs, and radiant-heated floors. Guests are treated to an organic breakfasts.
