There is a stretch of road, along the Mayan Riviera in Mexico, where the government decided not to bring in electicity. It was decided to leave this stretch as a place for low impact, eco resorts to develop. Not far from the pueblo of Tulum, along the beach, runs the Boca Paila Road. ( check out the youtube of the Boca Paila Road ). There are lots of little resorts here, mostly cabanas on the beach. The resorts have their own generators and there is usually electricity for a few hours every night. Everything is very rustic, or primitive. It depends on your point of view. The beach is sensational and this area has become a "new age" destination. Every morning, yoga devotees line the beach greeting the day with their sun salutations. Old hippies, young globetrotters, and lots of Italians love the eclectic vibe.
