In recent years, El Salvador has begun to change the conversation surrounding its country brand. What was previously perceived solely through the lens of security is starting to transform today into a destination that combines beach, nature, surfing, gastronomy, and all-inclusive experiences, driving sustained growth in international tourism. According to official figures shared by the Salvadoran Ministry of Tourism, the country closed 2025 with more than USD $3.6 billion in tourism revenue, representing a 7% growth compared to the previous year.

Part of this new momentum in tourism can be explained by the perception of improved safety and the country's commitment to strengthening its tourism infrastructure, especially along the Pacific coast with the Surf Route. In fact, various international media outlets have highlighted how El Salvador has begun to reposition itself as an emerging destination in Latin America, driven by tourism development projects and a higher arrival of international travelers.

Safety and infrastructure are not the only areas of progress. Comfort and the relaxation experience in the country are also becoming a distinctive hallmark, with All-Inclusive hotels that prioritize rest while simultaneously offering a variety of activities to explore a country spanning 21,041 square kilometers.

In this context, the Royal Decameron Salinitas hotel has become one of the country's most iconic resort complexes and one of the top choices for those seeking to discover El Salvador under an all-inclusive model facing the Pacific Ocean.

Located in Acajutla, Sonsonate, less than an hour from San Salvador and approximately two hours from Monseñor Óscar Arnulfo Romero International Airport, the resort blends elements of Salvadoran culture with an architecture inspired by Mayan references, integrated with nature and spread across more than 270,000 square meters and a kilometer of private beach.

With 552 rooms distributed between towers and modules with ocean views, the complex has maintained an offering that caters to families, couples, and groups of travelers. Its strategic location also facilitates access to other tourist areas in western El Salvador, including beach routes and renowned surfing destinations.

The hotel experience is designed for travelers seeking rest, entertainment, and proximity to some of the country's main tourist attractions. Among its standouts are its saltwater pool naturally fed by ocean waves, four additional swimming pools, specialty restaurants, bars, an amphitheater, nightly programming, sports activities, and event and conference rooms.

In addition to its amenities, Decameron Salinitas serves as a starting point to explore different experiences within El Salvador. From historical tours through the capital's downtown area to nature activities such as a walk through coffee plantations or a Mayan archaeological route, as well as trips to Antigua Guatemala, the hotel allows visitors to connect with diverse experiences.

"El Salvador is experiencing an important moment for tourism in the region, and we see an increasing number of travelers interested in discovering different destinations within Central America. At Decameron Salinitas, we aim for guests not only to enjoy an all-inclusive experience, but also to connect with Salvadoran culture, nature, and hospitality," stated Laura Varón, Head of Marketing Colombia at Decameron.

The country's tourism growth has also been accompanied by greater international visibility. Over recent years, El Salvador has strengthened its positioning as a destination for surf, nature, and coastal experiences, attracting travelers mainly from the United States, Canada, and Central American countries. In January 2026 alone, the country received more than 400,000 international visitors, according to official figures.

In parallel, the all-inclusive model continues to gain relevance among Latin American travelers, especially those seeking simpler, more relaxing trips with integrated experiences in one place. In this landscape, hotels like Decameron Salinitas respond to a growing trend: combining relaxation with experiential tourism.

Through Decameron Explorer, Colombian travelers will be able to access packages designed to discover the best of El Salvador, including cultural experiences and tours through the historic center of San Salvador, renowned for its architectural richness, history, and gastronomic offerings.

The experience is complemented by direct flights operated by Avianca, facilitating a closer connection between Colombia and this destination that continues to gain relevance in the region.
