In recent years, El Salvador has begun to change the narrative surrounding its country brand. What was once perceived solely through the lens of security is now transforming into a destination that combines beaches, 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 ended 2025 with more than USD $3.6 billion in tourism revenue, a 7% growth compared to the previous year.

Part of this new tourism momentum is explained by the perception of greater security and the country's commitment to strengthening its tourism infrastructure, especially on 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 an increased arrival of international travelers.

Security and infrastructure are not the only advancements. Comfort and the relaxation experience in the country are also becoming a hallmark, with All-Inclusive hotels that prioritize rest while offering diverse activities around a country of 21,041 square kilometers.

In this context, the Royal Decameron Salinitas hotel has become one of the most representative tourist complexes in the country and one of the primary options for those seeking to experience 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 the Monseñor Óscar Arnulfo Romero International Airport, the resort blends elements of Salvadoran culture with architecture inspired by Mayan references, integrated with nature and spread over more than 270,000 square meters, including one kilometer of private beach.

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

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

In addition to its amenities, Decameron Salinitas serves as a starting point for exploring different experiences within El Salvador. From historical tours of the capital's center to more natural activities like walking through coffee plantations or following a Mayan archaeological route, and even visits to Antigua Guatemala, the hotel allows visitors to connect with various experiences.

"El Salvador is experiencing an important moment for tourism in the region, and we see more and more travelers interested in discovering different destinations within Central America. At Decameron Salinitas, we seek 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 for Decameron Colombia.

The country's tourism growth has also been accompanied by greater international visibility. In recent years, El Salvador has strengthened its positioning as a destination for surfing, 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, quieter trips with experiences integrated into a single place. In this scenario, hotels like Decameron Salinitas respond to a trend: the blend of relaxation with experiential tourism.

Through Decameron Explorer, Colombian travelers can access packages designed to discover the best of El Salvador, including cultural experiences and tours of the historic center of San Salvador, recognized for its architectural wealth, 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.
