Your Bliss Awaits in El Salvador

Playa Las Flores is a dramatic, natural cove, hemmed in by severe topography and dense tropical flora, a playful black sand beach bordering a cauldron of whitewater and waves detonating in the background, a throwback in time to a prehistoric vision of Central America where the tropical waters of the Pacific Ocean meet the charcoal sands of ancient volcanic outflows. Cast within this primordial setting, our Conde Nast Luxury boutique oceanfront resort is an environmentally conscious hotel designed to have a minimal impact on the landscape and ecosystem. Designed by a Salvadorian architect, the resort is a juxtaposition of the jungle and the sea— a reconciliation between our primeval yearnings and modern addictions following sustainable development guidelines.

This surf & yoga paradise is the perfect setting to relax, engage, explore, surf, sunbathe and stargaze.  Now doesn’t that sound blissful?
