COLUMBUS LANDINGS San Salvador

The first thing you notice about San Salvador is how close the deep Atlantic is to shore. The island is essentially the top of an underwater mountain, with dramatic walls that plunge thousands of feet below the surface. It's why experienced divers return year after year, and why fishing here is so good. There's something quite special about heading out on the boat, spending a few hours on the water and coming home with the day's catch. It's an island where you don't plan your day around being outdoors. It's simply part of living here.
Life on the island is equally appealing for what it doesn't have. No traffic lights, no large developments and no crowds competing for the same stretch of beach. Instead, you'll find a small community where people know each other, miles of coastline to explore and the freedom to spend your days exactly as you please.
The property itself makes the most of this setting. Built by Deltec, its two circular structures sit on 1.26 acres overlooking the ocean, with 215 feet of waterfront, direct water access, and a southwest-facing deck where you'll probably spend as much time as you do indoors. It's a home designed to be enjoyed, whether you're returning from a day on the boat or staying in with family and friends.
And while San Salvador has managed to retain much of what has disappeared from busier Caribbean islands, it's still easy to reach. With flights from the United States, a weekly direct service from Paris-Orly and an airport that accommodates private aircraft, you can make the journey part of your routine rather than a major undertaking.
For someone looking for a second home where diving, boating and time outdoors are part of everyday life, San Salvador offers something genuinely difficult to replicate.
