There are a number of beach resorts in Metalio, we plan to visit and give our opinion on some of these resorts over the next few months. Metalio is 15 miles (24Km) from Cara Sucia and 58Miles (92Km) from San Salvador. Metalio is a lovely, grey sands beach with some very nice resorts along its shore line.

Elizabeth and I took a day trip this week to Villa Esmeralda, we have been going to this resort since 2004 when we would come on vacation here and we have visited quite often since retiring here in 2011. We enjoy the atmosphere, the staff is always very accommodating, and the headwaiter Molina is always on top of everything and sees that the service is great. The food is very good and the prices are reasonable. The room rate starts at $55.00 a night; the rooms are clean and have cable TV. They have a very nice pool and a children’s pool. This is a place that is worth visiting, I think you will find it enjoyable.

We have attached some pictures of our day at Villa Esmeralda.

We would love to hear from you so please live your questions and comments. If there is anything that you would like to know or have us research on El Salvador please let us know.
