SITE Central America

SITE Central America proudly represents the collective voice of the incentive travel industry across the entire Central American region

As a unified chapter under the Society for Incentive Travel Excellence (SITE), we encompass a diverse network of professionals from all seven Central American nations, working together to showcase the region’s immense value as a premier destination for motivational experiences.

Strategically located between North and South America, Central America offers a compelling blend of natural beauty, rich cultural heritage, and high-quality tourism infrastructure. From lush rainforests and volcanic landscapes to ancient ruins and vibrant coastlines on both the Pacific and Caribbean, the region provides unforgettable incentive experiences that inspire performance and loyalty.

The SITE Central America Chapter serves as a platform for collaboration, education, and global visibility—connecting local industry leaders with the broader SITE community. We are committed to promoting sustainable, innovative, and impactful incentive travel practices that elevate Central America’s position on the world stage.

Message from our President

Dear SITE community,

It’s with great enthusiasm that I step into the role of President for the SITE Central America Chapter. This new term is not just a continuation of what we have built together—it’s an opportunity to rethink, reconnect, and reposition Central America as a powerful voice in the global incentive travel conversation.

Today, our industry demands more than destinations—it demands purpose, connection, and authenticity. Central America embodies these values naturally. From vibrant cultures and resilient communities to untouched natural wonders, we have the ingredients to create transformative incentive experiences that go beyond the expected.

But the true essence of SITE Central America is not only our destinations—it’s our people. It’s the energy of our members, the creativity of our partners, the ambition of our leaders, and the spirit of collaboration that makes our chapter unique.

This year, I invite you to think boldly. To challenge the ordinary. To bring the soul of our region into the global stage. Together, we will foster stronger connections, empower our professionals through education, and showcase the impact that incentive travel can have not just on businesses, but on societies.

Let’s embrace this moment as our time to lead with purpose, to innovate with heart, and to celebrate the vibrant spirit of Central America.

Thank you for being part of this new chapter. I look forward to walking this exciting path together.

Warm regards,

Kenelma Mendoza
President 2025
