Pros:

Walks on the beach and falling asleep to the sound of the waves. Bars and restaurants just a two minute walk.

We loved everything about the sea garden! The staff was incredibly welcoming and accommodating, it is right on the beach, the flowers and landscaping were uniquely beautiful and very well taken care of. We were safe and comfortable while we stayed our 4 nights in Olon.

Pros:

It's right on the beach in Olon which is the principal attraction, rooms are small but adequate air conditioning works but is a bit noisy and around 6 am I was greeted with what sounded like someone practicing the bass guitar close by. Other than that I would recommend it

Okay for hippie types. Nothing special.
Pros:

Hippie type of grunge place. Cool location and natural setting. Much nicer places nearby with better facilities with breakfast for lower or equal price.

Pros:

It was a pleasant stay. The owner was very helpful and provided me with good information and suggestions. As I'm not Spanish-speaking (my bad!) it was a major convenience to have fluent English speaking owners; at hand.

Pros:

My husband and I spent 2 weeks at the Sea Garden and we honestly wished we stayed longer. We didn’t want to leave!! We plan on returning next winter for a longer period of time.

We can’t say enough about the owners, Rodolfo and Maria. They went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. Rodolfo was always at the front desk and available to answer any questions and made some really awesome recommendations of places to see and things to do. All of the staff onsite were truly just really amazing people. All willing to ensure that our stay was perfect.

The room was great. Super clean, and their cleaning crew came daily to clean the room. The pillows and mattress were super comfortable and the AC worked perfectly.

You can order breakfast and lunch onsite. The food was so delicious and affordable.
My favourite part of the day was having their Ecuadorian coffee while hanging on the hammock by my room.

The location in Olon is ideal. Ocean views from our room and only steps away from the ocean.
Tons of amazing restaurants and shops in the area that are all walking distance. You honestly don’t need a car to get around. We had a ton of fun exploring Olon.

We can’t recommend the Sea Garden enough & we look forward to coming back next winter!
