This place is a must stay at if you come to Olon! It is right on the beach and close to everything you could possibly need or want. The owners and staff are incredibly kind and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. We loved staying here and would 100% recommend the Sea Garden to everyone.

Okay for hippie types. Nothing special.

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

This was my second time at The Sea Garden. Such a beautiful property along the beach. You can hear the waves from the room. The staff was exceptional, as usual. I highly recommend this place!

This is a hard place to rate. We liked it, but many won't. Lobby is open air, and dogs are sleeping there peacefully. The walk to your room is not through shining marble halls, but through a rain forest. No matter how often your room is cleaned, there will always be sand. If you like all-inclusives, you will probably hate this place (and vice versa). We had the top floor, with the ocean view. Easy walk to the beach, the cabana eateries, restaurants, bars, and the rest of town. We would go back. YMMV. You know who you are.

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.

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.

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

My husband and I spent 2 weeks at the Sea Garden and we honestly wished we stayed longer. We didnā€™t want to leave!! We plan on returning next winter for a longer period of time. We canā€™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 donā€™t need a car to get around. We had a ton of fun exploring Olon. We canā€™t recommend the Sea Garden enough & we look forward to coming back next winter! Cinzia & Ian

Best place in Olon! Amazing hotel owner and staff - they not only accommodated my early check-in, but also gave me a free upgrade to the top floor sea-view room! I was wowā€™ed the moment I entered the room. Everyone at the hotel was extremely helpful - someone sent luggage straight to my room, the kitchen accommodated my non-Ecuadorian lunch and dinner hours with customized, delicious dish, and they helped arrange a taxi to Guayaquil. The room is well designed and laid out - one of the best Iā€™ve ever had in South America. The view from the balcony is marvelous, you can also directly access the beach from the property. The hotel is located on a quiet corner (yet there are many restaurants and shops just one block away, best location IMO). I read peacefully in the beautiful garden during the day, and had amazing sleeps to the sound of the waves at night. Wifi is good. This hotel can be a perfect retreat / get-away; you can also find activities easily if you want. Stay here and you wonā€™t regret!
