Olon isn’t for us
We very much wanted a property with a pool to use/sit by with supplied sun-beds. The pool is a plunge pool overlooking a car park, it’s not to relax by. I did ask the owner this and if I’d had a full reply on this and had it clarified we never would’ve stayed. The pool was dirty and the block tired. If you like a surf beach holiday with a very noisy beach not that attractive (competing music) large loud groups you’ll love it. This was our first time in Ecuador and whilst we thoroughly enjoyed scuba diving in the Galapagos I didnt really enjoy Olon. It’s a very dusty and unattractive small coastal town. We usually go to the far east/Asia and I don’t prefer this. If you like Ecuador I guess it’s ideal. The info pack from the owner needs to be updated as there was some backwards and forwards that could’ve been avoided. The cleaner was very good. The apartment was clean but tired the rooms could do with a paint and the bedrooms need side lamps, lighting is like a prison block. Just not for us.
