At Hostel El Gran Azul Olon you will find a terrace. Other facilities offered at the property include luggage storage. The property is surrounded by a wide variety of restaurants and BBQ places.

The vibe was great and the owners were very kind, sweet, and accommodating. I arrived earlier than expected to check in and they were very courteous with me; had my room ready very quickly. It felt like I was staying at an old friend's place, super chill! A great spot to stay while visiting Olon; I wish I could have stayed longer and if I return to Olon I will definitely be staying there again! It is a short walk from the beach, close to some delicious food, and safe to walk around. Loved Olon and its people, and loved Hostel Gran Azul!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    I liked how close it was to the beach, how relaxing it was and how comfortable the beds were, it felt like a cuddle puddle 💕 The owner was nice and kind, we even forgot something and he agreed to hold it for us until next time we go to olón so we can come pick it up, and the cleaning staff was also really nice. It was also in a very safe area of olón, and very close to restaurants and clubs.

    Ellen and her family are the kindest hosts you could ask for! They were very communicative and helped us get to the accommodation, as well as helping us once we were there. Accommodation was clean and it feels like a very safe place. For anyone traveling from oversees - Ellen asks for a 50% deposit which you need to transfer via a payment service. This is normal for Ecuador and you can trust her :-). Olon and the beach is amazing, great surfing any many cute cafes. Would recommend!
