Equator Village Resort

Great little hotel with friendly staff. Nothing too much trouble. Food good, all areas clean and sleep quality was great. Would love to come back here.

My two sons and I stayed at Equator Village in June 2025. For the price and convenience to Gan Airport this resort is a great choice. PROS: 1) Near Gan Airport, so it is quick to/from resort. This is especially useful if you are coming from Sri Lanka as Sri Lankan Airlines has direct flights to Gan Island. 2) There is a reef just off shore, which has really nice snorkeling. Nearly as good as any you will find by boat 3) Good Value: Staff, food and room are good for the price 4) Because this isn't a "trapped" resort, for guests it is much easier to go see other parts of Addu Atoll. 5) Staff are really nice. CONS: There isn't really a "beach" but still there is sun-bathing area near the shore. The rooms aren't on the shore/beach front, but within a short distance.

Stayed after a diving safari for a view days in this hotel. Its close to the airport and the safari boat jetty. Was a nice stay and absolutely worth, we enjoyed our downtime after a week of diving.

We stayed here in February 2025. It's a nice place but be aware that it appears to be in a decaying state. The village earned many awards for excellence up until 2018, sadly nothing new since then. Rooms are clean, the grounds are somewhat kept up. The area is beautiful. Food is mediocre, not the greatest at all. It's just OK. Staff is really amazingly helpful. It is advisable to purchase the full All-Inclusive package to, if one elects to purchase the Half Board you will be treated as second class, you will pay for water at dinner, you will have to pay $18 USD if wanting lunch there on property. High Tea in the late afternoon is $5 USD, again if not all inclusive. If you use more than the water allowed in your room, you will pay for extra as well. Thie water rationing seems to be a thing in the Maldives.

Equator Manager will try to make this review as hate and inaccurate. But EQUATOR VILLAGE is not the best place to stay if you are visiting addu. This place is old and the place is falling apart. Don’t believe their marketing pictures. ( waiting for mr. Waheed to respond)
