Super friendly and sincere resort manager/hotel staff/chef/bartender who always try their best to offer tailor-made and professional service to customers. The price of excursions are totally value for money, the hotel even operated sunset fishing tour at normal price for only 2 of us. We bought the all inclusive package and buffet food is great, especially love the variety and taste of the soup. Will highly recommend this resort ^____^

非常不错，离甘岛机场很近，方便机组，酒店还专门发邮件来咨询客人的相关安排，非常感谢

best value for money resort on the Maldives, spacey room with good aircon, good buffet style food, big pool, nice bar area with decent entertainment in the evenings, not noisy, friendly and helpful staff, good house reef for snorkeling, 1 snorkel trip per day and pedal bike rental included in AI rate, great snorkeling spots visited with the boat.

Its very good to stay..staff are too good and polite.

Satisfactory for the price

Da dove cominciamo...forse dai topi in cucina e nella sala da pranzo ? Oppure dagli scarrafoni grossi come una mano nelle camere ? Poi, senza offesa per nessuno, ma il rabbino che alle 05.00 del mattino fa la preghiera con lo speaker al massimo ? Ci sono 10 galline che girano per la struttura libere, probabilmente per evitare altri animali. I topini la sera corrono sul tetto tutto il giorno. Pulizia delle camere scarsa. Di 4 persone 3 sono tornate con un’intossicazione alimentare. Albergo adatto a tedeschi e inglesi con standard bassi. Pessimo

Very clean and tidy. Staff were lovely. Food was very good and good variety. The only thing that was a little misleading is the free trips. It mentioned that for all inclusive guests there is a free island hopping boat tour And snorkelling tour. For the island hopping technically this is true, it’s is free, but it only runs twice a week on the two days that has flights coming in and out of the airport. Because of this unless you are staying for more than one week you can’t go on it because it is only run on the day you arrive and the day you leave. And you cannot go on another trip in exchange. The free snorkelling tour is unguided and therefore only recommended for experienced snorkelers. And you have to hire snorkelling gear at a cost. Which overall didn’t end up making that much difference to our stay - but to advertise two free boat tours included for all inclusive gusts just feels a bit dishonest when we found we couldn’t actually go on either of them.

Before I begin...if you are the type of person that picks holes at every opportunity, then it’s not for you. The room is basic....1 small wardrobe with half a dozen plastic coat hangers and nowhere to place folded items, but you improvise. Leave them in your case. The bed is large and comfortable. The en-suite bathroom is spacious and the shower has plenty of hot water. The air conditioning is good and it is left on day and night. The food is excellent. We are both Vegetarians, but the meat dishes looked tasty and they had a variety of different choices daily. We absolutely loved the soups. The beach is small, but very safe and ideal for snorkelling. There’s no shortage of sun loungers and you can safely leave your towels, books etc unattended whilst you go for lunch. The pool is large and kept very clean. Most of the pool is kept to a depth of 1.4 metres, but at one end it is closer to 2 metres. With the all inclusive package you can more or less get a drink from 9am until midnight. The daily snorkelling trips and the once weekly island hopping trip is all part of the package. This place is popular with Eastern Europeans as they know a bargain when they see one. Many told me they have been coming every year for the past 10 years. We are going to go for two weeks every year from now on. This is not 5 star luxury. There are plenty of those to choose from in the Maldives if you don’t mind paying £500 pounds a night.

Its a nice peaceful stay for us, the all inclusive package definitely worth the shot. There's not the typical Maldives expensive resort you seen on TV, but everything is there for and adequate with friendly staff and service with smile. Gan island is a quiet easy island to spent a few days, enjoy the hospitality from little island just south of equator.

I have stayed before on two occasions, some refurbishment has been carried out since the new management took over a year ago. To the good the pool area looks great and has had new tiles and a lick of paint . The lack and condition of the steps to get out of the pool needs addressing . Also the bar service is somewhat slow but then we are on holiday. All in all a lovely place to see the real Maldives

Die Gebäude sind zwar nicht die Neuesten aber haben ihren einengen Charme. Das Personal ist super nett und man wird in allen Angelegenheiten sehr zuvorkommend, nett und freundlich unterstützt Ich würde auf jeden Fall wieder hier her kommen

Firstly, let me say that this is (or was) my favourite hotel in the Maldives and that the ordinary staff, cleaners, barmen, waiters gardener etc. are extremely hardworking and courteous. However the hotel is suffering from sever mismanagement from the top. The beautiful old pool bar has been vandalised to the point of destruction leaving it unsafe and unusable in poor weather. the wooden steps to the beach are rotted to the point of one of the steps breaking under a 70 year old female guest leaving her badly shaken and bruised but miraculously not seriously . The beautiful gardens are a shadow of their former self, looking overgrown and neglected, we even had to tie back the undergrowth to gain access to our room!! If you are a non-smoker, be aware that smoking is rife in the bars (including the swim-up pool bar

The hotel is a good transit hotel if you have an early morning flight to catch from Gan Airport after having spent your other days in other resorts. Otherwise it is a very basic 3-star hotel with only one restaurant. Breakfast, lunch and dinner buffets are at US$18.50 per person.

If you like to snorkel choose the all inclusive deal which includes one free boat trip per day. Make sure you get to Mulikeda, Banana Reef and Bushy Island as they were the highlights for us. The staff are friendly and go the extra mile, just don't expect luxury, however the room was adequate and the a/c worked a treat. The food was fine with plenty of options including a good salad bar. If you're feeling peckish in the afternoon, savoury and sweet treats with tea/coffee are available from 16:00. Equator Village is brilliant value for money and would definitely recommend a stay. I'm already planning another trip for next year, 'nough said!

Rooms were basic as shown in photos but clean and had everything that you need. Plenty of sun beds either by the pool or the beach. Breakfast was the same every day but a very varied menu for lunch and dinner. Meals were really tasty with lots of flavour. It was good to have so much choice of vegetables. Staff always pleasant and helpful. We went out on the snorkel boat to different locations most days and saw an abundance of fish including sharks, eagle rays and turtles. The snorkelling was also good off the beach. It was a great holiday.

Nice relaxing island. Our only concern was that since we went last year they had lost a few bar and restaurant staff which had not been replaced. They were much needed shall I say.

The staff were friendly and we recieved a very nice greeting from the general manager on our arrival. The location is good - the beach front rooms are quiet and there is a good coral garden just off the beach - we saw turtles, octopus and a small reef shark right there. The hotel room was comfortable - we were a bit apprehensive when booking but the rooms turned out to be fine. Well maintained, clean and spacious. Not luxurious but good. We managed to hire a scooter from outsude the hotel and used that to visit other parts of the atoll - the nature reserve in the far north is quite worth a visit for its coral too. The breakfast and other meals were fine; again not luxurious but good. There were vegetarian friendly options too. Given the location it was possible to visit local restaurants too.

Great room located beachside and the all inclusive package makes it all so easy...no more to pay. Staff were friendly and very helpful. We loved the snorkeling and island hopping trip and the location on Gan Island is great to cycle around and meet the locals.

A bit dated - but you could see some improvements were being made - like the pool was beautiful

Det er et hyggeligt middelmådigt hotel med meget hjælpsomt personale, hvor man får, hvad man betaler for. Der er en dejlig strand ved noget af hotellet, og ved resten af hotellet ( i området ved poolen og baren) er der en betonmur, der holder vandet tilbage fra at æde af øen, da der af og til kan være kraftige bølger. Flotte korraller og fisk man kan se ved snorkling. Hotellet har en stor pool, desværre var vi så uheldige, at vi først to dage før ankomsten blev gjort opmærksomme på at poolen var lukket under hele vores ophold, da de var ved at renovere den. Dog blev vi tilbudt at få pengene retur, hvilket vi afslog, og så fik vi i stedet en betalt udflugt. Værelserne er ikke noget specielt, men der er, hvad man har brug for. Dog er det lidt omsonst med tv på værelset, når der kun er en kinesisk nyhedskanal og en musikkanal. Husk myggespray, for der er MANGE af slagsen. Men alt i alt et dejligt ophold vi havde der i 11 dage.
