The welcome and reception services went smoothly, and there were staff members who could communicate in many different languages. Our room was wonderful, we see and also swim with many sea creatures directly from our room. Also at night we can see the stars perfectly. The in-room liquor dispenser was included in the price and refilled whenever it ran low. Along the bridge with the overwater villas, there were ice machines placed at intervals, so if the ice in your drink melted, you could refresh it anytime (service was unlimited). Since we stayed at Riu Palace, we could enjoy both resorts. The food in both properties was very diverse, and I ended up gaining 3–4 kilos. At the bar, we enjoyed a wide variety of drinks and cocktails. We would like to thank especially Pooja and Desy, as well as all the bar staff whose names I can’t fully remember, for their kindness and warm service. They asked for your name and made a great effort not to forget it — being able to remember so many guests is truly impressive, most of the 5 star hotels does not pay attention to that. Hopefully, we’ll meet again next year. The hotel was spotless — rooms, restrooms, pools, and restaurants were always perfectly clean. At the Palace restaurant, there was even a staff member using a laser to keep the crows away so they wouldn’t disturb us — a hotel that truly cares about you more than you expect. The gym had an amazing view. We especially appreciated that the hotel was eco-friendly, using recycled water and producing minimal polluting waste. We also saw many animals around, and the hotel took great care to ensure they were not harmed. From the entertainment team, the red-haired staff member whose name I forgot and Sanjay were doing an amazing job; they never let you feel bored at the resort. We would also like to thank the DJ, who made almost every evening enjoyable with fantastic songs. 10/10 service, 10/10 entertainment — we truly hope to come back again.

We choose this resort due to the great house reef, which exceeded our expectations with its awesome marine life (turtles, sharks etc.).This place had everything we wanted of our holiday: air-conditioned rooms close to the beach, good breakfast, good cleaning, great swimming pool (though the reef.was more important to us), good gym and a professional diving center. This was our 2. holiday in Maldives, and this time we expecially enjoyed to be on a local island and learn to know the local people and culture. (First holiday was on a hotel resort island). Equator Village is great value for the money! Special thanks for the super-friendly staff!

Our stay was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The property is stunning, beautifully maintained, and offers a true sense of peace and exclusivity. The service was outstanding, with every member of staff going above and beyond to make us feel special. The food was exceptional and the spa treatments were among the best we’ve ever experienced. We left feeling truly cared for and can’t wait to return.

It was a beautiful blue lagoon and palms. It has a very small island. I walked around the island in 20 minutes. It was so nice. The accommodation was a private pool with villa front beach. It feels like home not like hotel. I enjoyed buffet and foods was very nice and plenty choose of the foods. I went dive and it was amazingly. I stayed there for two weeks. It was unforgettable.

The food was superb a lot of thought went into ensuring that different food was available throughout our time at the resort. I particularly liked the evening where staff from each country represented at the resort produced a meal from their country. The staff at the resort were very inclusive, it made you feel like one big family.

Staff is incredibly kind and helpful! You can expect 5 star holidays from the moment you step out of the plane at Male international airport. The resort takes care of literally everything and you can fully enjoy holidays at beautiful place. Thank you for this amazing experience!

In fact, everything was beyond expectations. The design of the resort, the cleanliness of the beach, the treatment of the staff, and I do not forget the variety of food options in each meal at the buffet.

We booked the option with breakfast and dinner which were excellent.The resort it beautiful and it exceeds the expectations , the pictures on booking do not make justice of the nature surrounding.
