The Equator was more than expected. The rooms were small but very stylish and nice. Not all rooms were as small as mine. The shower had a bad shower head and there was not a hair dryer. My only complaints! Excellent location and staff. The walk to Duval is not bad at all and the bike taxis make it very... more

This was our second stay at the Equator Resort - both times over Memorial Day Weekend. The rooms are spacious and clean and provide a nice, cool retreat from the heat and humidity outside! No complaints here - the a.m. breakfast consists of coffee, juices, toast, bagles, cereal, and the famous "egg bake." Yes, yes the egg dish is boring... more

We had done a previous walk thru of the property on a stay last year, and not realizing that they booked up fast, we ended up in the former apartment that the owners lived in. I would suggest NOT staying in that room. There are other rooms that are nicer! Things of concern: 1- carpet throughout the room, including going... more

This was my partner's and mine second stay at the Equator. We also stayed across the street for the first part of the vacation. Having been to Key West only once before, we wanted to check out another gay accomodation. Based on that experience, we will never go any where else other than the Equator. The Equator has nice, large... more

My first choice, the Island House where I’ve stayed several times, was booked full and they recommended I try the Equator resort. The Equator is a quiet and nice second choice and is only a few blocks walk from the bars on Duval St. I stayed in room 32, which is an ample sized room with a King bed, small... more

My partner and I stayed at the Equator Resort in February, 2008 and had a very nice stay. We stayed there about 8 years ago and thought the resort was much nicer this time. There is a new hot tub, free wi-fi and an outdoor bar area. Our room overlooked the pool area with a private balcony. It was a... more

I booked a room at the equator on the advice of a local. My arrival was very late on Friday so my key was left(as promised) in an envelope outside the door. The staff was wonderful and friendly. I stayed in room 13 which had a special rate and it was great. The housekeeper cleaned the room every day and... more

Nice resort, well cared for. Stayed in room 13 - well appointed, but on an interior hallway without any view of direct natural light/sights. Resort happy hour is nice, pool and hot tub were great. Service was wonderful, very helpful staff, lots of resources. only downside is that it's a 7 block walk to main drag of gay bars -... more

Had a great stay at the Equator resort. The room was more like a condo, with 3 separate areas including kitchen and living room. Not all are this spacious at the resort but many have vaulted ceilings and some have balconies. The hot tub is in the installation process but the pool was warm with jets and served the purpose.... more
