Equator Resort Key West offers guests a relaxing and enjoyable stay in the heart of Old Town. The resort is centrally located, making it easy to walk to popular attractions such as Duval Street, the wharf, and Mallory Square. Most reviews highlight the resort’s walkability, with visitors often walking almost everywhere or using Uber and Lyft for convenience. The resort's safety measures include coded doors, providing peace of mind during evening walks. The rooms are generally described as beautiful, comfortable, and clean, with some guests noting that the rooms are larger than others nearby. However, one room was mentioned as uncomfortable due to a hot environment caused by skylights and bathroom windows, which required towels to block out heat and keep the air conditioning running effectively. Overall, guests find the rooms suitable for their needs, whether for a simple bed and shower or more spacious accommodations. Guests appreciate the friendly staff, who provide good service, including room service and assistance with check-in. The resort’s amenities include a pool, happy hour with complimentary drinks, and on-site grab-and-go food and drinks available for charge. The atmosphere is described as very relaxing, often with a sense of privacy since the resort is closed off to the public at times. Most visitors express that the location, comfort, and safety make Equator Resort a great place to stay in Key West. However, some mention that ownership changes are planned for January 2025, after which the resort will have a different atmosphere and clientele, leading some guests to decide to look elsewhere in the future. Until then, it remains a beloved spot for a peaceful and enjoyable vacation.
