Khaolak Merlin Resort

Ian Zepec

The most amazing nature-friendly resort in Thailand. They care about nature and animals as well as their guests. The staff is extremely polite and always smiling and willing to help. There are different activities every day that you can sign up for as well as different food buffets every night if you wish to try something different. They offer a gym, a tennis court and a spa with massages and sauna. The pools are really nice and there is no huge crowds or people reserving all the sunbeds early in the morning. For us the best part was the food which was absolutely amazing and the nature inside the resort, with a huge variety of animals. Also we went in March and there were almost no mosquitoes.

For the second half of our Thailand trip, we stayed at the Khao Lak Merlin Resort. The location is truly stunning. Whether you're lounging among the palm trees on the beach or on a lounger by the pool, there's something for everyone. The cocktails and food are very good and delicious. The rooms are clean, and even here you feel like you're still in the jungle. We highly recommend a visit to the Merlin Resort.

Greenest resort I've seen in Thailand! Beyond compare with any around in Khao Lak in terms of how nice it is to walk around, to eat and drink among the luxuriant vegetation but also how great the beach area is. Rooms are nice and the setting very relaxing, clean and cleverly designed. We particularly enjoyed the beach and that you have shade around there for many parts of the day, great for kids to play!

The Merlin Resort is an absolutely beautiful hotel to visit. - The staff are so lovely and welcoming from the luggage staff who greeted us everyday with a smile and so helpful looking after our bags on our last day. The servers and bar staff are amazing as well as everyone there in general greeting us and making us welcome at all points. - The bedrooms are lovely as well as beautiful views from the balcony. The only thing that let it down was our bathroom which needed some decorating. And sadly lots of small ants in the sink and crawling through the walls in the bathroom which didn't feel nice when it went in our bags or through our toiletries. - The food was amazing, you had the option from the buffet which has lovely choices each night. As well as the garden restaurant where you could order from a menu which was 5 star and so delicious. - The hotel was like a beautiful rainforest everyday and so relaxing. - There isn't much to do around the hotel but the trips they offer to book are incredible!! Thank you for such a lovely stay!!

Fantastic hotel with great amenities. I love the conservation which takes place here and the views are stunning. The staff are always happy and helpful. The rooms are clean and the laundry service is brilliant. There is a taxi point in the hotel who were great. They took us on our trip to Phuket Old Town Market as well as waiting and bringing us back, making this a great experience. There is a small town about a 5 minute walk from the hotel with shops, places to eat and a fantastic little bar called Sea Breeze. The hotel is in a great location for trips such as to the James Bond Island. Overall a fantastic place to stay and I am glad we chose this hotel.
