We spent a week here and could have stayed longer. If you don't want to be caught in the hustle bustle of Patong, but still like to wander down occasionally, then this is the place for you. The resort itself was beautiful. We were lucky enough to have a pool-side room. step outside your door into a beautiful lagoon pool.... More

We found the Merlin Beach almost exactly like it was on our previous stay in September 2009. The fact that we returned to the same hotel in Dec 2011 will give you a clue as to whether we liked it or not. You sometimes worry about returning to a place you enjoyed before, in case there's been change, or indeed... More

We were looking forward to coming to this resort. The stay was a bit disappointing. Firstly we booked a pool access room. They did not have this room available for the first night. They put us in a superior room and it felt dirty and it was not a nice experience. We were offered vouchers to use at the resort... More

We stayed at this hotel perhaps five years ago on our first family trip to Thailand. To be fair, the adults suspected that returning with older kids (12, 14) was not a great idea, but our children’s memory of the gorgeous Merlin pools have become the unreachable benchmark against which any other pool area is measured and found lacking so...

My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and we couldn't have picked a better hotel. The resort is fantastic, the staff are wonderful and extremely friendly. We will definately stay here again when we return to Phuket :) More

My husband and I stayed at the Merlin Beach Resort for our Honeymoon last November. We had a lovely stay and we're glad to have chosen this great resort. We stayed in a Deluxe Beach Front Room which we would highly recommend to anybody wanting a little more peace and quiet. All the staff were so friendly and did everything... More

I stayed here in September 2011 and it was a great place, rooms are well air conditioned, beds are comfortable, pools are great (although sometimes it can be hard to get a spot), loved the swim up bar and the breakfast was good. The only thing I thought was the downside was you have to pay for internet but other... More

Stayed here 16 - 21st December 2011 and loved it. Room with sea view and balcony on 3rd floor of building 3 was spacious and clean with comfortable beds. The layout of the resort is great with three pools to choose from, 3 or 4 restaurants and bars, fitness centre, swim up pool bar etc. Staff were friendly, happy and... More

This was the worst 4 star hotel ever that we have visited. We paid 250 euro's per night for a deluxe beachfront view, thus we expected an excellent room with excellent service. None of this was true and this was the worst nightmare ever. First we got a second floor room. The room seemed perfect with a perfect beach view... More
