Opening hours

My family and I have been coming here since 2012, every year, and we brought some friends too. We like this resort very much. The beach is beautiful, the food, amazing service. All very nice. But what you need to improve are the availability of beds in the rooms. Me my husband and my daughter 20 years, it’s uncomfortable to sleep 2 people in a double bed. And it’s to expensive to get two rooms. You should have the option of having rooms with a queen bad and double, or king and double, or king, or double and a single bad. Thank you for your attention. Anna.

Really exceptional experience at Marriott Merlin Beach. We enjoyed our stay from arrival to departure. Every single one of the employees was incredibly friendly and helpful and we felt truly welcome. For our family it was great to enjoy the different dining options including pool bar and swimming pool in general but also be close to a very natural experience in the sea where we could watch fish and other species directly in the shallow water. Please keep up the good work and we can highly recommend this place if you want to combine a very good resort experience with an amazing glimpse into sea life.

We have just spent 6 nights and loved every moment. We are a family of 4 with two adult daughters and booked two ocean view rooms. The rooms were spacious, well maintained and comfortable. It was great to have the free water each day and reusable drink bottles and a handy beach bag to use to take to the pool and beach each day. The staff were fabulous and the food options extensive and very nice and affordable. We loved the location and the fact it was away from Patong and Karon and did not feel the need to actually leave the resort at all. The beach is great and water very clear. Highly recommend this resort.

Amazing hotel for families. It is safe, clean, and the staff are super friendly. We stayed at a larger terrace room at ground floor right in front of the kids pool. My children enjoyed walking on the lawn, watching people at the patio, or dipping their toes into the pool to test the temperature. Food was affordable (compare to other hotels) and delicious, especially the oven baked pizza. The Thai restaurant offers a good selection of Asian kids meal, too. We purchased the M Passport package so kids eat for free. There are so many activities at hotel, it is hard to get bored. This is definitely one of the hotels I would come back to with my family. We all loved it here!

The room was amazing. The resort is great for families with small children. If you don’t have children with you I would stay elsewhere. Also it’s on the other side of Patong Beach which is a nightmare to get through if you have anything planned in the northern part of the island. The service was good for a large resort along with the food. The reef for snorkelling was by far the highlight of the trip. I will say the restaurants have weird hours and it’s hard to find a snack after 6 pm if you don’t want a full meal. Also you are required to make reservations at the restaurants or you are seated along the noisy walkway outside of the restaurant. It’s nice that they have plenty of chairs and umbrellas for everyone so that’s not an issue. An overall okay experience.
