I'm surprised this resort isn't raved about more. Certainly exceeded our expectations and is beautifully appointed. Surprisingly low rates considering the work that has gone into the resort.
- Travel tip : Found lots of nice restaurants everywhere. Elephant camp across the road whch offered good rates for a trek.

Use the local mini mart for your laundry. Great service at a fraction of the hotel price.Our children were never bored. The many pools and beach walks had them tired by days end.The food is great and the service excellent.The spa facilities and gym are superb.
- Travel tip : There is a great tidal lagoon at the end of the beach. The kids loved it.

We loved the Khao Lak Merlin. We visited during the low season and they were repairing one of the pools but we had two more to choose from so it was no problem. Our rooms were great!! Nice, spacious, and great bathrooms. If you are looking for a quite place to get away from it all, please book the Merlin during the low season. It was ideal for a relaxing getaway. However, being away from it all, it was not as easy to get in to town for a variety of food options and shopping. The village area is several miles from the hotel. Still, we loved the hotel and had a wonderful stay.
Great rooms, cool bathrooms
Not in the center of town for those who want quick easy access to many restaurants and shopping.
- Travel tip : Nice breakfast buffet with made to order omelets. Great coffee shop and reading area.
