“The apartment overlooked a nice pool, bar and restaurant area. It was a very beautiful setting. The pool was fantastic and the inclusion of pool towels was appreciated. The apartment itself was spacious and clean, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen facilities were good. Plenty of parking available. The downsides were the expensive prices of the on site restaurant, the complex being located up a steep hill which made walking anywhere difficult and the site manager being offsite which……

“Where do I start. No hot water or even no water! Cockroaches in shower! Holes in sheets. No shelving for storage. WiFi non existent. Extremely noisy, however it is near a main road with lots of drunken & drug infused people! We were informed breakfast started at 10.00 am, however at 10.15 nothing was open! We were booked in for 3 nights but informed staff we were leaving the next morning. Staff rang manager who promised a 2 night refund once her marketing staff opened the email from Expedia.……

"I had a very pleasant stay at this hotel 👍
First of all, the lady at the front desk during check-in was very friendly and polite. Although her English was not perfectly fluent, she communicated clearly and made sure I understood everything. She also had a lovely smile, which made the experience even better.
The hotel’s swimming pool is quite large, though the water could be a bit cleaner.
It takes about a 10-minute walk to reach a large shopping mall 👍, and only around 5 minutes to get to the beach 👍, which is very convenient.
Overall, the price of the hotel is reasonable and offers good value for money 👍"
"Title: Great family-friendly hotel with an amazing kids club!
Rating: 4/5
We had a wonderful stay at the Phuket Marriott Merlin Beach Hotel. The hotel is great — very, very family-friendly, and the staff are super nice. We especially loved the kids club, which provides supervised activities for children aged 4 to 12. It gave us parents a few hours of free time to enjoy the spa and relax on our own.
The food was good overall. We booked a half-board package that included one meal and four drinks per day, which was convenient. The only downside was the buffet at The Market — the food seemed quite stale, and there were flies flying around. Apart from the buffet, the other restaurant outlets served pretty good food.
Despite that, we really liked the hotel and enjoyed our stay. Would still recommend it for families!"
