Khaolak Merlin Resort

Our stay at Merlin Khao Lak was pretty great. We had a week there, and sincerely enjoyed the feeling of staying in a contained and nicely taken care of rain forest by the beach. The location was nearly perfect, but the beach itself wasn't very swimmable (beginning of rain season, to be fair). Fortunately, there were other beaches on the same coast that were nicer during the same time of year, so we did get time in the sea water. Even without sea swimming, the ambience from the waves and the sunsets made the beach plenty nice for us at Merlin. There is also a variety of nicepy kept pools to enjoy, though I typically don't enjoy pools personally. Service/food were both nice as well. The staff was pleasant enough, but it did feel weird that an ecologically minded resort had the least meat/dairy alternatives of any of the several resorts/hotels we stayed at. I found ordering curries with no seafood or meat simple though, and they were mostly still good. The massaman curry was a miss, but everything else I tried was quite good for resort food! We really loved the touch of the room's default tv channel being an info channel about the resort's wildlife and maintenance. That, plus the several info booklets allowed us to have a more guided and knowledgeable experience while sightseeing on the exceptional grounds. It was really fun running into others who were also just having a look around and waiting to see a different animal pop up. We enjoyed our stay. Next time we'd likely come back, while also spending some time up the coast a bit.

超棒的酒店，辦理入住時一條冰毛巾太爽了～ 酒店像一個熱帶雨林，不需要接駁車，有連廊走來走去很方便。 房間很大，空調很足，熱水也超大！！ 早餐非常棒！吃過很多酒店的早餐，這家能排上前三！ 酒店有泳池有草地有沙灘，沙灘旁邊可以走去eden，eden旁邊的nana餐廳推薦，很便宜好吃。 酒店本身自帶的餐廳也不貴，可以嘗試下～ 另外酒店門口左轉有好多餐廳massage換錢的還有711，非常方便！ 服務員都不錯，態度超好，微笑禮貌，還幫忙升級了房間，太幸運了！ 一定要説缺點的話，房間有些許黴味，還有泳池感覺清理不及時顯得有點臟，尤其是小泳池，希望能改進！

飯店超像生態園區，房間卻是非常乾淨，也沒嚴重的蚊蟲問題，只有幾個稍有出沒。有鄰接超棒的沙灘。可惜游泳池比較有限，泳池bar也比較沒那麼衛生。餐廳料理極佳且價格合理，房間也非常漂亮且乾淨，唯獨電燈中控不完整，僅能控制80%的燈具

定的最貴的私人泳池別墅 圖上是海景 去到是對着一整面牆！泳池很臟！沒有牙刷牙膏 沒有拖鞋 沒有護髮素 公區竟然沒毛巾供應。服務很差 打掃房間都是隨便打掃一下就算 東西不補充！住了三天 衹有第一天有水果！我放在床上的睡衣隨手亂丟！根本不疊衣服！在餐廳 我們還在看菜牌點菜就已經要收走菜牌！！真離譜 ！ 小童也不友好 沒有任何小童相關用品 ！ 搬行李的boy是整個酒店最友好的人！

那麼老舊的怎麼敢收那麼貴一晚。前台走去房間需要兜兜轉轉爬上四樓（沒有電梯）導向標誌不行。以至於每次從外面回來都要找很久房間。泳池都有些臟。

房間很大很寬敞，衞生間也超大，早餐好吃，體驗感很好～住了這裏和隔壁的eden，感覺這家性價比更高～一些

人少景好，性價比超高！酒店乾淨衞生，每個房間都有浴缸。這家酒店主打一個雨林叢林式沉浸式體驗，每天能看到發現大小蜥蜴，各種鳥類，樹懶，每週都有夜行動物參觀活動。睡眠超好因為綠化超好，負氧離子很高。早餐品類豐富，酒店服務員很nice。酒店位置也很好，周邊餐館，酒吧，按摩店，超市種類豐富，完全夠了！真心牆裂推薦，我不是託！

為了斯米蘭出海方便，定的這家酒店，酒店環境很好，周邊很安靜，可以走到海灘和一個小的繁華區域，這是意外的驚喜。總之非常非常合適安靜度假～

Ein Hotel mitten in der Natur. Bunte Vögel und Warane. Unglaublich gutes Frühstück mit viel Abwechslung. Strand sauber und Pools niemals überfüllt.
