"Amazing, beautiful resort! So beautiful and peaceful. Very clean. The most amazing staff! "

"We had an incredible stay at the Marriott Phuket Merlin Beach. Our swim-out room was absolutely amazing — the perfect blend of luxury and relaxation. The beds were extremely comfortable, and we especially loved the day bed on our patio, where we spent many afternoons napping and soaking in the peaceful atmosphere. The staff and amenities were fantastic from start to finish. The food and drinks were delicious, and everyone we met went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. A very special thank you to Ice, whose compassion and understanding during a family issue meant more to me than he knows. His assistance was truly appreciated. And a big thank you as well to Dew, who greeted us with such warmth every day — he is the sweetest young man and always made us feel welcome. We highly recommend this resort and would return in a heartbeat!"

"The staff was very friendly and the resort had a lot of amenities. Only a couple of minor issues that were quickly resolved by the staff. "

"The staff was amazingly accommodating & kind! It is a beautiful property & very close walking distance to anything that is needed. Great pools & lots of monkeys in the trees to watch! "

"I loved this hotel! From start to finish we received excellent service. The moment we checked in they offered us a free upgraded room which was awesome after such a stressful day of traveling. The breakfast was decent with lots of options. The Italian restaurant was good! I wish they would make their drinks a little stronger at the bar. The hotel is super close to Patong beach and they have long tail boats that will take you to Freedom Beach which is considered the one of the nicest beaches in Phuket. It was also convenient to lots of bars and restaurant. Would definitely stay here again! "
