Exactly what we wanted, quiet leafy area and once we our room got the we had booked, (first we were in the main building and we were ), we could pure relaxation enjoy. The complex sees on the first glance scruffy but we must rethink. When we fall in the autumn the leaves, here the entire year and the gardeners are every day in continuous service. Breakfast is great.
Guest structure is european mixed. read more

The hotel has a open lobby with reception on these wooden bridges and arcades hallways to the 1a 2-story houses with a total of 236 rooms.
We had a double room deluxe and our child a superior double room. The deluxe double room was obviously brand new and had a free-standing tub with ebenderdiger shower, about 40 square meters large and was in the entire much high-quality equipped than the superior double room, which was already a bit shabby and obviously already getting old was. There was the standard rather basic. Since one however the entire day at the beach ... is, it is nevertheless more than adequate. The rooms were very clean.
The guest structure there were mostly german, austrian, french and skandinav. Countries. read more

The hotel are really very nice laid out. It is in a tropical landscape integrated, so that you the size of the hotel hardly noticed. The buildings see beautiful and fit of consignments tropical picture. It is consistently clean and is in a good state. While we were there, there were mainly german (Bayern) and scandinavian in the hotel. All age groups were available. Which wi-fi is concerned, it is not so great, there only in the lobby, with expensive drinks, usable. read more

All previous positive comments on the hotel i can only confirm.
Only drawback (as in most versus): nonsmoker protection is as good as not available - private balcony hardly usable, if left and right of it smoked On the lawn dasselben between loud smokers can tell you anything more from the ocean breeze. Only for breakfast there was a smoker and nichtrauchereich. Here there are everywhere on the world still lagging behind.
Restaurants outside the hotel are all alright. Especially good value for money in the Tong kao (http://www. Facebook. com / #! /pages/tongkao-khaolak restaurant/ 448950678498803 )-easy to find: ... outside the holte to all other restaurants and to the major road, the right turn off. It is the next to last restaurant on the right side. read more

An outstandingly beautiful hotel. It consists of lots of small terraced houses, the thai style in a kind of artificial jungle scenery integrated. There is across the area lots of small swimming pools, the beautiful landscape in the hotel complex integrate. The beach is wonderful and very clean. As had the feeling, in a first class our jungle camp to stay, instead of in a typical tourist hotel. We can really recommend the hotel to anyone. read more

We have a week's swimming vacation the merlin spent, wanted to relax and no desk etc. Make. The is excellent managed. A very beautiful area directly at the beach, nice big room, through the lush vegetation in the entire resort these are somewhat dark, but not a problem for us represented. Friendly staff, delicious breakfast and as i have already mentioned a very nice beach. At night we were always in the more immediate vicinity or Khao Lak food.
Mixed guest structure, lots of guests from the german-speaking area and Scandinavia. Annoying i found, the partial early chairs on the ... beach were reserved and then from lunch were full. Still was still somewhere to find a beach chair. Otherwise i can the resort absolutely recommend read more

Very well maintained quiet hotel. Was optimal in the jungle integrated. Rooms were big enough and every day thoroughly cleaned. Daily fresh hand towels and beach towels, and toiletries. Breakfast was very good, varied and fresh. The evening buffets are very recommendable, here you can get for ' small money ' the best treats. The chairs at the beach were in comparison to the surrounding hotels very comfortable. Staff is very friendly, if you from the ladies at the reception it's expense. Will definitely book again. read more

Our time of travel: january 2013 until february 2013.
The distance from the airport about 1 hour. The hotel borders directly at the hotel emerald.
The hotel complex is beautifully located in the jungle, the garden is beautifully designed. There are 4 different pools and children's swimming pool with slide available.
Often swim sheets in the pool, but this is simply not be avoided, the gardeners walk daily through the complex and remove the sheets in the pools.
But winds a 'brown soup' in the small stream by the whole area, these lured many mosquitos on.
The beach chairs were ... already at 8:00 a. m. in the morning, probably from 'german tourists', manned, from 10:00 a. m. it was nearly impossible to get a beach chair.
Own drinks are on the lawn prohibited.
We had this hotel with breakfast and it was also good so, we could spontaneously after desire and mood eat out, where we wanted. Us moved it usually in the longtailboat to the main street, because the owner is still quite young and often small fun, even if it was always the same, it was always very pleasant there.
In the evening between 17:00 and 6:00 p. m. before the sun goes down, the cicadas the chirping at, this is a maniac noise, but very impressive. There is also in Khao Lak many geckos and mosquitoes.
At the beach one can take long walks and unforgettable sunsets. read more

The complex made directly with our arrival a beautiful, but huge impression. The room corridor (a total of 200 rooms) are winding in a spacious, tropical garden, therefore, everything large and not crowded. To the very nice sandy beach one runs only once across the garden. But unfortunately it was at the beach almost a thing of the impossibility, a couch to get, at least, if you don't directly before or after the breakfast a ' reserved. Since we often made a trip, and lunch to the beach arrived, we had mostly the doubtful pleasure, either a place in the ... sand or directly another beach outside the hotel to visit. Also the search for a free beach chair by one of the pools was unsuccessful (we on our departure day all pools the hotel searched - no chance). Another annoyance for us was, that wi-fi only in the lobby offered free of charge. We were previously still in different other hotels on the way, there was wi-fi in the entire grounds available, what we found pleasant. The guests the merlin mainly came from the german and scandinavian, there were many couples and some families. read more

We have the vacation on the beautiful beach really enjoyed, we always (even if we came later) got a beach chair. For breakfast were the staff a bit demotivated but maybe they were just tired or if i so some vacationers looked at as you tough dreinschauten i would also demotivated. The room was brilliant and was daily properly cleaned. A tip: my husband took me on the first day the maids orchideegesteckte ordered, they would very nicely put and the room looked even nicer and costs not that much. Everything was to our satisfaction and we was already repeatedly ... into Khao Lak but in the merlin it was still the best, just pure relaxation. read more

Great hotel with great service and very nice staff. The beach is well, at the peripheral areas is unfortunately also trash to find. The food is very good and varied. There is a small and sufficient fitness room. Schnupperkurse for the diving in one of the many and beautiful pools offered.
At the beach you can go jogging.
The food in the hotel restaurant is a little expensive than outside. Until 15:30 there is a lunch between 4 and 6 Euro inclusive drinks (pizza, pasta, feel like thai food plus fruchtshake ).
On foot one reaches the next taxi ... rank, as well as restaurants and shops within 5 minutes. There are good restaurants with delicious feel like thai food. You can get to 2. for about 10 Euro inclusive drinks good food! With the taxi for 150 Bhat with maximum people (circa 4 Euro) and for 200 Bhat with more than 3 people (circa 5 Euro) after Khao Lak City drive. You sit in the back on a covered pickup. The journey takes about 10 minutes. In Khao Lak City you can to your hearts content strolling: clothes, t-shirts, towels, shorts, sunglasses and much more! The you can also dry cleaning and laundry done cheap. A visit to the happy snapper is a must, if you good cocktails and live music like. A show with shemales is served in the adjoining bang niang in the moo moo bar. read more

In january we were about three weeks in the merlin resort and we so far felt very comfortable. The hotel is located somewhat away from Khao Lak (about four kilometers from the centre). It is nice to nature integrated, much green around. The beautiful beach and the sea were very clean. The complex is very complicated, so beginning you has difficulties, to orient yourself. We had a couple of days problem thus, the right way to the beach or to the room back to find. Our room was very nice with a large comfortable bed and a large cover.
The ... staff could be generally somewhat friendly be, in the hotel and especially in the breakfast area you miss the typical smile the thais. Neither friendly open head in our opinion nor tip changed something, which we a great shame found. So we have the in Thailand have never experienced something like that. Different was the case of the maids, all very friendly were. Our room was also always in a top condition, very clean- there is nothing to moan about. Also everywhere on the complex was the cleanliness exemplary.
The breakfast was extensive and very tasty, since everyone should have found something, what him it tastes. From various breads, toast, muesli, juice, fruit, yoghurt over salads, different hot thai and international meals to pancakes, waffles and eggs in the various variations, the one with the egg station freshly prepared, was everything available, always very fresh and appetising. Also the food, we lunch at the beach restaurant got, was always delicious.
Right next to the hotel there are some shops, restaurants and a taxi station, so that you easy to Khao Lak enter. Again and again we can recommend, a scooter for rent, so you are on your own the area explore can. We never bad experiences with the driving fashion the thais were made. It was definitely to, that the scooter is assured, this is usually not the case. In the Khao Lak Land Discovery you get for example with insurance, what we saw.
Special tips we want mention:
1. phukaolak restaurant in the center of Khao Lak: very friendly staff and great food as a large selection
2. cocktail bar right at the entrance of Khao Lak, opposite from laguna resort, that is there, where the big picture of the king stands.
3. restaurant Bella Italia in Khao Lak, if one times no appetite for thai food -good italian kitchen and extremely friendly staff. To find it, if one before the nangthong supermarket to the left in the direction beach runs, approximately 300 meters of the main street way on the left side read more

The hotel is great for silence searchers, therefore is also the average age rather high. The typical guests were deutschspraichige couples in the middle age. read more

The hotel lies at a slope and in the jungle integrated. The room is spacious and in top condition, especially the bathroom was piccobello what we in tropical countries rarely experienced. Lcd tv with german wave, fridge, kettle with free coffee and a safe are available. The complex is in well-kept condition and the staff always friendly and helpful. Nearby there are plenty of restaurants and small shops (be careful because the indian at the start are very pushy ),apart from that you can to Khao Lak with the taxi for about 4 €drive. It was a relaxing vacation ... as this beach section no motorized water sports businesses was. read more
