Phuket Marriott Resort and Spa Merlin Beach

Igor Culava

We stayed at this beautiful hotel for several days and overall had a pleasant experience. We had both breakfast and dinner included in our stay, and the service was consistently high-quality. The rooms were spacious, clean, and nicely designed. The hotel grounds are also beautiful and very well maintained. The food served at the restaurant offers something for every taste, and the prices are quite reasonable. The beach is lovely, but the entrance into the water is difficult due to many rocks and corals, making it unsuitable for children. In my opinion, the hotel could at least clear a section in the middle of the beach by removing the larger stones to create a more comfortable swimming area. Unfortunately, all these positive aspects were overshadowed by one major issue: the lack of sound insulation in our room. During the night, a lot of noise entered the room — mainly through the entrance door, but also through the thin walls that are not soundproofed. If you plan to stay here, I recommend avoiding rooms located close to the reception area, as you may not be able to sleep due to constant noise from staff or other guests. I would gladly return to this hotel in the future, but only after improvements are made regarding sound insulation. I am writing this review with the hope that the hotel will take this feedback into consideration and continue to improve, as it has the potential to become even better.

I stayed four nights at this wonderful resort, an absolutely amazing place with exceptional staff and truly five-star dining options. Nothing is ever too much trouble. Every member of the team goes above and beyond to ensure an unforgettable stay. The grounds are immaculate, and the attention to detail is second to none. Thank you for the wonderful complimentary upgrade to swim up room. A world-class resort with a world-class team. Special thanks and appreciation to: • Management Team
• Food & Beverage Team 
• Housekeeping Team - Petparat Susamakkee
• All staff members throughout the resort Thank you, Marriott Merlin Beach. I look forward to visiting again in the future.

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!

Myself and my partner stayed at the hotel for 2 nights on our honeymoon. If we were to mention the good, the restaurant staff, housekeeping and general manner is quite friendly and helpful. The food was also up there with global Marriott standards, we had a very good variety served for breakfast and all dishes were top notch. We did order dinner from the Ala carte menu at the Thai restaurant which was superb. Very generous portions at a decent price. We also ordered in room dining which was quick and good for the price we paid. We also used the hotel spa, which was quite nice and the staff there were really good at their trade. The space was also quite clean and classy. Although I have to mention a couple of negatives, prior to our trip I had mentioned on the booking.com chat that we were traveling for our honeymoon, which was noted. Although we were placed within the wing of the hotel where there were multiple families and kids playing outside on the halls at early hours in the day. We also booked a terrace access room to easily access the pool, only to find out we were right outside the kids pool and play area. I’m sure a family with kids would have really appreciated this, although for ourselves we had to go through the middle of the hotel to access the adult pool and the amenities it offers. Secondly the in room amenities were quite basic, the television offered 40 channels most of them either news or of foreign language. Being 2025 even the smallest motels around the world now offer the ability to either pair your phone or use smart apps like YouTube/Netlfix. The location of the hotel is really quite nice and a place to visit, if you are looking for a family vacation this is the place to be. But if you are looking for a peaceful vacation with a bit more luxury, there are many other places around Phuket that offer much more comfort and luxury for much less price than this.

Visited dated checked in on 12th Dec 2025. Reached the lobby, met a very sweet smiling and helpful staff, welcome us, quickly helped to wheel up our luggages, asking whether we want to go for sightseeing first then check in? She able to help to keep our luggages and arrange the free shuttle transport in within 5 mins time. Saw her name tag, named Polla. She indeed, quick and outstanding, she quickly prepared blue pea flower cooling drink for us too and just nice the shuttle bus came. Our last day shopping, we are packing our clothing and goodies at the lobby, prepared to go airport, actually the concierge staffs facing the front staircase even more helpful than the reception check in staff, to be honest, Ms Polla even helped me to fold up our plastic bags and helped to call a big clean comfortable taxi for a reasonable price to airport! Good job! Ms Polla! We will recommend our friends to come to this resort!
