Rich Biodiversity

Our resort is home to over 200 species of wildlife including colugos, owls, hanging parrots, flying lizards and more. With many local trees native to Phang Nga and Southern Thailand, our sustainable hotel property is a perfect habitat for almost 100 species of birds and the endangered slow loris.

Conserving Ancient Trees

Our hotel land in Phang Nga had always been full of ancient trees extending from Khao Lak-Lam Ru National Park. So we preserved most of the original trees during Khaolak Merlin Resort’s construction. Half of the hotel’s 30 rai is covered with greenery and ancient trees.

Stewart of the Land

Among our passionate sustainability team, we also have a permanent resident biologist to advise us about best practices to conserve the environment.

Water Conservation

Water is the most important resource in the rainforest. All our wastewater undergoes an extensive treatment process using purely organic filtration and cleansing systems. The treated water is reused to irrigate the plants and fill the streams on the property.

Waste Management

We minimise pollution through reducing, reusing and recycling solid waste. Our landfill waste is separated into types and kept in a trash sorting area, where local waste management companies can collect and recycle it, lowering the environmental impact.

Local Community

Khaolak Merlin Resort’s commitment to being a sustainable hotel means more than just supporting local ecosystems. It also includes a dedication to cooperating with and supporting local communities, especially in the nearby Thai Mueang district.

What Customer Say

An amazing hotel which ticked every box for us and we are planning to return.

The location is lovely. A beautiful beach which is safe to swim from and extensive gardens and pools. The feel of the whole hotel is one of being built in a peaceful location within the jungle.

There is lots of room for everyone with wildlife all around. Breakfast was first class and is in a lovely location, overlooking a pool and gardens. The room was clean and really nice and every single member of staff we came across during out stay was friendly and helpful.

Second time around and will not be last

The most amazing nature-friendly resort in Thailand. They care about nature and animals as well as their guests. The staff is extremely polite and always smiling and willing to help.

There are different activities every day that you can sign up for as well as different food buffets every night if you wish to try something different. They offer a gym, a tennis court and a spa with massages and sauna. The pools are really nice and there is no huge crowds or people reserving all the sunbeds early in the morning.

For us the best part was the food which was absolutely amazing and the nature inside the resort, with a huge variety of animals. Also we went in March and there were almost no mosquitoes.

A seaside oasis with top-notch staff!

A little corner of paradise! We had an unforgettable stay in this aptly named hotel: Rainforest meets the sea! The staff is attentive, friendly, smiling, and alert (tea and coffee are served directly in your cup at breakfast).

Our room was simple but comfortable, spacious, and the hygiene is impeccable. The bedding is excellent, even the baby bed is very service, offers very high-quality, fresh, delicious products at a very reasonable price. The garden is lush, maintained daily by an extraordinary team of gardeners. The pools are splendid, surrounded by vegetation, ultra-clean. The deckchairs are very comfortable. Despite the crowds in the hotel, there is a friendly atmosphere. Everyone greets each other. And you never feel like you’re stepping on each other’s toes because there is plenty of
space and different areas (those who prefer the pool with a slightly festive slide, those who prefer a quieter pool, the beach). Children are truly welcome. A park with swings, slides, sand games, balls, floats, and high chairs are available. We feel truly pampered by the hotel staff. This was our best vacation ever! We were able to recharge our batteries as a family and dream of coming back next year. A huge thank you to the entire Merlin team in Khaolak!!!
