If you are looking for total rejuvenation, the Quan Spa offers a range of traditional Thai therapies. Please note that the use of the Spa centre, including massages, treatments, and the steam room, may be subject to additional charges.
Beach
The hotel is situated directly on the quiet Merlin Beach. This stretch of coast is famous for its unique house reef, meaning you can grab a mask and snorkel to see tropical fish right in front of the resort. Because the beach is naturally rocky in places, it remains one of the most tranquil spots in Phuket, perfect for sunset beach walks away from the crowds.
Sport and Entertainment
Stay active in the 24-hour modern fitness centre or take part in a yoga session on the deck. For something unique, you can join the resident conservationists to learn about the butterfly breeding programme within the resort grounds. As the sun sets, the atmosphere shifts to a chic setting for relaxation with live acoustic music at the bar.
Family Amenities
Families will feel right at home with plenty of space to play. Kids will love the dedicated splash zone with its own water features and the supervised kids' club which offers daily activities like face painting and Thai crafts. There is also a shallow paddling pool specifically designed for the youngest travellers to enjoy safely.
