Pros:

The staff was courteous, very friendly and warm in their reception. The food was great, clean beach, no external or internal disturbances. It's not a huge facility so I don't have to walk too far to get to anywhere. The place to s like a nice, safe, friendly little community.

We made the most of it
Pros:

Meals were tasty with generous servings
Place was clean and room was spacious
Staff were guest friendly.. Especially Charlie in the dining area

Cons:

Resort was marketed as all inclusive but it was not all inclusive. There were no mon motorised water sports. It was really just a villa, not a hotel. There was no nightly entertainment. Swimming pool was suddenly deep so felt unsafe.

A Relaxing Emancipation Weekend at Merrils 2
Pros:

The staff were extremely hospitable. Each day my family and I felt more and more at home. The rooms were large and suitably furnished with mini fridge, two beds, television, dresser and stool, iron and ironing board, adequate lighting, air conditioning, hair dryer etc.
The beach was close to the rooms and so the walk was short to get there.
The dining experience was superb with friendly professional staff. There was great variety in the meals. Big up to Charlie. He really went over and beyond to cater to our dining needs.

Cons:

The rooms could do with some updating

Extremely dissatisfied
Pros:

The location along negril white sandy beaches was perfect.

Cons:

1. Parking is extremely limited.
2. The room wasn't clean. From entering the door all the way to the bathroom was dirty. Scales and dirt all over the shower. My wife showered in her slippers. I just didn't shower (no, I'm not nasty, just couldn't convince myself to do it).
3.Towels not clean.
4. No was cloths provided.
5. Says all inclusive but it's a scam. You get breakfast, lunch and dinner. All limited variety and extremely small portions.
6. Pool was dirty and desperately in need of a paint job.
7. Beach was dirty. From seaweed being plentiful in the water to the debris on the shore. Needs attention.

In summary. I paid for 2 rooms for 2 nights. Left after 1 night, could endure the 2nd. Just showing how dissatisfied we were. Wasn't even given a refund for the 2nd night. From the looks of things the owner doesn't really cares about his customers. He seems to be more for the money. Here's a tip for him; happy customer = return customer + good review + referral which means more money for you. Bad product = one time sale, no return and bad reviews resulting in a failing business.

STOP SCAMMING PEOPLE WHO WORK HARD FOR THEIR MONEY AND WANTS TO ENJOY IT!

Sorpréndentemente tranquilo y acogedor
Pros:

Me gustó que limpian la playa, tiene buenas asoleadoras, tiene seguridad, el mar lo tienen demarcado para evitar algún golpe con lanchas. Me gusta el sistema todo incluido. La zona de habitaciones es bonita, son como mini casas, hay agua y café disponible todo el día. Hay un supermercado al ladito el wifi funciona muy bien y los granizados son espectaculares!

Cons:

Que los taxis desde el hotel a ricks café que está a 4 km salen a 20 USD por persona y por trayecto.

Possono cominciare a chiudere, hanno tutte le carte in regola per farlo
Pros:

Posizione e potenziale

Cons:

Sporca, bagno sporco all’arrivo wc sporco di pipì, scarafaggi che scendevano dal tetto, mancanza di acqua dalla prima sera, cm se fosse un optional e non una brutta figura per la struttura ospitante.
Acquistata una camera vista mare, all arrivo hanno detto che a loro non risultava.
Bevande spazzatura piene di zucchero e alcolici scadenti, dolci e snack miseri e industriali.
