Many guests note the extensive and diverse selection of foods available, including options to cater to vegan diets with a range of plant-based milks. The food is frequently highlighted as tasty, fresh and of high quality. Guests find the breakfast experience to be an indulgent and satisfying start to their day with phrases like "lavish" and "beyond imagination" used to convey the abundance and appeal of the offerings. Despite some remarks about the setting resembling a kibbutz dining room and a few less enthusiastic comments, the overall sentiment remains very positive, making it clear that breakfast at Merom Golan Resort is a highlight for many visitors.

Dinner
Guests at Merom Golan Resort have shared mixed reviews about their dining experiences. On the positive side, the resort offers a variety of dining options, including a meat restaurant and a small local cafe, both of which provide delicious meals. The Klompos steakhouse and Habokrim restaurant received praise for their good food and the pizzeria in the park was also noted for serving quality dishes. Guests appreciated the always-available hot drinks and cookies in the lobby, adding a nice touch to their stay.

However, there were several areas of concern. Friday night dinners were often unavailable in the restaurant and instead had to be arranged through Reception, which some guests found inconvenient. The breakfast restaurant doubled as a dinner venue, but it was frequently criticized for being expensive and not worth the price. Additionally, the service quality in the breakfast restaurant received poor marks, contributing to a less enjoyable dining experience.

While the varied and tasty dinners were a highlight for some, others felt the lack of flexibility, such as the inability to request a late check-out, diminished their overall satisfaction. Despite the abundance of dining options within the kibbutz, better service and more diverse dinner choices could enhance the overall guest experience at the resort.

The décor across various rooms is noted for being pleasant with some providing a charming, cottage-like feel that adds to the getaway experience. The resort's setting and landscape contribute to a peaceful atmosphere, enhancing the overall stay.

However, a few concerns are raised regarding the maintenance and size of certain accommodations. Some rooms, especially older ones, are perceived as small or outdated, occasionally leading to discomfort. Issues such as harsh beds, cramped bathrooms and proximity to less desirable locations like a chicken coop are noted. There's also a sentiment that some rooms do not provide good value for money, particularly when compared to the well-appointed cabins and suites.

The primary issue revolves around the pillows, which several guests found to be uncomfortable or worn out. Additionally, some guests noted that the mattresses were either too hard or worn out, affecting their overall comfort.

For couples, a common complaint was finding two single beds pushed together instead of a proper double bed, which often resulted in a gap in the middle. There were also isolated issues such as inappropriate blankets for the season and even ants in the beds.
