Just get weary over in popular holiday destination (7)

I believe the answer is:

merited

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'just' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

I can't explain the rest of the clue.

(Other definitions for merited that I've seen before include "Was worthy" , "appropriate" , "Properly earned or deserved" , "Deresved" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times and The Times.
