Gimnyeong Seongsegi Beach

The hotel is average. They provide some toiletries, towels, and 2 water bottles. There is a pool. But, to use the pool, you have to rent a towel for 2,000 KRW and a swimming cap for 3,000 KRW per person. The hairdryer did not have a wall mount and the nozzle attachment kept falling off. It takes 5,000 KRW for each the washer and dryer.

Great little villa with a view of all the shrimp boats at night.

The hotel is in Seogwipo, the South part of the island, approx. 55 min drive from Jeju City airport. The area is quiet and secluded, but this also means there is a drive to get anywhere. The closest sandy beach is a 20 min drive. Given the location, a car is really needed. We didn’t have one and Uber-ed everywhere which can get expensive. The hotel while older, is quite beautiful, especially inside - the rooms and lobby decor are sparkling. The pool area outside can use some updating, especially the lounge chairs and umbrellas. The breakfast was very good, lots of choices both Korean and Western. The hotel also has nice facilities including a gym and a playroom for children. In addition, it has free laundry which is unique for hotels. We really enjoyed our time there and the staff was always attentive to our needs and helpful.
