2.Bayhill Pool & Villa
베이힐풀앤빌라
If your idea of a perfect romantic weekend getaway includes unwinding in the comfort of your private villa overlooking the ocean, secluded from the public and loud city noise, Bayhill Pool & Villa offers precisely that.

아하
AHHA pension is the perfect space for a group of friends looking to explore Jeju island while still having every possible accommodating facility on site.

11.Sora's House - a fairy tale house
소라의집 - 동화 속 집
Probably one of the most uniquely built accommodations on this list, the architecture of this house is strongly inspired by a Greek Mediterranean-style apparent by its textured white plastered walls, exposed wooden beams, and ornate details. Although Mediterranean homes were designed to blend in with their natural surroundings, this one is more of a peculiarity, but its simple white palette of colors does complement the beautiful blue skies of Jeju - winter islanders fear not, your fireplace’s heat will contrast with the greyer skies. The curved lines of every room of this Airbnb are bathed by natural lighting, and the rustic-like atmosphere of the interiors are sure to transport you to a one-of-a-kind experience, closer to the sea of the Greek islands rather than the East China Sea.

14.Hidden Cliff Hotel & Nature
히든 클리프 호텔 & 네이쳐
This one is for when you just need 5-star hotel accommodation with no fuss. Although the rooms aren’t particularly memorable - this being that they look like any other straightforward 5-star rooms - what is noteworthy in this resort is the level of quality service and comfort experienced within its walls. The huge infinity pool overlooking a breathtaking luscious green jungle is also not so bad. As the name blatantly suggests, Hidden Cliff hotel is exactly that: a hidden cliff located within thick woods and trekking trails. The six pillars on which the hotel is founded (both physically and spiritually) represent Jeju’s sky, cloud, grassland, cliff, ocean, and land. One very memorable thing is that it is also home to the country’s firefly eco-friendly reserve, so keep an eye out for shining stars that move.
