Jeju Booyoung Resort

This is a nice hotel. The hotel has a beautiful swimming pool and the room is big and comfortable for the price. The sunset I saw in the pool was really fascinating. Warm water came out well and the touch-type temperature setting was good. The bedding was cozy and the amenities were of good quality. It serves delicious snacks and breakfast, which is perfect even if you're not hungry. Above all, they have a convenience store and a mini market. Staff are so kind and helpful. The staff personally came to check if there was anything needed. Definitely it's well worth a visit.

I had a conference at ICC Jeju. Booyoung hotel was really great because this is right next to the ICC so that you do not get wet even if it rains. The hotel consists of a hotel part and a resort, the latter more like a condominium. I stayed at the resort. The room was extremely large. With a great ocean view, I really had time for contemplation. There are a few negatives: (1) there are few restaurants or shops in the area where you can spend time. Only one convenience store within the complex. We needed to walk uphill like 30 minutes in hot weather to reach a mid-scale grocery store. (2) Room was spacious with dining facility, but you cannot actually cook. There is only one hot pot without any utensil (no cookery and no spoons except for a few cups). We were perhaps not supposed to cook inside, even if this is a condominium style resort. (3) The complex is very large and you would have to walk a long time like more than 10 minutes from the entrance to the room. This is likely because my room was the one with an ocean view. (4) I did not have a chance to visit the outdoor pool. I did use the indoor pool. I found it a bit weird and inconvenient that we change clothes only in the shower booth (only one for men and one for women). I am not sure if there was any locker facility in the pool area. Despite these negatives, I think Booyoung offers a great value compared to Lotte and Shilla hotel nearby (they are very expensive).
