JW Marriott Jeju Resort & Spa
District de Namjeju|À 1.93km de la Seogwipo Etamra
The journey from Jeju International airport to this resort took about almost 90 minutes. However, once you enter the area and step-in to the lobby, I knew there's something special about this place, the world around you suddenly stop and built an atmosphere to tell you “it’s time to relax and enjoy your time here”. My detailed review follows: 1) Location: Located in Seogwipo which is the south end of Jeju-do island, mind you it's far from the airport. One-way taxi from airport straight to the hotel would cost about 50,000 won. The bus to Seogwipo town would cost around 2,000 - 3,000 won, I can continue to take another bus and stop at the resort gate but I prefer taxi from the Seogwipo town to the hotel for 7,000 - 8,000 won. Either you go by taxi or bus, the duration is about 80 - 90 minutes. The resort is located in a cliff area, so don't expect a nice beach, but the view is amazing. Also there's a walking track in front of the hotel that connects to Oedolgae rocks. I did the walk and it's beautiful especially if you have a clear day. As I have mentioned before, if you need groceries, the town center is just 10 mins away by taxi or bus. There's e-mart, McDonalds, Starbucks, also pharmacy. 2) Lobby/Reception: Unlike typical check-in process, we asked to be seated in their comfy lobby while enjoying South Korean delicacies. Then the reception team will asked our ID and credit card to process our check-in. It doesn't take long but within 5 minutes, they came back to us, explained everything about the resort and facilities, and then one of the associate escorted me to my room. Once in the room, they may come in to our room (you may opt-out for this) and explain all the room features so you don't have to be puzzled figuring out stuff on your own. Overall, it's a pleasant experience. Their open air lobby is just beautiful. The associates will be always there to help with whatever you need. 3) Room: While my suite night awards request is declined, they manage to upgrade me from Deluxe Garden View to Deluxe Ocean View. The room itself is a mixed of South Korean traditional with a bit of modern interior design. It's spacious, comfy, supported with a high-tech toilet seat and modern connectivity. Great lighting and you can set the nice ambient as well as much as you like with the light switch. The shower + tub combination looks great although the water pressure could've been better because it took awhile to fill the bathtub. The view from the balcony area is amazing. There is one design issue (or design flaw?) that can be problematic, the bedside light switch and electric plug are located inside a drawer, I don't know who approved this design. While it looks neat and organized, it become a problem especially when you want to charge your phone/camera/laptop etc. overnight, you cannot close the drawer as the cable/charger head will get in the way and I hurt my knees a few times when I got up for toilet especially at night. I can chose not to charge my s
