Hotels With Pools in Jeollanam-do, South Korea

"After a satisfying stay at Sono Felice Del Pino in Goseong, Gangwon Province last winter, we decided to visit Jindo Sol Beach this summer. The resort itself was perfect: from the immaculate facilities and stunning landscaping to the friendly service provided by the front desk staff, everything was exceptional. However, our evening was completely ruined by a very unpleasant experience at one of the on-site chicken restaurants. When I went down to place a takeout order, I was told to return in 15 minutes. Upon my return, I was informed that my order had been missed and was asked to wait an additional 5 minutes. However, it took much longer than 5 minutes before our food was finally brought out. I completely understand that mistakes happen, so I wasn't upset simply because my order was initially missed. However, what truly disappointed and angered me was the staff member's attitude: instead of even a simple apology, they unceremoniously dropped the food on the table without a word and walked away. I wasn't asking for anything extraordinary; I simply expected my order to be ready on time. And if an order is missed, I believe a basic courtesy, even a simple apology, is standard practice for anyone in business. I even questioned if I was being overly sensitive, but after checking the reviews for this particular restaurant, I found numerous accounts of similar experiences from other customers. Of course, I understand that Sol Beach merely has a contractual relationship with this specific vendor. However, given the numerous promotional videos for this particular establishment found throughout the resort, I believe Sol Beach has a responsibility to oversee its operations to some extent, if only to protect its own image. Many reviews highlighted the sentiment that customers are treated without basic courtesy, as if they are merely one-time visitors who will buy once and never return. Is it fair to assume that these numerous customers will only visit Sol Beach once? It's hard to argue that poor management of these affiliated establishments won't directly affect Sono Resort's revenue. Overall Verdict: Jindo Sol Beach staff and facilities were perfect, but the service at the affiliated vendor was appalling. *(Note: The other on-site establishment, which would have been pictured here, provided excellent service. Please excuse the absence of photos.)"

"The view was stunning and the room was everything you need! There is a bus station by the hotel but the bus doesn't run often so we ended up using taxis more often."

"The issue with this hotel room is that when you adjust the temperature, the air conditioner/heater makes consistent and weird noises. I stayed in a corner room on the 6th floor, and the shower was clogged. Not to mention, skip the breakfast—it’s not worth the money, as there’s barely anything to eat. The staff were attentive, but overall, this hotel is not recommended."

"I went to Jeollanam-do on vacation, but it was snowing white Christmas, so how beautiful the birds are, delicious breakfast and hot springs, but the accommodation and old beds that seemed to have not been remodeled yet were a little like that, but 2 nights and 3 nights The trip on the job is satisfactory"

"The ultimate paid-for stay I had high expectations for this my third visit, but overall, I was very disappointed. My previous two stays were ocean views, but this time, I had a forest view, and the view of the artificial bamboo seemed a bit lacking. I had a child, so when I moved the bed to put it together, a lot of ramen crumbs came out, which was disappointing for the hygiene. The most disappointing thing was that the surrounding area was blocked by Winter Village, blocking any ocean views. Mankai was also expensive, and I had to pay at a kiosk and serve myself, which was disappointing. Parking was inconvenient after eating at an outside restaurant, and I ended up taking a taxi on my second night. Due to the numerous inconveniences, I'll probably choose a different accommodation next time."
