Seogwipo-si, Hawaii[similar]: holiday resort
-
I've never been to Hawaii. It is a place full of trees with long hair, and you can only know it by seeing and hearing that it is an island that is the cornerstone of honeymooners. I always draw places I haven't been to with my imagination through knowledge. At the same time, these days, you can get a rough overview of the world through Google. It is very similar to the image you see. It is like the fact that the green grass, palm trees, and the cool sea face each other. Although this hotel has been built for quite some time, there is no regret compared to other hotels. Rather, as a hotel built a long time ago, the size, convenience, and robustness of the rooms are better than those of today. Finally, the strength of old hotels is that the flow of services is very smooth. Veterans are in charge of it, so you can trust it. However, if there is a difference from these days, there is a very elegant walking course. In general, it is different from these days, which try to enrich the experience in the space adjacent to the hotel or inside. It is definitely a space where natural elements can be used well in a traditional way.

The promenade here is attached to the back of the hotel building and is filled with expansive lawns and lush palm trees. Of course, with the Korean octagonal garden and Sujeongwon together, it is a bit far from the Hawaiian sentiment, but somehow it is not awkward. It does not end there, but this trail is also connected to the Jeju Olle Trail, where the experience of walking is further expanded. I want to tell you that it is a really good walking course that even the author can enjoy the quiet impression twice at night and in the morning. At night, I turned on my cell phone's flashlight and enjoyed the rough course, but thanks to that, I also had a dreamy experience of the promenade focused on the sound of the waves and the moon illuminating the lake garden. Also, in the morning, after having breakfast, he quietly came down and walked without thinking, carrying his back. In the middle of the night, he wandered around the garden that he couldn't go because it looked rough, and he enjoyed the flower trees and new paths that didn't look dark. A tennis court and an arboretum were also discovered that morning.

Finally, this space serves as a lounge in the huge space of the lobby. It is a space layout that makes good use of the hilly terrain of the sea that can be seen right through the window. If you go down the circular stairs below it, you will find a restaurant where you can have breakfast. Again, a variety of food is provided. It is a place where you can see the swimming pool, palm trees and the sea of Jeju Island well from the window seat, which is well-organized with menus that are not lacking in Korean and Western dishes.

The room is the point. Here, the floor shape in the form of a breakwater is built up as it is. It is easy to understand the overall shape if you think of 'Pizza Saver', which fixes the pizza so that it does not stick. As such, if one leg faces the sea, many of the other parts can look at the sea together. It's also a way to offer more ocean views. And the sea seen from the room is not the glass railing, but the sea seen through the white wall. Rather, it doesn't seem like it these days, so the impression was pleasant and enjoyable. I felt like I had become a person living in a particularly nice villa, and I felt a little bit better. With a large area, high floor height, sunlight, and a cool sea breeze, I thought it would be a great place to spend a day at the hotel leisurely.

As you can see the exotic scenery outside, this space is also a place to make full use of the large garden in the back.
