Haevichi Hotel and Resort Jeju

A fine upmarket hotel. Rooms are large, clean, and well maintained.From the time you enter, the staff are there to help. Most speak English. There is a hotel side and a resort side . Both are accessible from each other. A few 5 star restaurants and a piano bar. Prices are at the high end for food and drinks. Buffet Dinner is $140,000 korea . 3 pools in total. The resort pool opens at 1pm. Beautiful quiet pool with no children allowed . The hotel pool , one is indoors . They have pool rules for using these two pool .Everyone must get out of the pool for 10 minutes every hour . You must wear a swimming cap if swimming in the indoor pool , no footwear is allowed in the inside pool as well. The pool water in all 3 pools was crystal clear every day. Location is an hour from the main city of jeju. There are lots of little local restaurants, a 7/11, and a C.U convenient store within walking distance . A beach walk will take you to the larger end of town , with lots more restaurants.

The hotel is nothing like it looks. There is no beach nearby. The food options are very limited & they are very inflexible. The restaurants are closed most of the time even during regular hours. The resort pool doesnt open till 1pm. The other pool is so over full there is no space to even more. The staff is extremely untrained....especially to handle Non-Korean guests. Overall a terrible experience & should be avoided completely!! Its the worst so called resort I have ever stayed in!!

The hotel was clean and the staff were friendly, which we appreciated. However, a major downside was the strict and unexpected pool rules, which were not mentioned at the time of booking. All children — even those who can swim and are supervised by their parents — were required to wear life jackets in the 1.3m deep outdoor pool. During the lifeguards’ break, everyone, including adults, had to leave the water. On top of that, swim caps were mandatory in the indoor pool.
