Where to Stay in Jeju, South Korea When on an Island Road Trip

This tiny island off the coast of South Korea has a bundle of things to do and places to see.

We squeezed it all in in just four days, which ended up being just enough time!

We rented a car and took off, wandering the island spontaneously. Since we were there for four days, we had to figure out where to stay in Jeju. And now that we have done the legwork for you, you can simply choose from the list!

There are four main attractions/areas to Jeju, and while my article on our road trip around Jeju Island lays out an itinerary for what you will see in each of these four areas, this article will help you book a sweet sleep spot.

You can visit four areas in four days and rest easy that you have a place to stay at the end of your own sightseeing road trip. Take note: the best places to stay in Jeju are mapped according to the things to do so you can wake up and be at the spot you need to be!
