Hotels in Geoje

For a coastal escape that blends industrial history with island relaxation, look to Geoje. This is South Korea's second-largest island, where the legacy of shipbuilding in Okpo and Gohyeon contrasts with the quiet coves and pine forests of Haegeumgang and Oedo. The main draw is the raw, sculpted coastline of Hallyeo Maritime National Park, best explored by ferry to see sea stacks like Geobukseon Turtle Rock. Don't miss the haunting, large-scale installations at the Maemi Memorial Park, which chronicle a tragic typhoon.

Geoje is ideal for couples and families seeking a slower pace, with most visitors basing themselves around the ferry terminals in Jangseungpo or the central hub of Gohyeon for convenience. While having a car makes exploring the island's scattered beaches easiest, an extensive local bus network and taxis connect the major towns. The island is linked to the mainland by several impressive bridges, putting Busan's Gimhae International Airport about an hour and a half away by road.

On HOTEVI, you'll find 17 places to stay across Geoje. Accommodation is practical and straightforward, dominated by mid-range hotels and motels in the port towns, alongside a growing selection of pension-style guesthouses and a few full-service resorts perched along the southern shores for those wanting a view with their morning coffee.
