SEAMARQ Hotel

Sandwiched between the East Sea and Gyeongpo Lake on a pine-covered hillside, SEAMARQ is a coastal luxury hotel where every room was clearly positioned with a view in mind, whether that's open water, the lake, or the green mountains rolling behind it. Light pours through all day. There's an observation deck, indoor and outdoor pools, and a restaurant doing an elegant take on traditional Korean cuisine, a short walk from the beach.
