Today, I returned home after a 10-day, 9-night stay in Gangneung at Pink Villa. The past 10 days seemed to fly by, and my family is filled with regret. However, thanks to Pink Villa, which was perfect and had everything we needed, we've still got a lot of good memories. I'm leaving a few reviews to help others enjoy their stay in Gangneung.
- Host: The hosts were punctual and explained everything to us. The politeness of the host family, especially the children, instilled a deep sense of trust in us.
- Interior: Exactly as shown in the photos. I could feel the attention to detail in every detail, and I experienced no inconvenience during our 10-day stay.
- Parking: The villa can accommodate up to four cars, and the public parking lot right in front can accommodate about six cars. However, when parking in the public parking lot, they usually park in two rows of three cars each, so be careful not to get upset if the person behind you doesn't answer their phone. (I actually had one ㅠㅠ)
- We stayed during peak season (late July, early August), so I was worried there would be a ton of mosquitoes, but surprisingly, our family didn't get a single bite during the 10 days we stayed. Even though we didn't turn on the mat the host provided, we didn't encounter a single mosquito. (However, you need to be quick when closing the front door and scout around the area beforehand.)
- Yeongjin Beach is literally a 2-minute walk away. A convenience store is also a 2-minute walk away. There are plenty of restaurants within walking distance (I personally recommend "Boodle Fighter," a top choice for both adults and children). We went to all the famous restaurants and tourist attractions, including Jumunjin, Gangmun, and Gyeongpo, and almost all of them were within 20-30 minutes.
Overall, it was a great value accommodation for a family of four, and I definitely want to visit again if I get the chance!
