“It's a new building, so it's clean and the parking lot is spacious. They prepared it so that I could stay comfortably from the first day. And I brought my cat, and it took some time for him to get used to it, but he came back safely. If you have a pet, this is a good choice. The best part is that Songjeong Forest Trail and the beach are nearby. Thanks to that, I often went for walks, and there is a Hanaro Mart, E-Mart, Starbucks, and Mega Coffee nearby. I recommend this place.”

“Living for 2 weeks at Yeongjin Beach~ I had high expectations because it was my first solo trip in my life. Above all, it was so great to be able to face the ocean every day and do the beach squats I wanted to do several times a day. The accommodation 3 minutes from the beach was really nice, and the house was clean and the owner's meticulousness was evident everywhere. I was flustered because the vacuum cleaner didn't work, but they even came to find it for me. It turned out that I misunderstood because I didn't know how to use it. Haha I'm so sorry~~ I regretted taking all the home appliances and sturdy dishwashing detergents from home even though the house was fully equipped. My daughter came and stayed with me for a few days, and we ate and looked around delicious restaurants, bakeries, cafes, and crabs all over Gangneung. I highly recommend Healing House for both one-month and one-week stays.”

LiveAnywhere is Korea's favorite short-term and vacation rental platform, built for extended stays of one week to six months. From trendy studios in Seoul to relaxing beach houses in Jeju, every home comes fully furnished and can be booked in minutes through the LiveAnywhere app.
It works much like Airbnb, but with a structure designed for longer visits: competitive weekly and monthly rates instead of nightly pricing, no repeated cleaning fees, and utilities included in your payment. That's why an extended stay in Korea through LiveAnywhere often costs noticeably less than booking the same period on a nightly platform.
Some listings include a small security deposit, far smaller than the large lump-sum deposits required by traditional Korean leases. Your deposit is held securely in escrow by LiveAnywhere, not by the host. After checkout, the host checks the property, and once they confirm there are no issues, your deposit is refunded within a maximum of 5 business days.
LiveAnywhere is one of the more practical Airbnb alternatives in Gangreung for stays of a week or longer. Because pricing is built around longer bookings instead of nightly turnover, the same place often costs less than paying night by night.
