This platform serves as a practical Airbnb alternative for stays of a month or longer, letting you browse properties, review verified details, and book your space online without visiting a local real estate office in person. The sections below outline current price ranges, available property types, and simple steps to secure your next home in Gangwon.

“I had such a wonderful two weeks here❤️ From the moment I walked in, I fell in love with the beautiful interior, the immaculate cleanliness, and the gorgeous sea view stretching out on both sides! The walk down to Eodal Beach is absolutely stunning, and it's great that Nonggol-damgil Cafe is nearby too! The fish market is also close by, so I had plenty of fresh scallops and white clams that were just caught that morning, plus sashimi ㅎㅎ (The kitchen utensils are perfectly equipped, which made it so convenient!) There are so many healing books in the house that I was amazed! It was exactly what I needed—a place to rest and organize my thoughts. ㅠㅠ With the reading stand, nostalgic vintage cassettes, turntable, and everything else perfectly set up, this was the best accommodation for me! You can see the sunrise beautifully from the terrace, so if you're staying here, definitely watch the sunrise! 🌅 I want to come back again, and honestly, I want to live in Mukho ㅎㅎㅎ💖”

Frequently Asked Questions

What is LiveAnywhere?

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 show a deposit. What is it, and do I get it back?

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.

Is there a good Airbnb alternative for a stay of a week or longer in Gangwon?

Looking for an Airbnb alternative in Gangwon? LiveAnywhere is built specifically for stays of a week or longer, with pricing that reflects that. It's often cheaper than booking the same length of stay night by night on a typical platform. Utilities are included, cleaning fees don't repeat, and every host is verified.

Can foreigners rent an apartment in Gangwon without a Korean guarantor?

Yes, no Korean guarantor is needed to book in Gangwon. LiveAnywhere is designed specifically to let foreign renters complete bookings online without that requirement.
