“It's a great place with a view of the ocean, and a 5-minute walk to Cheongchoho shopping district and Sokcho Beach!! We were a weekend couple who went back and forth to Goseong for work and only went home on weekends. This time, thanks to the good accommodation and the kind host through Live, we had a great 2-week stay. The kids are young, but they got to see the ocean and play around and became close. It's April, and maybe because it's Yeongdong, the weather is generally warm, so it's the first time they've played in the sand, and the kids who became close to the ocean say hello to the ocean that they can see from the living room window every morningㅎ My wife also graduated from college in Sokcho, and this time, we went to see the cherry blossoms in Sokcho for the first time in a long time, and they said they were happy and happy to see the kids enjoying it. Anyway, thank you for lending us a great accommodation so that we could have precious memories and time that we can't usually enjoy. (I want to add a picture, but I don't know how, so it's a shame)”

“It's exactly as shown in the photos. Sokcho Beach is just a 10-minute walk away, and the complex is quiet with recycling available anytime, so I was able to live comfortably! The host is kind and responds quickly, so any questions were resolved immediately. It would be nice if more photos were added, but the views from the bedroom and living room are absolutely beautiful. The space is quite spacious and nice, so it seems like multiple people could stay together. And since all living essentials and necessities are provided, you really only need to bring yourself!

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 Sokcho?
If you're looking for an Airbnb alternative in Sokcho, LiveAnywhere is built for stays of a week or longer. Nightly rates are set for extended stays, so the same apartment often costs noticeably less than booking week by week on a nightly platform. There are no repeated cleaning fees, utilities are included, and every host is verified and legally operating.
