Arriving at W181
Located at 2707 Geojebuk-ro, Jangmok-myeon, Geoje-si, W181 Ocean Stay is just an easy hour from Busan, ideal for a weekend trip. As soon as you exit the Gadeok undersea tunnel onto Geogadaegyo bridge, the city stress melts away as ocean views take over. When you arrive at Geoje island it’s just a 5-minute drive to W181 Ocean Stay.
The Cafe: Stunning view
W181’s cafe is hands down one of the best seaside cafe Geoje offers. It has a laid-back vibe with huge windows with stunning view over the bay. Prices are reasonable and Ocean Stay guests get a free drink. Visit before 10 AM for quiet sips or during golden-hour to snap pics by the windows.
Ocean Stay: Pool Villa Comfort
W181 Ocean Stay is a pool villa with charm. The bay-view suites are stylish, with comfy beds, modern decor, and private balconies facing the sea. Each comes with a hot tub at the entrance (book hot water ahead) and a private pool on the bay side. The public pool looks great for Instagram but wasn’t clean during our visit, possibly only maintained in summer. It’s a spacious, private retreat perfect for couples.
Exploring Geoje from W181
W181’s northern location makes it a solid base, though you’ll drive a bit to reach Geoje’s highlights. Maemiseong Fortress, a gem from recent history with a unique story, is just 10 minutes away. Gujora Beach, great for walks or picnics, is 35 minutes out. Wahyeon Dock for ferries to Oedo Island’s gardens is also 35 minutes, while Windy Hill’s open vistas take about an hour.
Why W181 Ocean Stay Stands Out
W181 Ocean Stay in Geoje combines stunning ocean views, cozy pool villa stays, and a cafe with stunning views into one unforgettable spot. It’s one of the best seaside cafe Geoje offers and a prime ocean stay Geoje pick for relaxing or exploring. The northern location means easy access from Busan, with just a bit more driving to southern attractions. Book your stay at W181 Ocean Stay today.
