Hotel Dengan Pools di Chungcheongnam-do, South Korea

We stayed here only to partake in the Waterpark that is attached to the Hotel. It was okay. Not much else in the area. And one does not need to stay at the hotel to attend Waterpark. Room price was decent, but everything else was very expensive. Not the norm for Korea. A discount was given for pool entry since we were guests of the hotel. We opted for a room with kitchen and glad we did. No microwave in room, but there are three down by the front desk for common use.

The hotel is next to the beach. It is an old building. It is located on the quieter side of Mallipo beach. The hotel has an outdoor pool with a deck and tubes, picnic tables with umbrellas,grills and communal amenities behind the building. The room has a fridge, indoor balcony, TV, wardrobe and AC. It is not far from the lively side of the beach maybe a 5 minutes walk from the hotel. The closes convenience store is about a 5 minutes walk. A few minutes walk to Chollipo beach and the garden there. Arrived later than the expected time but called ahead and the front desk accommodated our late arrival.

We stayed here for two nights and it was amazing! The hosts are incredibly helpful and friendly and made sure we had a good time. The room was super cozy and clean, and we couldn’t have wished for a nicer view. The pool was awesome and we had a very good time there. We were even able to use the barbecue, the host prepared everything nicely for us and we enjoyed a nice dinner at sunset. 10/10, totally recommend!!

The place is great and it's at the right location. The slide pool is really nice, but could have been better if the hours were a lot longer. The beach is just a 3 minute walk and a awesome experience to try out digging for clams. Overall it's a great place and experience.

대천해수욕장 바로 앞애 위치한 리조트라서 위치는 정말 좋았어요~ 1층에 컴포즈커피도 있고, 바로 옆에 베이커리카페도 있어서 편의시설들도 만족스라웠어요^^ 트립에서 예약해서인지 채크인할때 리셉션에서 바로 확인을 못해줘서 조금 아쉬웠고, 객실 자채는 깔끔했는데 화장실 타일 깨진것들이 있고 테라스 쪽은 관리가 안되는것 같아서 조금 아쉽더라구요;; 그래도 루프탑에 수영장도 넓어서 수영하면서 대천해수욕장 뷰도 보이고 가성비 좋았어요!!

I usually don't leave reviews, but... - Arrived at 10:30 AM and saw elementary school boys playing in the pool. I asked if my kids could play since we arrived early, but was told no until check-in, which I understood. - There was no traditional Korean floor mattress (yo) in the room. I was a bit surprised it wasn't a bedded room. There was just a very thin pad to put over the bed/floor and a comforter. When I asked about the yo, they said they don't provide them. - We booked for 6 people but only had 2 towels. When I asked for about 8 more, they said they always run out of towels and couldn't give us many. - The next morning, when we wanted to swim, we were told swimming wasn't allowed in the morning. When I asked why the kids from yesterday were allowed, they said those were repeat guests. So, my companions came from Japan to visit, and after we explained, they allowed us to swim only between 10 AM and 11 AM. About 20 minutes into our swim, the same elementary school kids from yesterday arrived, sweating profusely after soccer practice. They just stripped off their clothes and jumped into the pool without showering. There was also a soccer representative and a coach nearby, and they just told the kids to play in the pool, and no one told them to shower first. - I was so shocked that I asked, ”They're so sweaty, shouldn't they shower before getting in?” Only then did they roughly rinse their feet at the foot-washing station and enter the pool. There were about 10 kids like that. I told my kids to get out. We really only slept there... If we had cooked food, there would probably have been even more incidents.

The owner was very kind. They explained everything well and even shared vegetables from their garden, which I really appreciated. The view is great, and the garden is full of flowers. Although I didn't get to use it, the pool with the ocean-view slide also looks wonderful.

I've always wanted to go, but I've always failed to secure a reservation, so I made a reservation quickly this time. I was surprised by how many people there were than I expected. It was difficult to reserve a room for multiple nights, but it was convenient.

Our family had a relaxing and comfortable stay at the pool. The staff member was very friendly and provided excellent guidance. Being right by the beach made it convenient for my parents to take walks.

I visited with friends, and it was great to be able to enjoy some private time. The ocean view was great, so we could enjoy the scenery while hanging out with friends. The interior design and other features were also nice, so we could relax without having to leave the pension. I especially loved grilling and enjoying the ocean breeze. :)
