Backpacker's Home
About
Backpacker's Home, on Jeju, sits at 24-7 Jungjeong-ro, 특별자치도, Seogwipo-si, Jeju-do, South Korea, in the south of the island. First-time visitors arrive to a hostel where the 342 reviews have built a steady reputation for the basics done well. Most guests use Seogwipo as a base for exploring the coast and the volcanic interior, and the town's bus links connect it to Jeju City and the airport.
Jeju's bus network reaches Seogwipo from Jeju City and the resort areas around Jungmun, so the hostel is reachable without a car. Its 4.4 out of 5 average across those 342 reviews reflects a guesthouse that keeps its standards consistent from season to season. The nearby towns of Hallim, Aewol and Seongsan sit further around the coast and are usually visited as day trips.
The hostel's website, https://blog.naver.com/backpackershome, carries its own booking and contact information for anyone planning a stay.
Korea's four distinct seasons shape any trip here, with hot humid summers and cold, dry winters meaning the shoulder months suit walking best. Public transport on the island relies on buses and taxis rather than trains. Jeju's coastal waters support mackerel, squid and shellfish fisheries, and finless porpoises are sometimes seen offshore.
