JW Marriott has announced the opening of JW Marriott Jeju Resort & Spa in Seogwipo, Jeju. Designed by Bill Bensley, the resort offers 197 guestrooms, including 28 suites, all appointed in natural wood and warm tones. Select rooms have large marble bathtubs for two.

We are delighted to introduce the JW Marriott brand to Jeju island, one of South Korea's most beautiful holiday destinations with its unique culture, history and traditions, as well as its spectacular UNESCO World heritage-listed natural attractions,' said Bruce Rohr, Vice President and Global Brand Leader, JW Marriott. 'JW Marriott Jeju Resort & Spa is an architectural masterpiece that exists in harmonious balance with its natural surroundings, and we are confident that this new opening will set a new benchmark for luxury resort offerings in the country.

The resort's remarkable design is by luxury hotel designer Bill Bensley, who took inspiration from the raw natural beauty of Jeju and its farming and fishing traditions to bring the JW Marriott brand philosophy to life. The landscaping is a harmonious fusion of nature and architecture, representing a Jeju island farm complete with low lava stone walls, cabbage fields, and mustard flowers that bloom in springtime in a sea of yellow, a lucky color in Korea.

Inspired by the principles of mindfulness, JW Marriott Jeju Resort & Spa offers its signature Spa by JW with sauna facilities, and four indoor and outdoor swimming pools fed by the island's volcanic springs.

Set within the contours of the terraced site, this property is designed to work with the land – its shapes and contours, arid climate, brilliant light, rough textures, sloping site, and magnificent views – to create a rare experience that is truly “of the place.” The master plan and design are edited to evoke a curated experience that provides unencumbered views from every single vantage point. This is the driving force behind the design and the defining character of this destination.
