Recently, BLACKPINK's Jennie uploaded photos of herself

enjoying a hot spring on Instagram,

which became quite a hot topic.

Many naturally assumed it was a Japanese ryokan or an overseas destination,

but it turned out to be **Suanbo (수안보), Chungju (충주)**,

making it even more of a sensation!

As the weather slowly turns colder,

more and more people are thinking about a hot spring trip.

From the hot spring accommodation Jennie visited in Chungju,

where you can enjoy a cozy spa and hot springs with friends and family,

I'll introduce them all to you!💘

🍃 Jennie's Hot Spring Accommodation: "Youonejae"

02 Private Hot Spring Recommendation 1: Onyoun

Besides Jennie's hot spring accommodation, Youonejae,

there are quite a few private spa resorts worth visiting in Korea.

I'll introduce a few of them here.

The first is **Onyoun Private Villa (온연 프라이빗 빌라)**,

located in Yesan (예산), South Chungcheong Province (충남).

It operates as a total of five independent villas,

and each room's terrace has a private open-air hot spring bath.

Unlike typical pool villas, Onyoun is a private hot spring accommodation that

**uses natural hot spring water**.

The hot spring water is from Deoksan Hot Spring (덕산온천),

using its natural hot spring water,

so for those who want to truly enjoy a hot spring bath,

this accommodation would be a perfect fit, wouldn't it?

Each room has a completely separate

private terrace,

allowing you to enjoy the hot spring and relax.

The standard occupancy is 2 people, with a maximum of 3,

making it especially recommended for couple trips 💓

03 Private Hot Spring Recommendation 2: Tivolivil (티볼리빌)

The second is Tivolivil Spa & Pool Villa (티볼리빌 스파앤풀빌라),

located in Pocheon (포천), Gyeonggi Province (경기).

It's a nature-friendly pool villa where you can relax while gazing at the forest.

Depending on the room type, it features individual swimming pools or

water play facilities like jet spas,

making it great for spending time within the accommodation.

It's especially recommended for couples or family travelers

who want to enjoy a private spa and relax at leisure.

There are also pet-friendly rooms, and

the additional facilities like the communal infinity pool and camping areas are well-equipped,

so it would be great to enjoy them together.

Prices start from around ₩100,000 (~$75),

so if you're looking for a cost-effective private hot spring hotel,

this is a place I'd recommend.

04 Private Hot Spring Recommendation 3: Floating Whale (플로팅웨일)

Lastly, we have Floating Whale Gapyeong Pool Villa Spa Resort (플로팅웨일 가평 풀빌라 스파 리조트),

located in Gapyeong (가평), Gyeonggi Province.

It's a pool villa accommodation where you can enjoy a private retreat amidst Gapyeong's nature.

They provide warmed pool water at 28-30 degrees Celsius at no extra charge,

which is a great bonus!

Beyond the pool villas, there are various additional facilities like glamping and BBQ,

and what stood out to me was the ball pit that kids are sure to love!

Floating Whale Gapyeong also has a standard occupancy of 4 people,

which is why I'd recommend it as family accommodation.
