I've visited Jeju Island in South Korea for about 3x already. First was during my 1st ever solo trip, it was early winter and I didn't have concrete plans so going around was a bit of a challenge. I rented a taxi, and went around their variety of museums in a day. The second visit, I was a bit prepared but didn't expect a snowstorm in the southside of this country. The bus from Incheon Airport struggled, and I was freezing while visiting nature sites after realizing from my 1st trip that Jeju is about exploring the outdoors. I think I've seen the most snow during this trip!  |
| In 2016, I went to Jeju for my first solo trip. The taxi driver recommended I visit their famous green tea farms. |
Third was a prize from a contest, and I brought along my sister. We hiked multiple times with our group tour, and picked Jeju tangerines as part of the pre-set itinerary. It might seem like I've had enough of this island, but I am still looking forward to returning. With the new partnership between Airbnb and K-beauty mega brand Innisfree, I wish I am in South Korea right now!
For one night only, two lucky guests will have the opportunity to experience a restorative, back-to-nature overnight stay on some of the island’s major green tea farms, available on Airbnb for the first time!
As part of this overnight stay, Innisfree is opening the doors to the Dolsongyi and Seogwang tea farms, which are the source for its green tea products, and its retail space and cafe, Jejuhouse.
On June 28 at 10:00 AM KST (Korea Standard Time), residents of Korea will be able to book a magical overnight stay on the green tea farm, available here on a first come, first served basis.
The stay will take place from August 6 to 7, and can accommodate a maximum of two guests. The booking fee for the stay is approximately US$10 to ensure a smooth booking process on the platform, and the entire amount will be refunded to guests in cash during the stay.
WHAT TO EXPECT
- Guests will enjoy a curated menu of farm-forward experiences including learning about the fine art of tea in a tea ceremony and getting back to nature by picking fresh tea leaves with the skincare company’s leading research and development expert.
- Local Airbnb Experiences Hosts will guide guests in a rejuvenating outdoor yoga class, a private photoshoot in the middle of the tea fields with a professional photographer and a creative botanical art class.
- Guests will be served an intimate series of meals especially curated by Jejuhouse’s chef, which incorporate some of the island’s local produce.
- Guests will stay overnight in an atmospheric camping van overlooking green tea fields; an indoor-outdoor feel will be reinforced by a lounge area set up right outside the camping car, a perfect nook in which to enjoy a peaceful moment gazing at the stars or listening to the sounds of nature after an eventful day.
Airbnb’s campaign with Innisfree is the latest in a series of initiatives that brings the world’s most iconic, unexpected and unique spaces onto the platform for a truly once-in-a-lifetime experience for guests.
Previous campaigns have taken place at The Louvre museum in Paris and at a glamorous beach house in Malibu styled in the spirit of Barbie.
Interested guests should note that house rules are in strict adherence with Covid-19 guidelines, and those who request a reservation should currently live in Korea to minimize risk. Guests can rest easy knowing that the home will be cleaned in accordance with the Airbnb enhanced cleaning protocol.
