Additional Amenities
The venue distinguishes itself by integrating its wellness services with a comprehensive on-site food service. The menu receives significant praise from guests, with highlights including Yukgaejang (spicy beef brisket stew), sushi such as the salmon roll, and the signature Island fries topped with kimchi, bulgogi, and sauces. Shaved ice is also noted as a great option. Guests appreciate the convenience of ordering food online and having it brought directly to their table, as well as the availability of a to-go option. The pricing is considered fair, especially given the convenience of not having to leave the spa. The policy of no expected tipping, as guests bus their own tables, is also viewed favorably. Some guests note that soup-type dishes can contain a lot of MSG, while rice dishes are perceived as slightly better in this regard.
