Paradise City is a work of art. Opened in April 2017, the South Korean integrated resort puts an art- and design-focused lens throughout the vast grounds
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Set on Yeongjong Island moments from Incheon International Airport, the expansive enclave serves as a self-contained gateway before heading into Seoul.
The rooms
High ceilings and deep-soaking tubs define the main guest rooms, while boutique suites feature monochromatic schemes with dark marble bathrooms.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
Skylit lagoons, glowing water slides, and runway-facing infinity pools spread across the multi-level CIMER Aqua Spa.
The saunas
The Korean bathhouse holds curved stone relaxation rooms, outdoor footbaths, and saunas lined with Himalayan salt and cypress wood.
At the table
La Scala serves seasonal Milanese tasting menus, and Rubik hosts live jazz alongside flights of Suntory whisky.
How it began
The destination evolved from the Chun family's decades-long private art collection, creating a massive showcase for prominent Korean and international creatives.
