Could anyone point me to a good jjimjilbang in Busan near Gwangalli or Heundae beaches?

We decided to go to Busan this weekend but every hostel/pensionhouse/etc we could find online are booked solid. Or if you know of any other accommodation alternatives, please post those as well. Thanks.

Just go to any one of a zillion love motels in Busan. You can't really prebook them, just turn up on the day (in early afternoon) and ask for a room.

stayed at VESTA in busan just this last weekend. 4 minute taxi ride/12 minute walk from haeundae... typical jjimjilbang--- but nice view, and has pools outside, so you can stand naked overlooking the beach.

we showed up at 2am and the lady tried to turn us away on the grounds of it being packed... we pushed on, said we didnt mind. it was PACKED... slept wedged between a wall and an arcade machine up on the fifth floor. but for 8,000 won and a good scrub, i didnt mind.

Don't be cheap, spend an extra $20, and get a room at a hotel. Heaps around Hauendae beach.

Isn't it "Vespa"? Gotta love those picture window views of the bay. Stayed at th Paradise hotel a few times and loved their outdoor spa on the deck overlooking the ocean as well.
