01

FIRST VISIT

Old Batumi

Best mix of sights, restaurants and walking.
02

BEACH + PARKS

Old Boulevard

Central shore, 6 May Park and mature green space.
03

QUIET COAST

Gonio or Kvariati

A calmer base south of the city.
01

Old Batumi and Europe Square

Best for first visits, short city breaks, architecture and dining. You can walk to Piazza, the port, Miracle Park and much of the central Boulevard. Expect more evening activity and less convenient parking.

02

Old Boulevard and 6 May Park

A strong all-round choice for couples and families. The central beach, mature parkland, Dolphinarium and city centre remain close. International full-service hotels cluster along Rustaveli Avenue.

03

New Boulevard

Best for newer towers, sea views, apartment-style space and long walks by the water. The area is less atmospheric than Old Batumi and often requires transport for evening trips to the historic centre.

04

Gonio and Kvariati

Choose the southern coast for a quieter beach-led stay and a backdrop of green hills. These areas suit slow holidays more than daily city sightseeing. Confirm transport, restaurants and beach access around the exact property.

05

Makhinjauri and Green Cape

North of Batumi, these areas suit visitors drawn to greenery and the Botanical Garden. The official Ajara tourism guide places Makhinjauri about 7 kilometres and Green Cape about 9 kilometres from Batumi.
