Batumi is Georgia's tourism engine on the Black Sea — beach promenade, casinos, hotels and a skyline that grows every year. For investors that means short letting cycles, high occupancy in season and the lowest entry point among the major Georgian markets.

We broker sea-view apartments in new-build projects on the New Boulevard, in Gonio and in the centre — many with a down payment and developer instalment plan. Furnishing, management and short-term letting can be arranged with us.

Sea views from $50,000

Entry in Batumi sits well below Tbilisi. Even compact units with a Black Sea view can be let to tourists.

Season-driven yield

Short-term letting in the summer season carries most of the annual return. We calculate with conservative occupancy, not best-case numbers.

03

Gonio & New Boulevard

A quiet stretch of coast versus the urban promenade: two very different profiles for own use and for letting.

Active new build projects in our market overview

Batumi grows along the coast: the closer to the sea and the boulevard, the higher both price and short-term demand. Further inland the price per sqm drops while dependence on season and management rises.
