What defines Makhinjauri

Close to the city, but quieter.

Makhinjauri combines sea views with a short drive to Batumi.

  1. Sea views on the slope

    Many buildings stand on the hillside. Higher floors often have wide views over the sea.

  2. Close to Batumi

    The centre is quick to reach. Shops, doctors and restaurants are not far.

  3. Quiet and green

    Less densely built than central Batumi. Good for owner-occupiers and longer stays.

  4. Check the beach

    Not every project is right on the beach. Check the walk to the sea and whether a road or railway lies in between.
