Buying an apartment in the Grand Life Batumi residential complex means acquiring a room in the only five-star luxury city-hotel in the city’s geographic center, operating under the WorldHotels brand of the international BWH Hotels network. The project solves the task of capital preservation through the format of hotel real estate with professional management, where the investor receives rental income without operational involvement, and the owner for living enjoys premium hotel-level service within walking distance from the sea and business infrastructure.
About the Residential Complex
Grand Life is a club-format complex consisting of two eight-story buildings, combining 86 hotel rooms and 69 private residences. The developer European Village is among the top ten brands in Georgia according to Forbes and specializes in international-level resort real estate. The project is positioned as an investment product in the elite segment: monolithic-frame construction technology, 30-centimeter thick ceramic walls, sound insulation, and Rehau panoramic glazing meet five-star hotel standards. The completion of both buildings is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2027, with construction starting in autumn 2024. The uniqueness of the complex lies in combining a concept inspired by Georgian wine culture with BWH Hotels' global booking system, covering over 64 million loyal network clients.
Location and Area Advantages
The complex is located at 47, Angisis 1st Lane, in the Airport district, which is effectively Batumi’s new business and tourist center. The distance to the Black Sea is 400 meters — a seven-minute walk. It takes eight minutes by transport to reach Batumi International Airport, which is crucial for tourists forming the main rental flow. Within a five-minute radius, there are the Metro City shopping center, cafes, restaurants, pharmacies, and supermarkets, while Lech and Maria Kaczyński Park is a ten-minute walk away.
The Airport district is actively being developed with hotel and commercial properties, creating stable demand for quality real estate. Unlike the historic center with limited supply and high prices, this zone offers a balance of transport accessibility, proximity to the sea, and modern infrastructure, ensuring the liquidity of properties upon resale.
Complex Infrastructure
The infrastructure is designed on the principle of a full-fledged five-star hotel, eliminating the need to leave the premises for most daily needs:
- Heated swimming pool
- Wellness center with wine therapy, sauna, and massage rooms
- Fitness center with functional training and EMS programs
- FUSION restaurant featuring authentic Georgian cuisine
- Coworking space with panoramic views
- Rooftop winter garden
- Children’s center and playground
- Wine tasting rooms
- Underground parking
- 24/7 security, CCTV, and concierge service
The property is managed by Aimbridge Hospitality, a company with 65 years of experience in the international market, guaranteeing professional hotel management and global marketing.
Layouts and Prices
The room stock includes six formats with 2.95-meter ceilings and turnkey finishing. Studios ranging from 30 to 36 square meters are available from $154,493, two-bedroom Deluxe and City House apartments from 62 to 79 meters start from $467,934, and three-bedroom Suite and City House Suite from 112 to 116 meters start from. The price per square meter starts from $4,706.
The developer offers an interest-free installment plan with a 30 percent down payment for up to 42 months. Studios and two-bedroom formats are considered the most liquid for rental, being optimal for couples and small families who make up the core of Batumi’s tourist flow. Spacious residences with fireplaces and access to private terraces are in demand among buyers considering the property for seasonal living.
Investment Appeal
Rental demand is formed by three factors: the international WorldHotels brand, providing guest flow through the global booking system; the location in central Batumi near the airport and business infrastructure; and professional management by Aimbridge Hospitality. The main tenants are affluent tourists from the Persian Gulf, Europe, and Israel, as well as business travelers visiting the region for business purposes.
The investment horizon for this format ranges from three to five years: during this period, the property goes through the stage of establishing hotel operations, and the property value increases as the complex is commissioned and tourist flow grows. The developer includes a buyback option in the contract, providing additional capital protection. Owners also gain access to the International Travel Club program, allowing them to spend seven days annually in WorldHotels network hotels worldwide from the moment of purchase.

Who Is This Complex Suitable For
For investors seeking passive income from hotel real estate with professional management and capital protection through the buyback program. For living, for those who appreciate five-star hotel service in everyday life and want to reside in central Batumi within walking distance from the sea. For relocation, for families considering Georgia as a second residence with the possibility of earning rental income during periods of absence. For passive income, for buyers for whom property liquidity, ensured by an international brand and professional management company, is a priority.
Grand Life represents a format of hotel real estate where the investment logic is based on the scarcity of luxury segment supply in central Batumi and the operational model of an international hotel operator. The project is suitable for buyers whose priorities are capital preservation, professional management without personal involvement, and access to a global network of privileges, rather than independently renting out the property.
