In short: New Boulevard is the busiest district of Batumi. According to Galt & Taggart, 4,417 apartments were sold here in the first eight months of 2026, about 40% of all deals in the city. A turnkey new build in the district costs $1,798 per m² on average, well below Old Batumi and the Alley of Heroes. Our catalogue lists 17 projects in the area, with apartments from $37,913. Below: where the district is, what is on sale and who it suits.
Where New Boulevard is
New Boulevard is the name for the southern part of the Batumi seafront and the blocks along it, from the Khimshiashvili area towards the airport. It is a district of new high rises, residential quarters and seaside hotels.
A few landmarks from the descriptions of projects in our catalogue:
- about 10 minutes by car to central Batumi, and 1 to 3 km to the airport depending on the building;
- a seafront promenade, the Lech and Maria Kaczyński Park and the Pearl of Batumi park nearby;
- a yacht club and an aquapark in the ELT quarter by the sea.

What the table shows:
- A low entry point. A studio in a building under construction can be found for $38,000 to $42,000.
- A cheap metre almost always means no finishing. In 9 of the 14 projects the price per metre is $1,000 to $1,300, but most of them are sold in frame condition. Only Status House and Marina Club offer finished apartments in this range.
- Completed buildings cost more. Batumi View, Sunway Suites and The Grandeur cost $1,800 to $2,625 per metre, but you can move in or rent out right away.
Besides apartments, the area has townhouses and villas: Rendez-Vous Batumi by LOYD Development, La Villa by Arpi Development and Polo Villas Signature by Polo Construction. Houses of 148 to 198 m² start at $221,000.
Black, white and green frame explained
New-build apartments in Batumi are sold in different conditions, and the condition strongly affects the final cost:
- black frame: walls and floors with no finishing, everything else is up to the buyer;
- white frame: plaster, screed, utilities connected, windows and an entrance door;
- green frame: white frame plus part of the final finishing; the scope differs by developer, so check the specification in the contract;
- finished or furnished: the apartment is ready to live in or rent out.
When comparing projects, count the full price: the price per metre plus finishing and furniture if they are not included.
Pros and cons of the district
Pros:
- the sea and the promenade are close, many buildings are a few minutes’ walk from the beach;
- new buildings with pools, gyms and closed courtyards;
- a lower price per metre than in Old Batumi and on the Alley of Heroes;
- a wide choice of projects and developer instalment plans;
- the airport is nearby, convenient for frequent flyers.
Cons:
- the district is still being built, so noise and construction sites will remain for several years;
- the Old Town and the historic centre are a drive away;
- dense high-rise development, so neighbouring buildings may block the view;
- if the building is close to the airport, listen for aircraft noise during the viewing;
- many apartments are let by the day, so competition between owners is high in season.
Galt & Taggart notes that daily rents in Batumi have barely moved while purchase prices rise, so the city’s gross rental yield fell to 7.1%. This is past statistics, not a forecast, and the income of a specific apartment depends on the building, the management and the distance to the sea.
Who New Boulevard suits
- Buyers who plan to rent out. A low entry price and plenty of tourists by the sea. Choose a building with a good management company.
- Those who want to live by the sea in a new building. The promenade, parks and complex amenities are close.
- Buyers who want an instalment plan. Most projects in the district are still under construction, and developers let you pay in parts until completion.
If you prefer the historic centre and walks through old streets, look at Old Batumi; for somewhere quieter and greener, Makhinjauri or Gonio. The purchase itself is explained step by step in How to Buy an Apartment in Georgia as a Foreigner.
