🏖️ The Quiet Haven of Adjara: Chakvi is a unique blend of eucalyptus groves, expansive pebble beaches, and peaceful surroundings just 15 minutes away from the vibrant center of Batumi. It is the perfect "base" for those who want to live by the sea while maintaining the mobility to explore the Botanical Garden, Petra Fortress, or the highland regions of Adjara.
🌿 The Green Belt of Georgia: The resort is famous for its microclimate, where sea air meets the refreshing scent of eucalyptus. Chakvi is a strategic starting point for the most picturesque locations in the region: from the famous Mtsvane Kontskhi (Green Cape) to the wild beaches of Tsikhisdziri and Mtirala National Park.
🚗 Transport Hub: Chakvi is conveniently located on the main E70 highway connecting Batumi, Kobuleti, and Kutaisi. Having a private car here is the best way to see all of Adjara without being tied to the schedules of marshrutkas or crowded summer buses.
Chakvi is the choice for those who prefer comfort over the city bustle of Batumi. Renting a car through TripBox turns your vacation from a standard "hotel stay" into a full-scale adventure: morning breakfast with a sea view in Chakvi, afternoon walks in the Botanical Garden, and evening dinners in the Adjarian mountains. A private car provides freedom that you cannot buy from taxi drivers, whose prices skyrocket along with the summer heat.

Summer in Chakvi is not just about the beach, but also about active trips into the mountains. For the coastline, any car class will suffice, but for excursions to national parks and mountain waterfalls, choosing an SUV is recommended.
| Season | Conditions | Suitable for | Recommended Car |
|---|---|---|---|
| May – June | Warm 20–25°C, everything in bloom | Hiking, sightseeing | Sedan or Crossover |
| July – August | Hot, peak season | Beach vacation, night trips | Any class (AC is essential) |
| September – October | Velvet season 18–23°C | Gastronomic tours, mountains | Crossover (for mountain trips) |
If you only want to relax on the beach — perhaps not. But Chakvi is located in the center of Adjara. Having a car will allow you to reach the Botanical Garden in 15 minutes, waterfalls in 40 minutes, and Batumi's nightlife in 20 minutes. It is freedom of movement that a taxi cannot provide.
The roads along the coast are excellent. In the mountains (Mtirala, Makhuntseti), the roads are narrow but paved. The main rule is to be attentive to the mountain serpentines and local drivers.
In most cases, no. The insurance of Georgian rental cars does not cover Turkey, and most hosts prohibit crossing the border in a rental vehicle.
Yes, in Chakvi and within a 5-10 km radius (towards Batumi or Kobuleti), there are large network gas stations (SOCAR, Wissol, Gulf). There are no issues with fuel availability in Adjara.
Trusted reviews from real customers who used TripBox services
Absolutely seamless experience from start to finish. Picked up a Toyota in Tbilisi, drove through the mountains to Kazbegi, and returned the car in Batumi. The team was responsive on WhatsApp and the car was in perfect condition. Will definitely use TripBox again on our next trip.
Great value for money. The booking process was simple and the host met us right at the airport. Car was clean and fuel tank was full. Highly recommend!
Best car rental service I've tried in Georgia. Transparent pricing, no hidden fees, and the insurance options were clearly explained. The host even gave us tips on the best scenic routes.
Very professional and friendly. Answered all my questions quickly.
We rented an SUV for a two-week road trip across the Caucasus. The car handled mountain passes like a champ and when we had a minor issue with a tire, the TripBox team arranged a replacement within hours. That kind of support is rare.
Booked last-minute for a weekend in Kutaisi and the process was painless. Host picked us up at the train station with the car and walked us through everything. Five stars.
Clean car, fair price, polite host. What more do you need?
I appreciated how clear the rental agreement was. Everything was in English and well documented. The car was a late model with all modern features. Communication via the app was instant.
Excellent service and a beautiful car. The only tiny hiccup was a 10-minute delay at pickup but the host apologized sincerely and threw in an extra full tank at the end. Honest people, would book again.
Reliable and stress-free. Perfect for family travel.
