Wyndham Grand Residences Gonio Family Club: 2026 Guide

Wyndham Grand Residences Gonio Family Club is the name this site uses for the Family Club buildings of the Wyndham Grand Batumi Gonio complex in Gonio, a seaside settlement about 11 km south of central Batumi in Adjara, Georgia. The developer, European Village LLC, sells the units as hotel units under the Wyndham Grand brand, and trade press names Aimbridge Hospitality as the operator. The developer’s own pages call the building “Wyndham Grand Batumi Gonio. Family Club”.

This guide sets out what the developer publishes about Wyndham Grand Residences Gonio Family Club, what property portals quote, where the sources disagree and what a buyer can ask for in writing. Facts, prices and legal points are stated as of 5 November 2026. Currency conversions use the National Bank of Georgia official rates for that date, USD 1 = GEL 2.5958 and EUR 1 = GEL 2.9198, which gives a EUR/USD cross of about 1.1248 (calculated).

Overview of Wyndham Grand Residences Gonio Family Club

The developer’s Family Club page, read on 5 November 2026, describes a five-star, club-style hotel for family stays with plans from 37.3 m2, five floors and designer finishes. It lists a swimming pool, a restaurant, a children’s playground and “+97 infrastructure facilities” shared with the wider complex. It prints a rate “from EUR 9,080” per m2 with a payment plan of 42 months and an initial payment of 30%, and it publishes no price list by unit.

The building has two blocks. The developer’s monthly construction reports describe Block A and Block B, and its co-ownership page calls Family Club a complex of two buildings. The portal batumi.estate also lists two buildings and five floors, and gives the address as Svimon Kananeli street 11g, Gonio-Kvariati, with a map pin at 41.563988 N, 41.571407 E.

On status, the latest Family Club report on the developer’s news page is for December 2025 and was published on 22 January 2026. It describes roof membrane, terrace waterproofing, balcony tiling and facade work in Block A, and facade and balcony work in Block B. None of the sources read for this guide describes the Family Club blocks as completed, and the developer’s current page shows no delivery date. Section 5 sets out how the dates differ by source.

The listing card on this page shows a developer rate from EUR 9,080 per m2 (developer’s Family Club page, 5 November 2026) and a size from 37.3 m2 (the developer’s plan area of the Junior Suite). Section 3 lists the developer’s published rate by date.

Unit types and sizes: what is published

The developer names four layouts for Family Club and prints a total area for each. A Junior Suite is described as a room with one bed or two single beds, a bathroom and a balcony.

A Deluxe Suite has a separate bedroom and living room and is described as sleeping up to four guests. A Family Suite has two bedrooms and a living room and is described as sleeping up to six. A Penthouse is a two-floor unit with two bedrooms, a living room and a large terrace on the second floor.

The areas on the developer’s page are plan areas. The portal shows individual units, and its figures differ from the plan areas: the smallest unit it lists is 52.5 m2, not 37.3 m2. The July 2024 trade report on the Aimbridge appointment describes Family Club as offering studios, apartments and duplexes, which is a different vocabulary from the four layout names above.

Area definitions matter in a building of balconied suites. The portal’s page for unit 407, a 93.8 m2 hotel room on the fourth floor, separates a living area of 60.1 m2 from a balcony area of 33.7 m2 inside the 93.8 m2 total. A total that includes balconies and terraces cannot be compared with a net internal area, so a price per m2 depends on which area it is divided by. The developer’s page does not say how its “total area” is measured.

The checklist below lists what a buyer can request in writing for the specific unit before a deposit is paid.

• The unit number, block, floor and layout name, with a dimensioned floor plan for that unit
• Net internal area, balcony and terrace area, and the total area used in the price, each stated separately
• Whether the unit is registered as a hotel unit, an apartment or another type of immovable property, and under which cadastral code
• What the price includes: finishing level, fixed furniture, appliances, parking and storage
• The count of units by layout in Block A and Block B, and how many are sold
• The list of facilities that the unit gives access to, and any limits on use by owners
• The unit’s position in the building (floor, orientation, view) as stated in the contract

Prices quoted for Wyndham Grand Residences Gonio Family Club

The developer publishes a rate per m2 for Wyndham Grand Residences Gonio Family Club and no total price for any unit. The rate has changed in step with time and, between December 2025 and April 2026, in currency. The table lists the rates printed on the developer’s Family Club page in archived captures of the page, with the capture date, and the value of the 37.3 m2 plan (the smallest published) at each rate, calculated by multiplying the rate by 37.3.

The capture of 28 March 2025 prints USD 5,360 per m2, and 37.3 m2 multiplied by USD 5,360 is USD 199,928 (calculated). That is a calculated entry value from a dated rate, not a price list, and the rate has been revised several times since.

The page of 5 November 2026 prints EUR 9,080 per m2, which is 61% above the EUR 5,653 of 10 April 2026 (calculated). The developer’s page does not say whether the basis of the rate changed.

The portal offers a lead. On unit 407, which is listed as a 93.8 m2 hotel room in turnkey condition, it shows a price of 851,740 and a second price of 600,741 labelled “with premium finishing”. Dividing gives 9,080.38 and 6,404.49 per m2 (calculated). The first figure equals the developer’s current rate, and the second equals the portal’s project-level “from” rate of 6,404 per m2.

That unit page prints the same 851,740 with a euro sign in its heading and a dollar sign in its table, so the currency of unit-level portal figures is not clear from the page itself. The project-level range on the same portal is printed in euros. The table below puts the current figures side by side and converts them at the National Bank of Georgia rates of 5 November 2026.

The aggregator row shows why undated figures are kept apart: the page is a Q1 2025 listing that prints a “starting price” of $295,964 for 37.3 m2 (about $7,935 per m2, calculated), a 30% initial payment of $88,789 and a note that prices change constantly.

Portal totals for available units run well above the 37.3 m2 value, and the smallest unit it lists is 52.5 m2. A sold 48.9 m2 hotel room on the portal, listed in April 2024 at 217,857, works out at 4,455 per m2 (calculated), close to the USD 4,485 that the developer printed on 27 May 2024; the currency of that portal figure is not clear from the page.

No official statistic fills the gap. The National Statistics Office’s Residential Property Price Index for the second quarter of 2026 (published 23 July 2026) shows an annual rise of 4.9% but covers new residential property in Tbilisi only, so it says nothing about Gonio. For Batumi averages, the guide on Batumi apartment prices per square metre reports Galt & Taggart figures.

The payment plan is also stated in more than one way. The Family Club page says 42 months with a 30% initial payment. The developer’s investing page states a 30% down payment and a 0% installment plan of up to 60 months for the complex as a whole. Which term applies to a given unit is a contract matter.

Location: Gonio-Kvariati, south of Batumi

Gonio is a settlement south of Batumi in the Gonio-Kvariati district of the city, on the left side of the Chorokhi river, and is described by Wikipedia as a Black Sea resort. The Roman fortress of Gonio-Apsaros lies 15 km south of Batumi at the mouth of the Chorokhi and 4 km north of the Turkish border, according to the same reference. Its oldest written mention is by Pliny the Elder in the first century AD, and the site was a fortified Roman city by the second century AD.

The Family Club blocks stand on a slope. The July 2024 report on the Aimbridge agreement says the complex’s residences sit within 900 m of one another, extending from the coastline up the hillside, and a 2023 trade article describes the hotel as set on a hill overlooking the Gonio-Kvariati coast.

The portal gives a distance to the sea of 350 m for Family Club and 250 m for the Aqua building, and an undated aggregator page gives “2 minutes”. These are distances stated by sellers, and no source read for this guide publishes a surveyed shoreline distance.

The table gives straight-line distances calculated from the portal’s map pin, using coordinates published on Wikipedia for each place, and road distances and times from the OSRM routing service, which models free-flowing traffic. Road figures are indicative and will be longer at peak times or at the border.

The developer’s home page states 5 minutes to the Turkish border and 7 minutes to the airport, and the undated aggregator page gives 14 minutes to the airport. The routing figures above are 10 minutes to Sarpi and 14 minutes to the airport, so they are higher than the developer’s figures. The differences come from the point of departure, the road taken and traffic assumptions, so any of these times should be treated as a rough guide and checked on the day.

The Batumi airport is Alexander Kartveli Batumi International Airport, and the border village of Sarpi is the settlement on the Black Sea coast at the frontier with Turkey. The same aggregator page, undated and on a Q1 2025 delivery basis, lists a supermarket at 1 minute, and a hospital, school and shopping centre at 27 to 29 minutes. Those times describe the page’s own assumptions and are not verified here.

The developer states that the complex has more than 100 facilities on 27,115 m2 and says the infrastructure is intended to support year-round occupancy. That is a statement of intent, not occupancy data, and the Family Club page lists only a pool, a restaurant and a playground as its own facilities. A buyer can ask which of the complex’s restaurants, spas and pools are open to Family Club owners, from what date and on what terms, and whether any are charged separately.

The Family Club page lists the facilities of the whole complex by category, and the list is not specific to the Family Club building. It names two all-inclusive restaurants and three a la carte restaurants, a tasting room, wine and chacha houses, four outdoor pools, two indoor pools and a halal indoor pool, two spa complexes, two fitness centres, four children’s playgrounds, a kids club with animators, a cinema hall, bowling, a library, a conference hall, four meeting rooms and a coworking space.

Which of these are built and open to Family Club owners is a question for the seller.

For wider context on the city, the pages on this site for Batumi and Georgia collect the listings, and the guide to living in Georgia as a foreigner covers costs, healthcare and getting around. The Gonio coast is a beach strip rather than a town centre, which is why access by road matters when comparing it with central Batumi.

Two blocks, hotel units and a branded operation: how to read the project

Family Club is one of five projects that the developer lists under the Wyndham Grand Batumi Gonio name: Aqua, Family Club, Riviera, Villas and Sky Castle. Family Club has two blocks of five floors. Three separate organisations appear in the material, and they do different things. The developer builds and sells. Wyndham Hotels & Resorts licenses the Wyndham Grand brand. Aimbridge Hospitality is named as the manager. The table shows what each publishes.

The sale format needs the closest reading. The developer calls the units “hotel real estate” and “hotel rooms”, the portal files them under “hotel rooms” and “penthouses”, and the developer’s co-ownership page offers a share of a hotel room as an alternative to a whole unit. The legal form of what a buyer receives, whether a separate registered immovable with its own cadastral code, a registered share, or another right, is set by the contract and the Public Registry entry, not by the marketing name.

The developer’s pages advertise a fixed-income option, a buy-back option and a vacation-exchange programme for owners. Their terms are not published on the pages read, so they are not described or evaluated here. For a buyer, each is a clause: who pays, how it is calculated, for how long, what happens if the operator changes, and what backs the promise. Those questions belong in the draft contract and are answered by the contract’s own wording.

The delivery date has moved with time, as the table shows. A hotel-unit project also has two completion states that are easy to confuse: the structure can be finished and registered while the branded operation, with its front desk, housekeeping and booking system, starts later. The ordered checklist below separates the two.

The December 2025 report is the most recent construction document found. Its block-by-block lists show roof membrane work, upper waterproofing and porcelain tile on the fifth-floor terraces, balcony tiling on floors 1 to 4, facade plastering, clinker tile cladding and facade lighting cables in Block A. Block B shows window frames ordered and partly delivered, balcony screed and facade work. Reading these lists, a buyer sees an exterior-finishing stage. Interior fit-out, lifts, fire systems and commissioning are not covered in the report.

The ordered checklist below sets out the questions that connect the dates, the format and the operation.

1. Ask for the permit and commissioning stage of Block A and Block B separately, with the date of each stage and the document that proves it.
2. Ask for the draft sale contract and read the delivery clause, the penalty for delay, and what happens to instalments paid if the date is missed.
3. Ask what is registered in the Public Registry for the unit: the right, the cadastral code, the area and the purpose of use.
4. Ask whether the hotel management agreement for Family Club is signed and in force, and who the contracting parties are.
5. Ask for the owner’s obligations under the operator arrangement: compulsory or optional participation, owner-use days and restrictions on letting independently.
6. Ask for the service charge, how it is calculated, who invoices it and which facilities it covers.
7. Ask for the terms of any fixed-income or buy-back clause in full wording, including who stands behind it.
8. Ask for the current list of facilities that are open and those still under construction.

Buying property in Georgia in brief

Georgia allows foreigners to own non-agricultural property. Article 32 of the Law on the Legal Status of Aliens and Stateless Persons says aliens may own, inherit or bequeath any property under the legislation of Georgia, and the Organic Law on Agricultural Land Ownership limits who may hold agricultural land. A hotel unit in a built or under-construction building is not agricultural land.

The sibling guides on this site cover the legal steps in detail: can foreigners buy property in Georgia, how to buy property in Georgia and the legal tips before signing.

For a unit in a building that is still being completed, the sequence follows the contract. The developer’s own investing page lists an online demonstration or site visit, a booking and preliminary contract, a first instalment of 30% or more, and registration with the Ministry of Justice, and says the buyer need not be present in person. Whether registration in a building not yet commissioned is possible, and on what basis, is a matter for the contract and the Public Registry.

The registration fees in step 5 are the fee-table amounts for registering a change of a right to immovable property and are not stated by the table to depend on the buyer. At the NBG rate of 5 November 2026, GEL 150 is about USD 58 and GEL 350 about USD 135 (calculated). Notary and lawyer fees are separate and depend on the provider. Financing is covered in the guide on mortgages in Georgia for foreigners, and the off-plan process in off-plan property in Batumi.

Residence permit and taxes

Georgia issues a short-term residence permit to an alien who holds title to non-agricultural immovable property with a market value exceeding USD 150,000 equivalent in GEL, and to the spouse and children. That wording appears on the Public Service Development Agency page read on 5 November 2026 and in Article 15(j) of the Law on the Legal Status of Aliens. The guide to the residence permit in Georgia states that the threshold rose from USD 100,000 to USD 150,000 on 1 March 2026.

The value that counts is a market value set by a certified assessor of an accredited body, not the contract price. USD 150,000 equals GEL 389,370 at the NBG rate of 5 November 2026 (calculated).

The agency’s fee table for the permit shows GEL 300 at 30 calendar days, GEL 450 at 20 days and GEL 600 at 10 days. Owning a unit does not by itself decide a permit: the permit is a separate application, and whether a particular hotel unit qualifies depends on what is registered and what the assessor finds.

The tax rules are summarised from the PwC summary, which is a secondary source and pre-dates the amendments reported in the guide on property tax in Georgia. The Revenue Service page lists the declaration and payment dates and a calculator, but the rate values are not printed on the page read.

Rules differ by person, and tax on income from letting through an operator depends on how the arrangement is set up in the contract. The note on short lets in the Batumi short-term rental guide covers the registration side.

Risks, title and due diligence

The risks below come from the way the project is sold and documented, not from any finding about a named company. Each can be reduced by a document the seller can supply. The table lists the issue, why it arises and the check that settles it.

Two features of the sources deserve a second look. First, the figures a buyer meets come in three kinds: a developer rate per m2, portal totals for named units and aggregator totals without a date. They are not interchangeable, and a buyer comparing two quotes should confirm the currency, the area used and the date of each. Second, the labels “hotel room”, “suite” and “penthouse” describe marketing categories, and the type of right in the contract may use different words.

For title, the Public Registry extract is the central document. It shows the registered owner, the land category and purpose of use, and any pledges, leases or other restrictions. For a building still under construction, the extract for the plot is where a buyer starts, and the unit’s own entry follows once the building is commissioned.

Where the unit is later to be rented through an operator, the contract should say who holds the right to let, who receives the income and who pays the running costs in the months when the unit is empty. The Registry publishes service centre details and sample documents, and the guide on foreign ownership in Georgia describes the checks in order.

How Family Club compares with the other Wyndham Grand Batumi Gonio projects

The developer lists five projects under the complex name. The table gives each project’s rate and smallest plan area as printed on the developer’s pages on 5 November 2026, converted at the National Bank of Georgia rate of that date, with the matching page on this site where one exists. All rates in the table are the developer’s own, as printed on the same date.

On the developer’s current rates, Family Club is 4.2% below Aqua per m2 (EUR 9,080 against EUR 9,478), 40% above Riviera and 56% above Villas (all calculated). Aqua has the smallest plan, at 31.2 m2, and a 20-floor tower; Family Club has the second smallest, in a five-floor building. The Aqua entry value follows the same arithmetic as Family Club: 31.2 m2 at EUR 9,478 is EUR 295,714 (calculated), which sits close to the EUR 295,721 that batumi.estate shows as the lowest Aqua price.

The projects differ in format as well as price. Aqua is a tower with sanatorium-type facilities in the developer’s description, Riviera is described as a townhouse hotel, Villas are two-storey villas, and Sky Castle is a newer project. Differences in size, floors and facilities explain part of the per-m2 spread, and the sources read do not say which part. The rate comparison does not show which building is better value; it shows only how the developer’s own rates sit against each other on one date.

European Village, Wyndham and Aimbridge

European Village LLC is the Georgian company named as developer in the 2022 to 2024 press and on the project site. An article of 19 July 2022 in Interpressnews, marked as an advertisement, reported a preliminary agreement between the company and Wyndham Hotels & Resorts for a large-scale project in Gonio-Kvariati.

Trade reports of 13 September 2023 described the signing of a co-located Wyndham Grand hotel with 300 guest rooms and suites, and Wyndham Grand Residences Batumi Gonio with 755 apartments, suites and townhouses, both expected in 2026 at that time.

Wyndham Hotels & Resorts describes itself in its third-quarter 2026 results release of 21 October 2026 as one of the world’s largest hotel franchising companies, with approximately 8,500 hotels in approximately 100 countries, over 877,000 rooms and 25 brands. Its own site says all hotels are either franchised by the company or managed by Wyndham Hotel Management or an affiliate. The brand therefore describes the operating standards licensed to the project, and the questions about the building and the contract are put to the developer.

Aimbridge Hospitality is named as the manager. The Hotel Management Network report of 12 July 2024 says Aimbridge EMEA was appointed for the Wyndham Grand Residences Batumi Gonio complex, with Aqua, Family Club and Riviera within 900 m of one another, and that a technical services agreement was signed in 2022. The developer’s certificates page lists the licence-related contracts by title. A buyer can ask to see the parts of those agreements that bind owners.

Frequently asked questions

What is Wyndham Grand Residences Gonio Family Club?

Wyndham Grand Residences Gonio Family Club is the Family Club part of the Wyndham Grand Batumi Gonio complex in Gonio, south of Batumi. The developer, European Village LLC, describes it as a five-star, club-style building of two blocks and five floors with plans from 37.3 m2. Units are sold as hotel units, and Aimbridge Hospitality is named in trade press as the operator. The Wyndham Grand brand is licensed by Wyndham Hotels & Resorts.

How much does a unit cost at Wyndham Grand Residences Gonio Family Club?

The developer prints a rate of EUR 9,080 per m2 as of 5 November 2026, about USD 10,213 per m2 at the National Bank of Georgia rates, and no unit price list. The portal batumi.estate lists 19 units from EUR 560,391 to EUR 1,349,640 on the same date. The rate on the developer’s page was EUR 5,653 on 10 April 2026, so a written price for the exact unit is needed.

What sizes are available?

The developer’s plans are a 37.3 m2 Junior Suite, a 58.2 m2 Deluxe Suite, an 87.5 m2 Family Suite and a 119.4 m2 Penthouse. The portal lists individual units from 52.5 m2 to 141.8 m2, with no 37.3 m2 unit among the 19 shown. Areas include balconies in at least some listings, so the net internal area should be requested separately for the unit being considered.

Is the building finished?

The latest developer report found, for December 2025 and published on 22 January 2026, shows exterior and balcony finishing work under way in Blocks A and B. The developer’s current page shows no delivery label; its capture of 10 April 2026 said “Delivery 2026”, and the portal says completion 2027. No source read describes the blocks as completed. The contractual delivery date and the permit stage should be requested in writing.

Does Wyndham own or build the residences?

Trade reports name European Village as the owner and developer and Aimbridge as the operator. Wyndham describes itself as a hotel franchising company, and the brand and operating standards are licensed to the project. The developer’s certificates page lists the licence, construction and consulting agreements by title. A buyer can ask to see the terms that affect owners, including how long the licence runs and what happens to the building’s name and management if the licence is not renewed.

Where is Wyndham Grand Residences Gonio Family Club and how far is Batumi?

The portal gives the address as Svimon Kananeli street 11g in Gonio-Kvariati. From the portal’s map pin, central Batumi is about 10.8 km in a straight line and 13.7 km by road (about 16 minutes in free-flowing traffic, indicative). Batumi International Airport is about 5.7 km in a straight line and 7.8 km by road, and the Sarpi border village is about 5.0 km in a straight line.

Can a foreigner buy a unit, and does it give a residence permit?

Article 32 of the Law on the Legal Status of Aliens lets foreigners own property, and a separate law limits agricultural land. A short-term residence permit is a separate application and requires title to non-agricultural property with a market value exceeding USD 150,000 equivalent in GEL, established by a certified assessor. A purchase does not itself give a permit, and whether a hotel unit qualifies depends on the registered right and the valuation.

Which taxes apply?

PwC’s summary, reviewed on 2 September 2026, gives 5% personal income tax on residential rental income without deductions and 5% on profit from selling an apartment. The Revenue Service sets 1 November for the property tax declaration and 15 November for payment. Registration of a right costs GEL 150, 270 or 350 depending on speed. Rules differ by person, and later amendments are covered in the property tax guide.

Why do the developer and portals show different prices?

The developer prints a rate “from” per m2 and changes it over time; its archived pages show USD 2,952 in September 2023 and EUR 9,080 in November 2026. Portals list individual units with their own totals, and the pages carry different dates and currency signs. An aggregator page without a date shows USD 295,964 for 37.3 m2. Only a written price from the seller for a named unit settles the figure.

What should be checked in the Public Registry?

The extract shows the registered owner, the land category and purpose of use, and pledges, leases or restrictions. For Wyndham Grand Residences Gonio Family Club the useful checks are the plot entry now and the unit’s own entry once the building is commissioned, with the area, cadastral code and type of right matching the contract. Registry fees and sample contract forms are published by the National Agency of Public Registry.
