Kvareli Lake Resort KAKHETI, GEORGIA
Set in Georgia’s celebrated wine region of Kakheti, Kvareli Lake Resort rests along the shores of a private lake, framed by the peaks of the Greater Caucasus Mountains. The surrounding Alazani Valley, where winemaking traditions date back more than 8,000 years, lends the landscape a strong sense of heritage. The resort’s architecture takes a contemporary
yet regionally sensitive approach, combining clean lines with natural materials and expansive views. A recently completed reception pavilion, recognised internationally, sets the tone for the property’s understated design. Accommodation is arranged across two buildings, with light-filled rooms overlooking either the lake or surrounding vineyards and mountains. Dining reflects both Georgian culinary heritage
and broader influences. The Georgian restaurant showcases regional ingredients, from Kakhetian sunflower oil and fresh herbs to artisanal cheeses and traditional bread baked in a clay oven. Seasonal menus highlight local produce and time- honoured recipes. Alongside this, the European
restaurant offers a more contemporary perspective, with lighter dishes and refined interpretations. A dedicated culinary space deepens the
connection to Georgian food culture. Guests can take part in making various local dishes, bringing a hands-on dimension to the region’s gastronomy. Wellness is central to the resort experience, with
two spa spaces offering a comprehensive approach to relaxation. One is in the main building, while the second is beside the outdoor pool, where a heated open-air pool operates year-round. Facilities include treatment rooms, saunas and a fitness area. An exclusive partnership with French skincare brand Vinésime introduces treatments that harness grape-seed antioxidants and red wine extracts, reflecting the region’s winemaking heritage. Beyond the spa, the resort encourages a slower
engagement with the landscape. Water bicycles glide across the lake, cycling paths trace the shoreline and yoga, Pilates and sound therapy sessions can be arranged. Nearby, cultural landmarks such as Gremi Fortress and traditional qvevri wine cellars offer insight into Georgia’s historic wine practices.
