Lopota Lake Resort & Spa — Hotel in Kakheti, Georgia

In short

Lopota Lake Resort & Spa is a large, multi-building resort hotel set beside Lopota Lake in the village of Napareuli, Telavi municipality, in the Kakheti wine region of eastern Georgia. According to the hotel, it grew from a small seven-room property opened in 2008 into a 310-room resort spread across 16 buildings, with its own winery, spa, several restaurants, a jazz club and outdoor activity programme.

The building and its history

The resort was developed around a lake that the hotel describes as having been “forgotten” before construction began. It was founded by Goga Maisuradze, whose family, according to the hotel, continues to run the property today. The hotel states it was the first destination resort to be built in Kakheti.

• Ongoing — addition of wellness facilities, dining venues, a jazz club, a winery (Château Buera) and conference spaces, with the resort’s own vineyards, olive trees and beehives developed on the grounds
