Accommodation in New Athos: how many options are available in the catalogue

At the time of the update, 52 accommodation options are available in the New Athos catalogue. The town stretches along the coast and rises up the mountains in terraces, so the location of your accommodation has a major effect on your daily routes. Choose a location based on the main purpose of your trip: stay within walking distance of the beaches or book a room higher up, closer to historical sites and quieter surroundings. Read about how the town compares with other destinations in the region in terms of holiday style in the article Abkhazia Resorts 2026: How to Choose the Perfect Holiday Destination. Additional tips on choosing a destination can be found in the article How to Choose a Resort in Abkhazia: A Practical Guide by Holiday Type.

Landmarks to consider when choosing accommodation

When searching for accommodation, use the resort’s main attractions as your reference points. If you plan to swim every day, look for guest houses near the coast. Kamarit Beach is New Athos’s main urban beach. Its wide shoreline, gentle entry into the water and well-developed infrastructure make it convenient for family holidays. From here, it is easy to walk to the shops and the promenade.

If you are more interested in walks and history, look for accommodation at the foot of the mountains or on their slopes. The New Athos Simon the Canaanite Monastery is a monumental architectural complex on the slope of Mount Iverian. One of the largest monasteries in Abkhazia, it is a must-see attraction at the resort. The New Athos Waterfall is located nearby. Its powerful stream of water looks impressive at any time of year and has become a symbol of the town. Pedestrian areas and souvenir stalls are also nearby.

Further into the gorge and higher up the slope are the main natural and historical landmarks. New Athos Cave is one of the largest karst caves in the world. Inside are enormous halls, underground lakes and unique dripstone formations. Tours take place on an electric train accompanied by a guide. The Anacopia Fortress rises above the town on the summit of Mount Iverian and is New Athos’s main historical monument. Its surviving walls and towers offer panoramic views of the town and the sea.
