Villa Alazani

Top choice in Kakheti


This ample village house in Kisiskhevi, 7km southeast of Telavi, is a wonderful rural hideaway. It has been beautifully restored by its owners (a group of international journalists and film-makers) with wooden pillars, lovely spacious common areas, a marvellous collection of antique carpets, four good-sized bedrooms and a spacious kitchen.

A taxi from Telavi costs 5 GEL, and the amiable Russian-speaking caretaker Temuri is normally available to taxi guests around for excursions. Dinner, Georgian music performances and cooking lessons are available on request.
