Accommodation Meals FAQ
Join us in doing a good deed and help us care for our fluffy residents!
We call our coliving "green" for a reason. It’s located on the edge of the village of Gumbrini, next to the forest and near the Sataplia Nature Reserve.
It’s super convenient to get to Kutaisi or Tskaltubo from here. A minibus will get you to Kutaisi in 15-20 minutes, and it’s even quicker to Tskaltubo.
You’ll have access to a spacious coworking area with panoramic windows, to fast wi-fi, a large garden, a balcony with spots for work and relaxation, and even our very own bar.

Eco-friendly relationships
We embrace eco-friendliness in everything, from how we interact with each other to how we live our daily lives.
Productivity
We value productivity. We encourage everyone to make the most of their time here. There's nothing better than a good day’s work.
Wellness
We focus on a healthy lifestyle, paying attention to physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

We value a balance between work and relaxation. We love both working hard and taking time to rest and recharge.
So, what's going to happen here? Mornings kick off with a variety of practices and activities to wake you up and fill you with energy and ideas for the day. During the day, we work, handle our personal tasks, or just relax. Evenings are for fun events and great conversations.
On weekends you can go on a trip to tourist places. Sunday evenings are for our family-style dinners where we cook together. Changes and additions are always welcome from our participants.
You’ll also be added to a private chat with all the participants of your forest retreat!

Don't forget to share your experience at the Forest Retreat Workation on Google Maps.
A workation retreat is a combination of a vacation and work. Our retreat offers a peaceful environment in a Georgian village near the forest, where you can stay productive while also focusing on relaxation, mental well-being, and meaningful connections.
Who can join the retreat?
We welcome everyone who works remotely, has their own project, or has an idea for a project they want to work on. It's important to us that participants are engaged in the life of the retreat and openly interact with others.
What will the daily schedule look like?
On weekdays, we focus on productive work, with everyone engaged in their own projects and tasks. The day starts with a shared breakfast where we discuss our plans. Throughout the day, everyone works on their own, and we come together again for lunch and in the evening to relax and socialize. On weekends, we organize group outings to nature, exploring mountains, waterfalls, canyons, and rivers to recharge and enjoy a change of scenery.
How many people will be part of each session?
Each session is unique. To foster better community interaction, we limit the group size to 6-12 people. This allows for meaningful connections while respecting the need for solitude.
How can I apply or learn more?
If you've already chosen a session, just send in your application for the dates (you can find the session applications for specific dates a bit higher up on this page). If you have any additional questions, feel free to email us at colivingnewlevel@gmail.com or message us via WhatsApp or Telegram at +995 574 59 44 88.

If I need a private room only, is that possible?
Yes, it is possible if there are available rooms. Please note that the cost will change in this case.
Where are you located, and how can I get there and reach the nearest town or store?
The coliving is located 8 km from Kutaisi and 3 km from Tskaltubo. Public transportation runs every hour to both Kutaisi and Tskaltubo, and taxis are also available. Here is a detailed description of how to get to us: bit.ly/4g3T1kJ. The nearest grocery store is 2.5 km from the coworking & coliving.
How can I manage meals if I have a special diet?
You inform us about your preferences. If we're unable to provide them (sometimes it is difficult to get certain products in Georgia), we can discuss all the details via email or during a call.
My work requires a lot of calls. Do you have a call room or special place for that?
Yes, we have a call room available. We also have outdoor workplaces (on the balcony and in the bar) that are also used for conversations and calls.
