History

2024: Construction begins

In Anapa, in the fall of 2024, the construction of the largest resort complex in Russia called "Rays," worth ₽48 billion, started. According to the managing partner of the project Nikolai Katanyan, all the necessary permits for the implementation of the project have been obtained, and work is already underway in the active phase. During the construction, it is planned to complete the project by 2029, which will be a significant stage in the development of the tourist infrastructure of the Black Sea coast.

According to Kommersant, the Luchi resort complex is being built in the area of ​ ​ the village of Dzhemete, 200 meters from the Anapa railway station. The total building area is 32 hectares. The project provides for the construction of a hotel fund for 6.5 thousand rooms, where brands such as Aleean Select, Azimut Park Hotel Anapa, Cosmos and Domina will be represented. Construction is carried out by a consortium of companies "Vertical-Invest" and ADM Group. The project is financed within the framework of project financing of Sberbank of Russia PJSC.

At the first stage of construction, it is planned to invest ₽17 billion. The resort will offer vacationers unique opportunities: the largest indoor water park on the Black Sea coast, its own embankment, bath complex, SPA center, conference room for 1,500 people, retail space, as well as a medical center. A feature of the resort will be a long light and music fountain and more than 30 restaurants of various concepts. To protect the environment, the entry of cars with internal combustion engines will be limited to the territory of "Rays."

According to Nikolai Katanyan, the idea of ​ ​ creating a resort arose in 2016, when analysts noted a significant increase in investment in hotel real estate. The Rays project is aimed at creating a unique resort product with high profitability and fast payback. The developers studied global trends in countries such as Dubai, Egypt and Indonesia, and came to the conclusion that Anapa is one of the most promising locations for the implementation of such projects on the Black Sea coast.^[1]
