Should you rent accommodation in Kobuleti separately or stay in Batumi and take a day trip to the beach town?

TL;DR
If you only want beach time, rent a place in Kobuleti for a few days — trains are infrequent, a marshrutka (shared minibus) takes about 40 minutes. Otherwise, base yourself in Batumi and do Kobuleti as a single day trip, since there's little else to see there besides the beach.

If the beach is your main goal, it makes sense to rent accommodation directly in Kobuleti for a few days.

Besides the beach, there isn't much else to see in Kobuleti — one day is enough to explore the town.

If you want a more varied trip, it's more logical to base yourself in Batumi and visit Kobuleti as a one-day excursion.
