Every Project at Sea Breeze Baku: The Complete List

Sea Breeze, the resort city that Agalarov Development has been building on the Caspian coast north of Baku since 2006, is usually described in totals: hundreds of hectares, tens of thousands of residents, dozens of complexes. Those totals are easy to repeat and almost useless to a buyer. What a buyer needs is the opposite - the itemised list. Which complexes exist, which are holes in the ground, which have been handed over, who is building each one, and which of the published delivery dates have already been contradicted by the developer's own materials.

This page is that list. It is maintained as an inventory rather than written as an announcement, and it carries an uncomfortable but necessary caveat at the top: no single authoritative source for this inventory is publicly accessible. The developer's own project pages sit behind a Cloudflare challenge that blocks automated access, so everything below is assembled from sales partners, architects' own project pages, press coverage and announcements by the companies involved. Where sources disagree, the disagreement is shown rather than resolved.

Sea Breeze resort on the Caspian coast

The One Structural Fact That Changes Everything

Before the list, the thing that most coverage of Sea Breeze leaves out: Sea Breeze is not the work of a single developer.

Agalarov Development is the master developer - it holds the masterplan, built the first phases, and operates the resort. But several of the most prominent projects now rising there are being built by other companies entirely. Reportage Group of Abu Dhabi, in partnership with the Azerbaijani Sabah Investment Group, is behind four of them. Tevakol Family, an Israeli engineering and construction company that has worked in Azerbaijan since 2018, describes itself as partner and developer on another.

This matters more than any amenity. The counterparty on your contract, the company that warrants the building, the balance sheet standing behind the delivery date and the entity you chase if something goes wrong all change depending on which project you buy into. Two apartments 400 metres apart inside the same resort can carry entirely different counterparty risk. The developer behind each project is therefore listed below as a column, not as a footnote.

Delivered and Operating

These are the complexes with the strongest evidence behind them - handed over, occupied, or trading on short-stay booking platforms, which is itself a form of proof that a building exists and functions.

Marina Village deserves a note of its own, because it is the only project in this entire inventory where handover is described as happening now rather than promised for later. Its developer also disclosed a figure nobody else has: foreign buyers made up about 37% of purchasers there, against 15-17% in the same company's city projects in Baku. For anyone trying to work out whether non-residents actually buy on this coastline, that single number carries more weight than any brochure.

Others appear in the inventory with less documentation attached: Harbour Residence, Paradise, Lighthouse Residence, Palm Beach, Malibu Residence, Riviera Residence, Palazzo Di Roma, Marina Bay, SABAH Towers.

The project with the most documented scale is BRABUS Island: 592 apartments from studios to three-bedroom units and duplexes, 16 twin villas, across a site of 115,000 sqm. Panorama by ELIE SAAB occupies 23,531 sqm, although its unit count is given variously as 550, 579, 580 and 582 across four separate announcements - a spread worth remembering whenever a precise-sounding number appears in resort marketing.

Announced, Signed, or Still a Rendering

This is where caution matters most, because an architectural visualisation and a signed hotel management agreement look identical in a brochure.

  • Cipriani Residences on Half Moon - despite the common name, Half Moon is an artificial peninsula on the Sea Breeze coastline, and its contractor Evrascon says construction is in progress. An agreement signed in January 2026 for a five-star resort and branded residences inside a tower the developer says will reach 323 metres and become the tallest building in Azerbaijan. Designed by Shaun Killa of Killa Design.
  • Swissotel and Raffles Residences - 13 storeys, 150 hotel keys and 458 branded residences, designed by Melike Altinisik Architects of Istanbul.
  • Nobu Hotel, Restaurant and Residences - announced October 2025: 80 guest rooms and 100 residences including five villas. No opening date has been published.
  • Ribbon Tower and Oasis Crescent - a residential tower on a star-shaped islet, described by its architect as the tallest of a family of seven beacon "lighthouses" along the coastline, and a crescent-and-star island linking the existing masterplan to a western extension.
  • Hilton, Marriott, Radisson, Hyatt - these names appear in resort marketing and developer statements. No opening dates, and in most cases no signed agreements, could be verified. Treat them as pipeline, not inventory.

One correction worth making explicitly, because it recurs in coverage of this coastline: the Ritz-Carlton beach resort planned near Baku is at Zagulba, not Sea Breeze. It is a separate 80-room project with 282 adjoining residences, by a different owner, several kilometres away.

Who Designed It

The resort has five identifiable design authors, and none of them appear on a single broker listing:

  • Scott Brownrigg (UK) - the masterplan itself, commissioned by Nadaran Invest LLP, covering an 18 km stretch of coast, plus Ribbon Tower and Oasis Crescent. Its stated concept involves wind-powered vertical farms, saltwater greenhouses and an "Energy Carpet" integrating solar and wind harvesting into the landscape. The scheme was shortlisted for a World Architecture Festival award in 2024. None of those sustainability features are visible in the built phases to date.
  • Killa Design / Shaun Killa - the 323-metre Cipriani tower on Half Moon.
  • Melike Altinisik Architects - the Swissotel and Raffles scheme.
  • Adel Zehni - credited with the Caspian Dream Liner, the eleven-storey building shaped like a cruise ship. No firm affiliation is published for him.
  • ELIE SAAB Maison - the interiors at Panorama, with furniture made in Italy and selected units delivered furnished.

Two more names belong in the engineering layer: Hydrotrans Engineering, which built the five-hectare artificial peninsula under the Dream Liner, and STEP City, responsible for functional zoning and transport planning.

How to Read the Numbers Above

Three habits will protect you from everything in this table.

Treat every delivery year as a target, not a commitment. Two official pages have given Park Residences 3 two different completion years - 2026 on one, 2029 on another. If the developer's own materials disagree, a date in a brochure is an intention. Our construction timeline review goes through the distinction between built, building and announced in more detail.

Treat every "from" price as a marketing floor. These are the cheapest unit in the cheapest stack, usually shell condition. One sales partner quotes $74,000 shell against $86,855 turnkey for the same entry point - a gap of about 17% before a single piece of furniture.

Weigh every date against the founder's own progress figure. On 26 September 2026 Emin Agalarov told Report.az that "only 10%-15% of the planned work has been completed so far", and described the plan as implementing everything designed over the next seven to eight years. Units here are sold with 2029 and 2030 dates inside a resort its founder calls one-eighth built.

Distrust the resort-wide totals, including the flattering ones. Published figures for the site area range from 500 to 1,000 to 1,600 to 1,750 hectares. The coastline is given as 18 km by the masterplan architect and 22-23 km in later reporting. The resident population is claimed at 20,000, 35,000, 40,000 and 50,000 by sources all connected to the developer. These are not rounding differences; they are different claims, and a page that repeats one of them as fact is not a page that checked.

Why This List Is an Investment Document

A resort of this kind is sold on lifestyle and bought, in practice, on counterparty strength and delivery record. The table above is the shortest route to both. It shows which buildings exist and can be inspected today, which depend on a developer you may never have heard of, which carry a hotel brand that has signed and which carry one that has only been mentioned, and which delivery dates have already moved.

For a first pass at what any of it should cost, our price index and rental yield calculator let you test a specific unit against district-level data rather than against a brochure. If you are earlier in the process, buying property in Azerbaijan as a foreigner covers the ownership and registration mechanics that apply here as everywhere else in the country - including the fact that you can own the apartment but only lease the land beneath it.

This page is updated as projects move between the three sections above. The movement between them is the most useful signal the resort produces.
