The villas

The collection has four villas: Amahoro (Kibagabaga, eight guests), Urugwiro (Kacyiru, eight), Irebero (Rebero, seven) and Ikaze (Kicukiro, four). Several villas can be booked together for a larger group. In Côte d’Ivoire you might call it a luxury villa or a private residence; in Kigali it is a private villa, booked to your group alone.
