Why a private villa

Coming home to Rwanda after years abroad often means a full house: parents, cousins, old friends dropping by. A villa gives that room. Each one is booked to one group at a time, with living rooms large enough for long evenings and a garden for the children.

Amahoro and Urugwiro sleep eight, Irebero seven and Ikaze four, and several villas can be booked together when the whole family comes. Amahoro, Urugwiro and Irebero each have a bedroom without stairs for older relatives; Ikaze's bedrooms are upstairs. The concierge arranges the airport pickup at any hour, a private driver for family visits, a private chef for the big meals and an interpreter in English, French or Kinyarwanda if one is needed.

Good to know

Pets are welcome at every villa. A private chef cooks in the villa on request, with a second or third chef for a larger group. The concierge can look for a babysitter on request.

Arranged by your concierge

The concierge looks after the rest, including airport pickup at any hour, several villas for one family, a private chef, a private driver and an interpreter, and quotes each item before you confirm. One message on WhatsApp starts it: your dates, the group and what you have in mind.

The villas

Here are the villas that fit, with what sets each apart.

In this group: Amahoro, a duplex villa in Kibagabaga with the feel of a penthouse, a pool and a fire pit for the evenings. The principal suite adds a king bed, a rain shower and a soaking tub.

Urugwiro, a villa set in landscaped gardens in Kacyiru, about five minutes by car from the Kigali Convention Centre, sleeps up to eight guests in four bedrooms, three of them en-suite, with a duplex principal suite. At night the living room becomes a private cinema: a 100-inch screen, with lights that change colour.

Irebero is a four-bedroom villa on 1,000 m² of tropical gardens in Rebero, minutes from the city centre. Irebero sleeps seven in four bedrooms: one king, two queens and one single; three are en-suite and a full guest bathroom is downstairs.

Ikaze is a standalone villa in Niboye, Kicukiro, made for couples, 10 to 15 minutes from the airport. Ikaze sleeps up to four. The principal suite has a king bed under a canopy, a 65-inch screen and a balcony with views.
