The villas, in order for this stay
Only two villas include The Black Key Arrival, so the order here follows their other features.
We begin with Amahoro, a private villa behind its own gate in Kibagabaga, a quiet residential part of Kigali. The drive from the airport to Amahoro takes about 20 minutes. A house manager is on site, housekeeping is daily and security is on duty around the clock. Book three nights or more at Amahoro and The Black Key Arrival, the airport pickup, is part of the stay.
Urugwiro is the next door to open: a four-bedroom villa on 2,000 m² of gated grounds in Kacyiru, with an infinity pool and an outdoor hot tub. At Urugwiro, a stay of three nights or more includes the airport pickup, The Black Key Arrival. The drive from the airport to Urugwiro takes about 20 minutes.
