The stay in brief

From Kenya, a business stay in a Kigali villa gives you a desk, the internet and a house to yourselves. The workspace villas are Amahoro, Urugwiro and Irebero.

Getting to Kigali

Travellers from Kenya fly straight in: Kenya Airways and RwandAir fly non-stop from Nairobi (NBO), and RwandAir flies with one stop from Mombasa (MBA).

Airport pickup can be arranged at any hour, and the villas are about 15 to 20 minutes away.

On the clock, Nairobi is one hour ahead of Kigali, so plan the flight and the first call with the concierge around it.

Before you fly: Free entry pass on arrival, up to six months.

Price and payment

Stays are quoted in US dollars, while Kenya uses the Kenyan shilling (KES). For the booking you can pay with MTN MoMo, with Airtel Money, in US dollars (USD), in Rwandan francs (RWF) and in crypto, such as Tether (USDT).

Expect rates from from $200/night, or about 26,000 KES. The conversion is made at the rate of 20 October 2026 (1 USD = 129.77 KES), updated daily.

The concierge confirms the total in writing and sends the payment details after your dates are set.

Cash is also accepted on arrival at the villa, in US dollars or Rwandan francs, with a written receipt from the concierge.

Good to know

Each villa is booked to one group at a time, so the whole house is yours.

A private chef cooks in the villa on request, and for a larger group a second or third chef joins.

Everything the concierge arranges is quoted before you confirm.

Amahoro, Urugwiro and Irebero each have a bedroom without stairs; Ikaze's bedrooms are upstairs.

The villas, in order for this stay

A desk and a connection decide the order; security and parking come next.

Leading the list, Amahoro is a private villa behind its own gate in Kibagabaga, a quiet residential part of Kigali. Every bedroom has its own workspace, and Wi-Fi runs through the house. The living room and the Red Room are air-conditioned; the bedrooms have modern ceiling fans. Evenings move outdoors to the fire pit and the outdoor kitchen, and end in the cinema room.

Also here, Urugwiro, Kacyiru's villa of gardens, an infinity pool and a dedicated office, a short walk from cafés and embassies. At night the living room becomes a private cinema: a 100-inch screen, with lights that change colour. Urugwiro has a dedicated office alongside the living spaces, in a gated compound near the Kigali Convention Centre.

Next, Irebero: a villa in the quiet Rebero Hills where the wine bar becomes the group's private lounge after dark. Irebero has a dedicated workspace with a desk, a bookshelf and an armchair. Air conditioning is in the principal suite and the second bedroom; the other rooms have modern ceiling fans. At Irebero the outdoor kitchen and barbecue sit beside the terrace dining area, on top of two full kitchens indoors.

Ikaze is the next door to open: a two-suite villa in Niboye, fenced, gated and watched over by a security company day and night. Ikaze has fibre internet, included in the stay, in a quiet house 10 to 15 minutes from the airport. After dark the living room becomes the Red Room: red mood lighting around a 100-inch screen.

“All in all the staff was extremely accommodating to our needs and has daily house cleaning.”
Darnell · Ikaze · October 2026
“It felt like a perfect blend of elegance, comfort, and privacy.”
