Getting to Kigali
To reach Kigali from DR Congo, most travellers connect through Nairobi (Kenya Airways), Addis Ababa (Ethiopian Airlines) or Cairo (EgyptAir); the airport pickup is arranged by the concierge.
Airport pickup can be arranged at any hour, and the villas are about 15 to 20 minutes away.
Kinshasa is one hour behind Kigali.

Price and payment
The villas are priced in US dollars rather than CDF; payment is accepted with MTN MoMo, with Airtel Money, in US dollars (USD), in Rwandan francs (RWF) and in crypto, such as Tether (USDT).
Prices start from $200/night, which is about 463,000 CDF. The conversion uses the rate of 20 October 2026 (1 USD = 2,314.85 CDF), so treat it as a guide.
Payment details come only from the concierge, after your dates are confirmed.
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
Pets are welcome at every villa.
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.

The villas, in order for this stay
Order of this list: Irebero first, for the evenings it holds for two.
Irebero opens the list: a hillside villa in the Rebero Hills with a pool and hot tub, a spa room, a private gym and a wine bar. Irebero's rooftop lounge looks out over the city from the Rebero Hills. Irebero's spa room is free to use; a professional massage therapist is available for a fee.
Next, Urugwiro: a gated villa in Kacyiru with a duplex principal suite and a second lounge for a quieter corner. At Urugwiro the hot tub is outdoors, in the gardens of the gated grounds. The principal suite is a duplex with its own lounge.
Another house, Amahoro, a four-suite villa in Kibagabaga where the evenings move from the pool to the fire pit and on to the cinema. Evenings move outdoors to the fire pit and the outdoor kitchen, and end in the cinema room. Amahoro's long pool runs along the villa and is lit at dusk, with a fire-pit bench beside it. Amahoro's fire pit sits in a sunken lounge by the pool, lit after dark.
Ikaze is a standalone villa in Niboye, Kicukiro, made for couples, 10 to 15 minutes from the airport. Ikaze has Netflix ready on the TV and already signed in, and a Smart TV in each bedroom. At Ikaze the living room becomes the Red Room after dark, with Netflix ready on the TV.
“All in all the staff was extremely accommodating to our needs and has daily house cleaning.”
“It felt like a perfect blend of elegance, comfort, and privacy.”
