The villas, in order for this stay
In order of pool setting, Urugwiro first.
Urugwiro comes first: a four-bedroom villa on 2,000 m² of gated grounds in Kacyiru, with an infinity pool and an outdoor hot tub. Urugwiro stands on 2,000 m² of gated, landscaped grounds, with flowering paths and lawns around the pool. Urugwiro's infinity pool reflects the villa and the sky, with a covered lounge above it.
Irebero is the next door to open: Rebero's villa of wellness: a spa room free to use, a gym, a pool and a rooftop lounge over the city. Irebero's pool sits within the tropical gardens, with the hot tub beside it. Irebero stands in 1,000 m² of landscaped tropical gardens, with the pool and hot tub inside them.
The second address is Amahoro, a four-suite villa in Kibagabaga where the evenings move from the pool to the fire pit and on to the cinema. Amahoro's long pool runs along the villa and is lit at dusk, with a fire-pit bench beside it. At Amahoro the outdoor kitchen and barbecue sit close to the fire pit, so dinner and the evening happen in one place.
“It felt like a perfect blend of elegance, comfort, and privacy.”
“We will be back, that is for sure. Rare to find a property that meets all your requirement but this is a pristine development with a lovely pool.”
