From the airport the drive to the villa is about 15 to 20 minutes, at any hour of the day or night.

Time difference: Kinshasa is one hour behind Kigali.

Citizens of this country receive a 90-day visa free of charge on arrival.

Rates are in US dollars. From DR Congo, you can pay with MTN MoMo, with Airtel Money, in US dollars (USD), in Rwandan francs (RWF) and in crypto, such as Tether (USDT).

The lowest rate is from $200/night (about 463,000 CDF), converted at the rate of 20 October 2026 (1 USD = 2,314.85 CDF). The confirmed price is always in US dollars.

Low-key celebrations are welcome at every villa, as long as the neighbourhood is not disturbed.

The villas, in order for this stay

Largest first: the order follows capacity, then the shared spaces outdoors.

The list opens at Amahoro: Kibagabaga's villa of four suites, two living rooms, a pool and a cinema room. Amahoro sleeps eight in four en-suite bedrooms: one king and three queens. 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. Amahoro's long pool runs along the villa and is lit at dusk, with a fire-pit bench beside it.

Another house, Urugwiro, a four-bedroom villa on 2,000 m² of gated grounds in Kacyiru, with an infinity pool and an outdoor hot tub. The living rooms are air-conditioned; the bedrooms have fans. Urugwiro has a barbecue in the gardens of its 2,000 m² grounds. Urugwiro sleeps eight in four bedrooms: one king and three queens; three are en-suite and the fourth uses the hallway bathroom.

Irebero follows: a villa in Rebero with two full kitchens, an outdoor kitchen and long terrace dinners. Irebero sleeps seven in four bedrooms: one king, two queens and one single; three are en-suite and a full guest bathroom is downstairs. Irebero's pool sits within the tropical gardens, with the hot tub beside it. A house manager is on site and daily housekeeping is included.

Ikaze follows: a villa in Niboye with a shaded patio, a lawn, an outdoor playground and a high chair. Ikaze sleeps four in two air-conditioned en-suite bedrooms, one with a king bed under a canopy and one with a double bed; a half bathroom is there for guests. 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.”
