The stay in brief

A whole villa is how a group stays together in Kigali: four of the collection's four villas are booked whole to one group at a time, and they sleep from four to eight guests. Travellers from Kenya choose among Amahoro, Urugwiro, Irebero and Ikaze.

Getting to Kigali

Kenya Airways and RwandAir fly non-stop from Nairobi (NBO), and RwandAir flies with one stop from Mombasa (MBA), which puts a Kigali villa one flight away from Kenya.

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

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

Entering Rwanda from Kenya. Free entry pass on arrival, up to six months.

Price and payment

At home you spend in Kenyan shilling (KES). The stay itself is quoted in US dollars. You can pay with MTN MoMo, with Airtel Money, in US dollars (USD), in Rwandan francs (RWF) and in crypto, such as Tether (USDT).

A whole villa starts from $200/night (about 26,000 KES). Converted amounts use the rate of 20 October 2026 (1 USD = 129.77 KES) and are a guide, not a quote.

Details are shared by the concierge alone, in writing, once the 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

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

For a larger group, several villas can be booked together, and the concierge arranges it.

Everything the concierge arranges is quoted before you confirm.

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

Arranged by your concierge

Ask the concierge for private chef and groceries, private driver, restaurant and nightlife bookings and currency exchange; every service is quoted before you confirm.

The villas, in order for this stay

They are listed by size, because a group starts with the headcount.

At the head of the list, Amahoro: Kibagabaga's villa of four suites, two living rooms, a pool and a cinema room. At Amahoro the outdoor kitchen and barbecue sit close to the fire pit, so dinner and the evening happen in one place. Amahoro sleeps eight in four en-suite bedrooms: one king and three queens.

Urugwiro follows: a gated villa in Kacyiru with a duplex principal suite and a second lounge for a quieter corner. Urugwiro sleeps eight in four bedrooms: one king and three queens; three are en-suite and the fourth uses the hallway bathroom. The principal suite is a duplex with its own lounge.

Then Irebero: a four-bedroom villa on 1,000 m² of tropical gardens in Rebero, minutes from the city centre. 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. Irebero sleeps seven in four bedrooms: one king, two queens and one single; three are en-suite and a full guest bathroom is downstairs.

Ikaze is a two-suite villa in Niboye, fenced, gated and watched over by a security company day and night. At Ikaze the living room becomes the Red Room after dark, with Netflix ready on the TV. The garden has an outdoor playground, and the house has a high chair. A house manager is on site, housekeeping is daily and a professional security company watches the house day and night. 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.

“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.”
Vania O. · Urugwiro · September 2026
