The stay in brief

Everyone under one roof: Amahoro, Urugwiro, Irebero and Ikaze. Each is booked whole, to one group, and the biggest sleep eight.

Getting to Kigali

The UK is linked to Kigali by a direct route: RwandAir flies non-stop from London (LHR).

Landing at night is not a problem: the pickup follows the flight, and the villa is about 15 to 20 minutes away.

On the clock, London is two hours behind Kigali in January and one hour behind in July, so plan the flight and the first call with the concierge around it.

Before you fly: As citizens of a member state of the African Union, the Commonwealth or La Francophonie, you receive a visa on arrival and the visa fee is waived for a visit of up to 30 days.

Price and payment

The villas are priced in US dollars rather than GBP; payment is accepted in US dollars (USD), in Rwandan francs (RWF), in crypto, such as Tether (USDT), with MTN MoMo and with Airtel Money.

A whole villa starts from $200/night (about 150 GBP). Converted amounts use the rate of 20 October 2026 (1 USD = 0.7511 GBP) and are a guide, not a quote.

No payment details are published on this website: the concierge sends them once 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

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

Pets are welcome at every villa.

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

The villas, in order for this stay

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

Leading the list, Amahoro is a four-suite villa in Kibagabaga where the evenings move from the pool to the fire pit and on to the cinema. Amahoro sleeps eight in four en-suite bedrooms: one king and three queens. The principal suite adds a king bed, a rain shower and a soaking tub.

Then Urugwiro: a four-bedroom villa on 2,000 m² of gated grounds in Kacyiru, with an infinity pool and an outdoor hot tub. At night the living room becomes a private cinema: a 100-inch screen, with lights that change colour. 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. 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. Two full kitchens, an outdoor kitchen with a barbecue and outdoor terrace dining keep the group together over long meals.

The second address is Ikaze, 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.”
