House vacation rentals in Lake Kivu

Superbe prestation et Arnaud le propriétaire ainsi que l’équipe sur place super accueillants. Merci pour ce séjour mémorable.

All Semanywa's listed amenities were exactly as shown in the pictures. The pool is perfect for an evening swim and the place is just so peaceful and private. The house manager was extremely helpful and even though there was a communication barrier, she and Semanywa made us feel right at home. I would highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Kigali and need both serenity and reasonable proximity from Kigali Center.

This place is exquisite! Well taken care of and clean and in a nice neighborhood! The host was so nice, friendly, responsive and kind The stuff there is also helpful and friendly. My friends and I had a blast there. Everything there is top notch. Surely, Give Daine your money!! Lol!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Kelly’s. The listing was effectively a home away from home; clean, spacious, well equipped, private and quiet. Ideal for a family vacation in the beautiful city of Kigali with very responsive and helpful staff. We are already contemplating a second more extended visit. It’s a definite recommend!

THE LOCATION IS NOT LISTED CORRECTLY! it is 15 minute drive to the east (!) of the airport otherwise: the place was great overall, explicitly because the staff is so helpful! they got us a car for rent, they did our laundry, they brought everything we wanted right to our door. place is very clean, nothing to complain.

This was our first trip to Africa, so there was a lot to get acquainted with and having this space as our retreat was wonderful. Despite the language barrier, we seemed to communicate pretty well and our house helper was so kind and kept the place in sparkling order. What initially attracted us to the rental was the pool, and it was EXQUISITE - so refreshing during this dry season. The lifeguard came regularly and kept the water very clean. We were grateful for the screened windows, the fans and the optional mosquito netting over the beds. They even did a load of laundry for us during our stay and were proactive in meeting up with us to deliver it when we were back from a side trip to the rain forest. There were a good few options for enjoying a morning coffee on the patio and we always had enough space for 3 adults to have some private space behind a locked gate around the property. We always felt safe and would stay here again.

Wir haben hier im März 2024 als Familie mit fünf Personen gewohnt. Das Haus ist sehr schön, modern, großzügig. Es war sehr sauber als wir ankamen und wir wurden sehr herzlich empfangen. Kommunikation mit dem Host war freundlich und hilfsbereit, es gab immer schnell eine Antwort bei Fragen. Leider konnten wir die Dusche in einem der Badezimmer oben nicht nutzen, da der Abfluss gar nicht funktionierte. Auch war es am Anfang etwas schwierig mit dem Wasserdruck und parallel dass das Wasser nicht wirklich warm/heiss wurde. Letzteres ließ sich aber nach wenigen Tagen und Ausprobieren der Einstellungen des Heizsystems beheben. Die Wasserpumpe ist mega laut – aber geht halt nicht anders. Sonst ist die Gegen schön, man fühlt sich total sicher und alles ist toll bepflanzt. Nur der Weg zum Haus/der Gated Community ist sehr sehr abenteuerlich, schafft nicht jedes Auto. Da ist bisher nichts erschlossen an Straßen. Alles in allem haben wir eine tolle Zeit gehabt und kämen wieder. Danke

Lysette’s place is fantastic, extremely clean, and she is a good host, very communicative. Charles (the house help) is so friendly and helping, I will definitely come back.

swift stay, beautiful area

House 23 is amazing, a pure gem. Well decorated, super comfortable. The neighborhood is great, with excellent restaurants and coffee shops nearby. I recommend !

I have found my go-to place anytime I am in Kigali. It is a peaceful neighbourhood, you can get anywhere easily from the house and the house is exactly as it looks in pictures (clean and feels like home). Most importantly, the host is amazing. She is extremely responsive, provides great recommendations and assistance and makes your stay stress-free. This is an easy 5-star review. I totally recommend the house if you are looking for where to stay in Kigali.

I had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb! The location was perfect—close to all the attractions I wanted to visit. The house itself was beautifully designed, making it a comfortable and inviting space. The host was incredibly helpful, always ready to assist with anything I needed. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a memorable stay.

Als we meer dan 5 sterren konden geven, hadden we dat gedaan. Prachtige plek en top service. Als je wilt kan de lokale gastheer alles voor je regelen van ontbijt en diner tot uitstapjes. Het huis was een heerlijk ruim huis waar je je gelijk thuis voelt. Het geeft je een heerlijk vakantie gevoel. echt Top!!

We always love coming to Umufe, it is so beautiful and peaceful. A special place for our family, we keep on coming back!

A splendid stay at O's place. Lovely decor, solid WiFi, pleasant to note some tea/coffee items and Gideon - a gem! The location is also on point. Easy access and central to different activities.

Unsere Zeit bei Fred war super. Die Unterkunft war wie beschrieben und Fred ist ein sehr sympathischer und angenehmer Gastgeber. Vielen Dank nochmals!

Great house with a wonderful terrace above the lake. No mosquitoes in the house as the host put good mosquito nets and we closed all windows well before sunset. Dinner and beer on the terrace were wonderful. We had stars above and the quiet lake below. Across the lake is a simple village specialised in local beer, grilled pork and simple shopping. It is 500 meters by canoe or motorboat.

No words to discribe Aheza. The house, the service, the place with the view of the volconoes just from the front porch, all was great. The service provided by Harriet and her team (William, Vestina and Robert) was top notch. If you want to have a great stay, this is the place to be.

Marie est un hôte formidable, disponible, dévouée et à l'écoute. L'appartement est dans un seizième paisible, résidentiel et sécurisé. Tout était propre, bien rangé, impeccable. Marie a été disponible pratiquement H24 et nous a aidé à chaque sollicitations. Expérience à renouveler à l'infini. Je recommande fortement, avec priorité ce logement. Kigali was nice.

Alp’s house is perfectly located in the Kimihurura neighbourhood with bars and trendy restaurants within walking distance. While in the city and centric, once in, you are in nature, surrounded by green trees and a huge garden, often with a cozy evening fire. Waking up to the song of birds, sitting in the terrace having a Turkish coffee prepared by Alp and seeing a couple of turaco birds sing and dance while breathing Kigali's crispy morning air was certainly a unique experience. The wooden sauna was just the cherry on the top. Getting in there in the evening and sweating out all the worries from a hard workday was just fantastic. Without doubts I will stay again at Alp’s when I get back to Kigali! Thank you Alp for all the conversations and the wisdom!

Very calm and very pleasant

My stay was absolutely wonderful! The host and staff made the experience effortless and seamless, going above and beyond to assist with everything I needed. The location is perfect—private, peaceful, and just what I was looking for. I truly wish my stay was longer because everything was so great. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be back!

Very nice place, got everything that was needed. Great host

This was my second time staying here, and it was once again perfect. We were a group of 7 adults, and we somehow never felt crowded. This house still looks and feels spotless, and the house team was amazing and cooked a fantastic breakfast at our requested time, as we had an early morning. I highly recommend Emilia's place, and I know I'll be back.
