About Airport Residential Area

The Airport Residential Area is the address that international Accra calls home. Laid out as a low-density residential zone beside Kotoka International Airport, its leafy streets and walled compounds have long housed the city's diplomats, expatriate executives and frequent travellers, drawn by the unbeatable combination of central location and quick access to flights, hotels and the business districts. What sets the area apart is its concentration of quality. Some of Accra's best restaurants cluster here, from the Nobu-pedigree Japanese kitchen at Santoku to the long-running French dining room at La Chaumiere, while Marina Mall, the Kempinski and Movenpick hotels and several private hospitals round out the amenities. The city's leading international schools, including Ghana International School and Lincoln Community School, are minutes away. It is a comfortable, car-based neighbourhood built around security and convenience rather than street life, and that polished, cosmopolitan character keeps it firmly at the top of Accra's prime residential market.
