Traveller Reviews

  • The Olive Grove is a great place to stay in Windhoek - can't recommend it strongly enough too.

    Joanne Drinkwater, June 2012
  • Very nice and homey. Wifi is a God send! Highly recommended.

    Melanie Lim, May 2012
  • Namibia was incredible! Olive Grove was exactly what we wanted and just perfect. They even gave us a free upgrade on our room for the second night. The staff went out of their way to make sure the trip was truly special and memorable. We would highly recommend the guesthouse and Namibia in general.

    Jared Knab, May 2012
  • We found Olive Grove excellent and we can recommend it.

    Elisabetta Arzillo, September 2011
  • Olive Grove Guest House was lovely, staff very friendly and helpful.

    Stephen Hopwood, May 2011
  • Awesome guest house, so much, that I've shown friends that want to build something similar in Tanz, the lay out and have gone into detail about the great vibe of the place.

    Joanne Parker, April 2011
  • The trip was really amazing, I loved it. Zambia was welcoming as I remembered it. The Zambezi Sun is stunning, and offers so many activities that we were never stuck for something to do. I love it there and would recommend anyone goes to stay there. Some of my other favourite hotels were the Olive Grove Guest House in Windhoek - It was beautifully set up and the manager, Brian, really tries to make everyone feel welcome.

  • Olive Grove Guesthouse had good food was very comfortable and have very nice people.They really have good ideas in terms of decoration. A destination we will recommend and next time we fly to Windhoek, we would like to stay there.

    Vincent Marlot, May 2010
  • It was fabulous, quality, stylish, excellent staff and service. We would happily have stayed here the 2 nights instead of Anib as we spent the first day after arriving chilled by the teeny tiny pool on the very comfortable loungers. The bedrooms are simple but quality, huge bath. Breakfast was really excellent quality (huge choice of cooked breakfasts - very nicely done). Lovely touches too.

    Nevine Hunt, August 2009
  • An excellent establishment that is a very smooth operation. The food is also good.
