"Olive Grove - overnight stay"
The room was very comfortable and perfect for a one night stay.
After a long flight we wanted to have a walk but realistically Olive Grove is not within easy walking distance of the city centre. However the staff did suggest it was not a good idea to walk to the centre and offered to get a taxi for us.
Our dinner and breakfast were both excellent with a good choice." See all these reviews: 18n in Namibia

"Peaceful luxury at Olive Grove"
Really helpful staff who booked us a table for dinner in a restaurant and arranged transport to drop us off and pick us up. Bius the driver was delightful. The staff also went to the trouble of contacting Expert Africa when we left a coat behind - so we were able to go back and retrieve it.
We were really impressed by this level of service." See all these reviews: 12n in Namibia
