Officially, it's a guest house, but it's really so much more than that. More intimate & exclusive than a hotel, more relaxed and engaging than a boutique hotel.

Travelling from the airport: From the international airport, travel towards Windhoek on Sam Nujoma Drive. When arriving into "Klein Windhoek" on Sam Nujoma Drive from the airport look out for the second set of traffic lights (You should see a fuel station and a small shopping center on the corner). Turn right at these traffic lights into Nelson Mandela Avenue. Travel along Nelson Mandela Avenue and turn left into Schanzen Road. Towards the top of the hill on Schanzen Road, turn sharp right into Promenaden Road. Turn first right into Ngami Street and you will see Olive Grove Guesthouse on the corner of Promenaden Road and Ngami Street. (Entrance in Ngami Street).
Travelling from town: From the center of town travel north on Independence Avenue. Turn right into Bahnhof Street (look out for Windhoek Police Station on the corner of Independence Avenue and Bahnhof Street) and then left into Robert Mugabe Avenue. Once on Robert Mugabe Avenue, turn almost immediately right into Schanzen Road. Travel over the hill and turn second left into Promenaden Road. Look out for Ngami Street and you will see Olive Grove Guesthouse on the corner (entrance in Ngami Street).

Olive Grove is an up market establishment situated close to the city centre in a quiet, peaceful area. The indoor lounge is tastefully decorated, with comfortable chairs and a fireplace in front of which to relax and read a magazine. Whilst each room caters for the every need of the most discerning traveler, the emphasis remains one of simplicity and elegance. After all, luxury should be subtle.

One of Olive Grove's main features is the large veranda in front of every room, with tables and chairs for 'al fresco' dining. The plunge pool and tranquil garden invite the visitor to make the most of Namibia's open skies, while the open-air spa bath and lounge area provide the outdoor indulgences.
