Luxurious Suite Experience

I was blown away by the luxurious nature of the premium suite at Olive Exclusive. The expansive space included a full kitchen lounge area, a large bedroom, and an outdoor sitting area with a pool. The high ceilings with exposed trusses added to the grandeur, making it easily one of the top rooms I've ever stayed in.

Really good Dining Options

I enjoyed every meal at the hotel’s restaurant. For dinner, the shrimp dish was particularly nice, and the breakfast service, although a bit slow, was complemented by the excellent food quality. The wine selection was also impressive!

Spacious & Elegant Bathroom

The bathroom in my suite was designed thoughtfully, featuring separate sections for the shower, toilet, and sink. The elegant finishes and ample space made it a delight to use after a long day of exploring.

I had a mixed experience at Olive. The rooms are spacious and beautifully designed, and the breakfast served on the patio was fantastic. However, maintenance issues like non-functioning lights and water problems took away from the experience. The restaurant was also closed for dinner, which was disappointing but understandable given the circumstances. Overall, it's a unique place, but it really needs some attention to detail and upkeep.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. On the plus side, the decor is stunning, and the restaurant serves excellent food. However, I encountered several maintenance issues during my stay, which detracted from my overall enjoyment.

The hotel has a stunning and stylish decor that truly captures the eye, but unfortunately, this doesn't translate to the food and service quality. The rooms are spacious and well-furnished, making for a comfortable stay, and the location is quite convenient for exploring Windhoek. However, the service feels a bit lackluster and isn't what I expected from such a beautifully designed space.

We had an incredible experience at this boutique hotel, which was the perfect start to our honeymoon in Namibia. The ambiance was peaceful, and the views of the valley were stunning. Our room was spacious and meticulously designed, and we received a warm welcome from the staff. Dining was a delight, with superb food and drink options. While we really enjoyed our stay, we did notice that the dining could offer even greater variety. Overall, it was a fantastic value and a great place to unwind after arriving in Namibia.
