Who this property suits
This lodge suits self-drive travellers who want a spacious, garden-style base in Windhoek before or after heading out to Etosha, the Namib Desert or the coast. It is a reasonable fit for families and groups thanks to its chalet-style accommodation, on-site restaurants and pools, and it is also a practical choice for travellers with an early flight given its proximity to Eros Domestic Airport.
Location and destination context
The property describes itself as roughly 3 miles from central Windhoek in the Olympia area, on the edge of the city rather than in the busy downtown core. Windhoek is the natural starting and finishing point for most Namibia self-drive itineraries, so this lodge is commonly used as a first or last-night base either side of a wider Namibia trip.
Accommodation and room overview
The property lists a range of accommodation types, from standard double or twin rooms through to luxury rooms and self-catering chalets with a kitchenette, some of which can sleep families or small groups. Facilities listed by the property include air conditioning, a fridge, a private bathroom and a terrace in many units, with some rooms overlooking the gardens or pool. Travellers should confirm the exact room or chalet configuration, bedding and view when booking, since availability changes by date.
Facilities and services
Arebbusch Travel Lodge lists facilities that include two outdoor swimming pools, free on-site parking, an airport shuttle service, free Wi-Fi and 24-hour reception. A communal braai (barbecue) area and bar are also listed, along with a terrace overlooking a pond with a fountain.
Dining information
The property lists two on-site dining options: a main restaurant with a fireplace serving a mix of Namibian, German, Italian, seafood and grill dishes alongside a buffet breakfast, and a pizzeria serving pizza and grilled dishes for dinner. Travellers should confirm current opening hours and offerings when booking, as restaurant details can change.
Access and transport considerations
The property lists itself as roughly five minutes’ drive from Eros Domestic Airport, making it a practical stop for travellers connecting to or from a domestic or charter flight. Windhoek’s main international airport, Hosea Kutako, is described as roughly 31 miles away. Self-drive visitors will find on-site parking useful, and the property is a common first or last stop on a wider self-drive route.
Nearby attractions
The property describes the National Rugby Stadium as within walking distance, with bowling, golf and a sports centre a short drive away. Windhoek’s city centre, including its museums, craft markets and restaurants, is a short drive from the lodge.
Practical considerations
Check-in and check-out times, deposit requirements and cancellation terms are set by the property and can change, so travellers should confirm these details on the booking page before paying. Namibia Travel Guide does not set or control these terms.
