Pineapple House Boutique Hotel
A mountain-view pool terrace and praised breakfast near Broken Bath Beach
About this hotel
The terrace is the property's best seat, carrying both pool and mountain views across a year-round outdoor pool that runs regardless of season. Rooms are air-conditioned with private bathrooms, bathrobes and free WiFi as standard, each finished with a work desk, minibar and flat-screen TV. The breakfast draws consistent praise from guests, running continental, buffet, full English or Irish and vegetarian formats, and the lounge and 24-hour front desk cover the rest of a boutique-scale stay. Concierge service and free on-site private parking round out the practical side. Broken Bath Beach sits a short walk away, with the V&A Waterfront 4.4 kilometres and Table Mountain nine, both workable as a half-day trip from the property.
- Year-round outdoor pool
- Pool and mountain-view terrace
- Praised breakfast
- Short walk to Broken Bath Beach
Our take
This suits couples wanting a mountain-view pool terrace and a genuinely strong breakfast within walking distance of the beach rather than a large resort stay. The year-round pool rewards booking outside peak summer specifically. Families needing dedicated kids' facilities should look toward a larger family-oriented property. Travellers prioritising a strong breakfast and a genuine mountain view over a beachfront address will find this boutique property delivers on both fronts.
- Take breakfast on the terrace rather than indoors, the mountain-view seating is worth requesting
- Walk to Broken Bath Beach in the late afternoon for the quieter stretch of sand
- Book free on-site parking rather than hunting for street parking nearby
Why we love it

- A consistently praised breakfast
- A year-round outdoor pool

Why guests love itPineapple House Boutique Hotel has a year-round outdoor pool and a terrace with pool and mountain views, and its breakfast is the part guests praise most. Broken Bath Beach is a short walk away, so a morning in the sea and an afternoon at the pool fit into the same day. Rooms are air-conditioned and there is a lounge for quieter hours. With a 9.3 score from 528 reviews, I would recommend it for a relaxed Cape Town stay with the beach close by.
