Our Story
The House of Pineapple™
The creation of The House of Pineapple™ began with our founder, Sophie D. Bray, and her personal journey within the short-term rental market. During this time, she identified a clear gap waiting to be filled.
Once, only large hotels could afford to offer high-end amenities such as custom-branded slippers, curated vanity kits, and matching toiletries. Smaller properties, Airbnbs, and boutique stays were often left behind.
We changed that.
With no minimum order quantities, we make it possible for every host, from the smallest coastal inn to the most stylish city loft, to provide a truly five-star experience. Our curated collections, from natural toiletries and loofahs to vanity kits, pool towels, and disposable slippers, bring polish, cohesion, and delight to every guest stay.
At The House of Pineapple™, we believe that luxury should be accessible to all. Whether you are managing a thirty-room boutique hotel or preparing your guest room for weekend visitors, our carefully selected range of high-end hospitality products allows you to bring a five-star touch to any space, whatever the scale.
The Design
The design and mood of The House of Pineapple™ were inspired by a vivid meeting of influences: the exuberant colours of Lilly Pulitzer and the iconic photography of Slim Aarons. Both artists captured a unique contrast of the 1970s, a time of political tension, economic uncertainty, and social unrest, set against scenes celebrating joy and beauty in defiance of it all.
In their worlds, carefree figures in bright attire lounged beside turquoise pools, champagne in hand, while the shadows of inflation and conflict lingered beyond the frame. Their work was never naive; it was a statement. A declaration that colour, style, and optimism could thrive even in turbulent times, offering a moment of escape.
Today, history repeats itself. We once again live amid uncertainty, with headlines filled with news of conflict, inflation, job insecurity, and division. Yet in this climate, The House of Pineapple™ embraces that same spirit of joyful rebellion. We believe that hospitality, especially in travel, should offer more than simply a place to stay. It should create a sense of fantasy, even if only for a moment.
Our design ethos is centred on creating sanctuaries of fun and vibrancy, little pockets of sunshine in the everyday. Spaces and experiences that allow guests to rediscover the playfulness of childhood, free from responsibility and routine. Even for a single night, colour becomes a form of care.
A Rebellion Against Neutrals
For too long, hospitality design has existed in shades of beige and grey: safe, subdued, and soulless. The tide is turning. Colour is returning to interiors, packaging, and lifestyle design. It is not about kitsch; it is about character.
At The House of Pineapple™, our collections are a love letter to this revival of colour. Joyful, modern, and unapologetically bold, they remind us that feeling good is the ultimate expression of luxury.
Whether you are outfitting a single villa or an entire portfolio of properties, we are here to help you create an unforgettable guest experience while making hosting simpler and more enjoyable. Attention to detail and functionality are key to elevating every stay, and we invite you to explore our collection and join The House of Pineapple™ family in redefining luxury hospitality, one detail at a time.
We are always delighted to hear from our hosts as we continue to expand our range. Contact us at info@thehouseofpineapple.com to collaborate, share feedback, or discover how we can help your property stand out.
Remember, you are not just renting a space; you are creating memories.
