In 1898, the National Botanical Garden was laid out on the shore of Lake Victoria with over 300 tree species. It nurtured the first tea tree seedlings from India, in 1923 the beginning of Uganda’s tea industry. It is worth visiting its variety of enormous trees, the sighting of several monkey species and many birds, including the African grey parrot, which can be heard calling as you walk around. To make the most of your visit, it is worthwhile paying for a guide.
Had another nice stay at Pineapple guest house. Staff are very helpful, wonderful showers, comfy bed and can make own hot drink in the room and nice and clean. Very good breakfast.
A true oasis in Entebbe with excellent facilities, food , staff and welcome. Beautiful property with exceptionally well maintained gardens and pool.

Wonderful garden and lovely rooms. A fantastic place to spend a few days. Excellent staff and a warm, welocoming ambience. Dinner is served very early, but there is a nearby restaurant. It is quite far from the town itself.
Our stay was really good especially thanks to the staff. The garden is full of birds and so peaceful and the swimming pool is really a “plus”.
I had the best stay at Pineapple, me and hubby will definitely be returning.
We had a lovely stay at the pineapple inn and would happily stay there again. The rooms vary in size, with the smallest room being quite small but the whole facility is excellent. Overall we had a fantastic stay. We would highly recommend it for anyone visiting Entebbe. .
This is the my second visit to the Pineapple and it was just as good as I remember from last October 2022. The staff are amazing and willing to bend over backwards to assist their guests. I have stayed in the cottage twice and can recommend this option if you like your solitude and prefer…
The whole guesthouse is decorated tastefully & surrounded by beautiful gardens. We also loved the pool area. Food was amazing & we also got a birthday cake :). Airport transfer worked very well!
“I have travelled all over the world but Pineapple Guesthouse stands out as the best guesthouse I have stayed in. Apart from being cosy, with a big pool and and a very special huge garden, it is the staff that bring it to a five star level. Dora, Ellen, Derrick and Sharon do it all.…
