Indoor Hammocks Are the Interior Upgrade We’re Stealing From Celebs

After a long winter, white sand and margaritas at swim-up bars are dancing in our heads. But if a beach vacay isn’t in the cards, the best hammocks for lounging, napping, or catching a breeze can stylishly bring the tropics to your own indoor and outdoor spaces. From a hand-crocheted double-size hammock to a lounger-shaped alternative, the hammocks you can find today are a stylish nod to island life and way more chic than the average beach towel.

Following in the footsteps of attractive rattan furniture (just look at Hilary Duff’s Los Angeles abode), hammocks are making their way indoors after quite a long time confined to outdoor spaces. We also think hammocks work just as well in an elegant living room as they do under a polished pergola. Design-forward varieties generally have two styles: bridge or gathered-end hammocks. The former has a hidden or exposed spreader bar, while the latter is less structured. Whether you’re looking for something to bring a bohemian feel to your space or turn your backyard into a faux Club Med, you’ll find what you’re looking for in our top picks.

Made in Nicaragua, this lightweight hammock was made for someone who’s always on the go. It’s handwoven with natural organic cotton, making it ideal to bring on for all of your adventures, and has a weight capacity of up to 350 pounds.

The secret to this double hammock is the textilene fabric, which is extra breathable, easy to clean, and quick-drying. We’d opt for the classic-looking striped options, which have us dreaming of summer days on the Amalfi Coast, but there are also botanical and geometric patterns available.

Its Brazilian teak frame gives this padded hammock a sculptural look, plus there’s no shortage of cushioning—meaning you’ll be able to spend hours comfortably lounging in the sun. The attached pillow makes it exceptionally comfy, and the weather- and fade-resistant Sunbrella fabric—in black-and-white or sand-and-white stripes—will hold for years of hangouts.

Copenhagen-based Ferm Living’s collection of home goods is known for style and versatility. Take this hand-braided hammock, which you can place in or outside your home. Buyers will also feel good about the materials, since it’s made from 100% recycled polyethylene terephthalate (a.k.a. PET) derived from post-consumer plastic.

The brainchild of luxury rug company Nanimarquina and acclaimed designer Ilse Crawford, the Wellbeing collection is nothing short of perfection. Our favorite design from said collection? The hammock, which is hand-spun using organic materials, sans dyes and toxins. The subtle design lets this piece work in just about any space. Thinking of hanging it outside? The matching tree straps won’t detract from the delicate, beachy vibe of the design.

You’ll want to lounge about in the patio, garden, or poolside for hours thanks to the cushioning support on this double-layer quilted hammock from Lazy Daze. It’s the ideal backyard fixture to prepare for sun-filled days ahead. We like that this neutral cream colorway will almost be like adding a white couch to your outdoor space, though several stylish striped silhouettes are also available.

ENO’s heavy-duty SuperNest Hammock is built to create the ultimate relaxation destination, whether you’re at home or hammock camping. With an easily packable 3D-contoured design that’s meant to provide advanced safety and stability, this model that’s beloved by hard-core hammockers is especially great if you’re looking to double-hammock with a buddy. Plus, if you do plan on bringing it along in the camper, you can easily clip on a bug net for protection from unwanted guests.

Handmade by artisans in the Yucatán Peninsula, this rope hammock features a woven cotton-nylon blend for comfort and breathability. While its design might look delicate, it has an impressive capacity to hold up to 550 pounds. We’re partial to the natural colorway that will give your space a classically bohemian feel, but there are eight other styles featuring brighter hues, should you be looking to bring in a pop of color.

Creating a stylish oasis indoors or out is easy with this hammock from Anthropologie. Adorned with crocheted edges and festive tassels, this sunny hammock will be the best place to lounge on a lazy afternoon or stargaze on clear summer nights. Thanks to its roomy interior, you can bring along your coziest blanket and a good book to help unwind.

Artisans in Nicaragua handcrafted this punchy hammock using a very specific kind of material: ethically sourced, organic cotton yarn, which is meant to be extra soft. The colorful tassels are almost too cute.

This is dubbed Yellow Leaf’s Signature for a reason: It’s a portable hammock, eco-friendly, and available in 13 colorways (you can even design your own custom style). Not to mention, Yellow Leaf has perfected its classic triple-weave construction, which utilizes 150,000 ultrasoft and quick-drying cotton loops to offer weightless support that doesn’t stretch or break. What more can you ask for?

With its spreader bar and basket-like seat, SunnyDaze Decor’s high-quality chair hammock is like a suspended beanbag chair made of the most durable material: polyester. First, it’s extremely comfortable-looking with not one but two plush pillows (one for under you and one behind your back), making it perfect for lounging about. Second, there’s a huge, slightly hidden pocket so that you don’t have to get up to grab what you need while you’re seated. Books? Check. Phone? Check. Snacks? Check.

If you’re looking for an option that will give your space extra seating and a playful flare for guests, opt for a hammock chair. This woven option can be mounted to the ceiling or freestanding in a metal frame depending on your personal preference.

Sunbrella fabric is a telltale sign that a hammock is designed with comfort in mind. The durable fabric is soft to the touch yet strong and sturdy to keep you secure—whether you’re hanging between trees or on the patio.
