How to Choose Your Perfect Mayan Legacy Hammock
How to Choose Your Perfect Mayan Legacy Hammock
A simple guide to help you find the hammock that fits your lifestyle, your space, and your comfort needs.
🌿 Step 1: Choose Your Material
Traditional Cotton Hammock
Best for: indoor use, sleeping, camping, travel, light outdoor use with protection
The softest, coolest, most breathable weave we make. Thin cotton thread, woven into a fine net that gently conforms to your body. Lightweight and packs down small — perfect for travel. Needs to be taken down when not in use outdoors.
Outdoor Cotton Hammock
Best for: covered patios, verandas, decks, pool areas
Same traditional hand weave, with a slightly thicker cotton thread for extra durability. Still soft and breathable, built for more regular outdoor use.
EverRest Nylon Hammock
Best for: hammocks that live outdoors full-time
Designed and tested in Australia for sun, heat and outdoor conditions. Surprisingly soft — feels closer to cotton or silk. No need to take it down after every use. 3-year warranty.
Hammock Chair
Best for: reading corners, small spaces, sitting rather than lying down
Extra large design, made with Outdoor Cotton. Great for decks, verandas, or cozy indoor corners.
✨ Artisan Decorative Hammocks
Elegance handmade, stitch by stitch — where comfort meets beautiful design.
Traditional Mexican hammocks with hand-crocheted tassels or hand-knotted fringe, crafted by skilled artesanas using techniques passed down through generations. Not only supremely comfortable but also stunning statement pieces for your patio, veranda, deck or indoor space. Available in a beautiful range of colours and styles.
Handmade in Mexico | Up to 350kg | 12-month warranty
📏 Step 2: Choose Your Size
| Size | Best for | Capacity |
|---|---|---|
| Queen | One person who loves space, or two cosying up | Up to 200 kg |
| King | Two people, extra stretch room | Up to 250 kg |
| Jumbo (Limited Stock) | Family-size, maximum room | Up to 350 kg |
Quick tip: if you're torn between two sizes, go bigger. More room almost always means more comfort.
🪢 Step 3: How Will You Hang It?
- Trees or posts → a pair of ropes or tree straps
- No trees nearby → an adjustable hammock stand or frame
- Hammock chair → ceiling hook, solid beam, or hammock frame
