Summer is almost here and we are so fortunate to live in a country boasting so many beautiful Blue Flag beaches!
Nothing quite beats a holiday by the beach, but the last thing you’d want in the way of your summer vibes is a bad window treatment.
That’s why we’ve put together some tips to help you choose the best furnishing for the window treatments of your beach abode.
The Checklist
- Make sure you keep your beach view and are able to allow that brilliant sea breeze into your house.
- Choose a material that will not erode or rust from the humidity of said brilliant sea breeze. [This means that anything wooden or aluminium is no longer an option.]
- Protect the interiors of your home from the fading effects of harsh sunlight.
The Perfect Window Treatment Options for the Beach
Roller Blinds
Choose from a range of fabric colours and transparency levels to get the perfect mix of glare protection, while still being able to roll up the blinds when you want to bask in the magnificent views.

PVC shutters
You can’t match the beach look better than with a classic white shutter. Adjust the shutters throughout the day as you decide when to let in the sun and wind.

Bamboo Blinds
If you just can’t let go of your love for the look and feel of wood, enjoy all the natural beauty of bamboo blinds without the worries of what the beach climate can do to your wood. These are available in both Venetian and roller blinds, allowing you to choose the kind of control you need.
