Transform your pool area with a cabana

If you’re designing or renovating an outdoor space, there’s no better way to enhance your pool area than with a Cabana.

Both practical and stylish, this covered area is perfect for entertaining family & friends, and relaxing after a few laps.

Here are four key features to consider when planning a pool cabana.

1. Include as much glass as possible

Double glass doors & sidelights are a fantastic (and very popular) addition to your cabana, creating a ‘wall of glass’ along the front of the Cabana. Not only does this make the cabana light & bright inside, it creates a great ‘supervision’ spot for parents.

2. Comfortable Seating

Add some comfortable lounges to make the Cabana the perfect place to relax. Opt for thick, durable materials that can easily be wiped down, and will be durable enough for post-swim relaxing! Ottomans are another great way to add more seating to the Cabana.

3. Connect to services

Your cabana can be easily connected to services after it is installed. This will allow you to add lighting, a bar fridge + sink and even a bathroom!

4. Keep Refreshments Handy

Some shelving, cupboards and a mini sink are all you need to create a refreshments bar in your Pool Cabana. Entertaining is about to become a breeze!

5. Section with an internal wall

Adding an internal wall is an excellent way to create a separate storage area for pool equipment and toys. You can also add an external access door like Alison has in her Cabana.

6. Create a changing room 

This can be as simple as adding a dividing curtain to your cabana, creating a private space to quickly change right by the pool. Add some hooks for hat storage, and shelving for spare towels and you’re all set!
