No Need to Mess Up Your Bed: These Are the Best Hammocks for Napping

After a frigid winter, we’re aching for white sand and margaritas at swim-up bars. But if a beach vacay isn’t in the cards at the moment, the best hammock for lounging, napping, or catching a breeze can safely bring the tropics home. From a hand-crocheted double-size hammock to a lounger-shaped alternative, the hammocks on offer today are a stylish nod to island life and way more chic than the average beach towel. 

Following in rattan furniture’s footsteps, hammocks are making their way indoors after quite a long time in outdoor spaces. (Sorry, if you’re looking for a camping hammock or something for a long backpacking trip, this is not your list!) Also like rattan and wicker, hammocks work just as well in an elegant living room as they do under a polished pergola. These are our top picks.
