What Are Coastal Window Treatments?

Coastal window treatments are designed to beat heat, humidity, and glare and provide UV protection, while preserving your view to the outside. They are made from materials that are optimized for wet climates.

They come with colors and textures that complement your beach home’s interior design and seaside look. For example, a lightweight blind with a palette of blue and white will harmonize with coastal elements, such as driftwood and shells.

Considerations for Choosing Coastal Window Treatments

  • Coastal Style: Want to give a heightened touch of coastal style to your beach home? Buy a tall, elegant, tailored pleat drapery in a fair, neutral color such as a white sand tone. For a touch of visual interest, choose a fabric with subtle patterns like east-west stripes. If you want to create a contrast to ground the bright scene, go with black drapery hardware.
  • Humidity Level: Check the humidity level inside and in the surroundings of your beach home. To cope with higher moisture, we recommend the best quality faux wood blinds. 
  • Day and Night Option: If you want to get ample light from the upper part of the window while maintaining privacy from the lower part in your beach house, dual day and night fabric blinds are the best option. 
  • Kid Safety: No cords, no strangulation hazard! If you have kids or pets at your coastal house, we strongly recommend a cordless kid-safe window cover.
  • Lower Maintenance Costs: To minimize cleaning costs of your coastal window coverings, go with blinds having vertical or horizontal slats.
  • Valance: Consider a matching valance to decorate and protect your window covers from the coastal elements.
  • Care: Don’t scrub the fabrics when cleaning.

Best Beach Home Window Covers for View, Privacy, and Light

Moisture-Resistant Faux Wood Blinds

As a beach house is located closer to water, one of the primary concerns when choosing window treatments is protection from water damage. If moisture-resistance and durability is your top priority, go with faux wood blinds with 2” slats.

Faux wood is a much better alternative to real wood in damper environments. Also, they are less prone to warping, fading, cracking, peeling, and chipping. They exude a beachy feel and can be thrown open to welcome in the refreshing sea breeze.

Plus they are one of the most budget saving window coverings for beach homes. 

Damp-proof Sheer Light Filtering Shades

Want to cover the west-facing windows of your beach house? Want your new blinds to reflect light and regulate sea breeze? Purchase lightweight, dainty, and pretty sheer light filtering shades.

They will provide your seaside lodge’s interior with plenty of sunlight and a sun-kissed glow and controlled breeze all day long. They also come with zebra elegance. Their elegant and playful look makes them a great choice for contemporary coastal setup.

Solar Blinds

Does your beach house in the US have south-facing windows that receive direct sunlight all day long? 

Solar blinds or solar roller shades would be an ideal option to reject UV rays, beat heat, and reduce glare. Plus they will provide privacy while maintaining your view to the outside.

These affordable blinds come with five popular opacity levels or openness factors: 1%, 3%, 5%, 10%, or 14%. The openness percentages vary based on the tightness of the fabric weave of these coastal sun shades. 

For maximum opacity and most privacy, choose a ‘solar roller’ with the tightest weave and a lighter, light reflecting color. A lighter color will also offer a better view-through.

For a blend of functionality and beauty, select designer-favorite screen shades for your seaside lodge. They work equally well in all spaces, but beach home owners usually prefer them for their sunrooms, porches, and terraces.

Drapery Panels

Want to add to the visual interest of your coastal home decor style? A drapery or a folded fabric curtain would be a better option with lots of colors, materials, and patterns.

An even better alternative is pairing your coastal striped drapery panel with classic Roman shade. Go with warm neutral colors to evoke sandy tones of the seashore. If you want to bring in the ocean hues indoors, we recommend a tropical blue color for your beach window treatment.

Bamboo or Woven Wood Blinds

As your beach home abounds in nature, infuse a natural texture and warmth into its white or light-colored interior. These hand-made window covers are made from natural fibers, like bamboo, exotic grasses, jute, and reeds.

Bamboo or woven wood shades offer various light control levels, ranging from ample light to total blackout (for sleeping quarters in your beach resort).

Superior weaving techniques minimize bowing, stretching, and breaking of these rustic window coverings for beach home settings.

Customization Options

  • Size: Treat all coast room windows, from extra small to extra-large.
  • Color: Greens, soft blues, neutrals, etc.
  • Fabric: Choose damp-resistant fabric with looser or tighter weave to get the desired amount of visibility (view), light control, and heat-prevention.
  • Design: Choose a rustic design with natural seaside textures.
  • Mount Style: Mount the shades inside (for a sleeker look) or outside the frame (to make your smaller window look bigger).

Measuring Instructions for DIYers

Measuring your window is a critical step in achieving the perfect fit. Before you start, consider the shape and configuration in your windows, such as angle tops, arches, skylights, and bay windows.

Here is a free DIY step-by-step guide on how to measure coastal window shades to get started.

  • For horizontal measurements, measure the top, middle, and bottom area of the window frame.
  • Record the shortest number to make sure the blinds will roll up and down the space without getting stuck.
  • Vertically, measure the left, middle, and right.
  • Go with the longest value since a little extra length is better.
  • For an inside mount, also measure the depth of the window opening.
