Papaya Barbados Hammock from Amazonas
Our Barbados Papaya Hammock for
1-2 people from Amazonas is a high-quality Brazilian hammock made in the traditional South American style.
South America is where hammocks first originated. The
Barbados is probably our best-selling hammock range as
it combines a larger size with a good price, making it
the ideal place for relaxed dreaming together or alone.
Supporting your Barbados Papaya hammock: If you
just buy the hammock itself, you will need to provide
a means to support the hammock yourself. At each end of
your Papaya hammock you will find a hard-wearing
loop, woven from the gathering of hammock threads. The
simplest do-it-yourself support is made from a piece of
rope, threaded through each end-loop, and then tied to
a tree, post or wall bracket. If you prefer to simplify
things, we stock a full range of easy to fit supports
- from free-standing hammock frames (ideal for the patio),
to tree ropes and wall fixings. For more info, or to order
your hammock supports separately, please see our hammock
support accessories page.
 Pillows:
You don't absolutely need a pillow to feel comfortable
on our Paradiso Hammock. However, our pillows
are specially made to enhance your hammock comfort and
are selected to exactly match the hammock pattern. enlarge image.
Protective Cover: Your hammock should be ok left
outside in the sun and the rain, but you can extend the
life of your hammock by putting on a cover when not in
use. Our hammock covers fit like a sock, slide up to the
top of the hammock support when the hammock is in use,
and simply slide down again over the hammock when the
hammock is not in use. Alternatively, you can easily bring
your hammock inside by unclipping it from its support.

How to lie in a hammock: The most important thing is to arrange the hammock's
suspension loops at head height, and only some 3m distant from each other, thereby
allowing the hammock to hang down in a deep arc. This then allows a diagonal lying
position, like a real Brazilian ("from corner to corner"), and not straight. This
keeps the back straight and is the secret of being able to lie comfortably and
relaxed for hours on end in a hammock. As wobbly wooden cross-pieces are intentionally
not used, one lies securely and without fear of falling out! In Brazil, hammocks
are still used as beds, as they always have been. This is the reason that they
are as wide and comfortable as a bed! Even if you are only going to use your hammock
for relaxation, you should still try to adopt the Brazilian way of lying: Contrary
to European ideas, hammocks are not hung taut.
Do I need hammock accessories? If you just buy the hammock itself, you
will need to provide a means to support the hammock yourself. At each end of your
hammock you will find a hard-wearing loop, woven from the gathering of hammock
threads. The simplest do-it-yourself support is made from a piece of rope, threaded
through each end-loop, and then tied to a tree, post or wall bracket. If you prefer
to simplify things, we stock a full range of easy to fit supports - from free-standing
hammock frames (ideal for the patio), to tree ropes and wall fixings. We also
stock matching pillows and hammock covers, ideal for prolonging the life of your
hammock if you keep it permanently outside.
