You can relax in the sunshine, or you can take it up a notch and relax in an Amazon hammock. Whether you plan to tie one up between two towering trees at a campsite or set up a hammock stand for a not-so-faraway-getaway in your backyard oasis, swinging in the cool breeze is never a bad idea.
Options are endless for this simple product. Choose a hammock that fits your needs based on size, color and fabric. We found the best Amazon hammocks that will not only be on your doorstep in a jiffy (thanks, Prime membership!), but they’ll remind you to take some self-care time for yourself.
Compact Hammock
Are you outdoorsy? Find an Amazon hammock that fits your lifestyle—literally. This compact hammock has its own carrying pouch for convenient camping and light travel. Despite its very packable size, this hammock is built for two and holds up to 500 pounds. Hoist it to two trees and start lounging!
“Such a good hammock!! Tons of space and very durable,” writes Krista, a five-star reviewer. “Super easy to put back in the pouch, which is not usual for most products that claim they can.”
Quilted Hammock
If you love the bright colors of a lounge chair but want to take your patio seating to the next level, we suggest this quilted hammock with spreader bars. It attaches easily to a hammock stand for a quick setup. Sit on it like a porch swing or take a breather and lie down. Either way, it’s easy to rock your way to relaxation. Plus, it’s built for two, so feel free to invite a partner or enjoy the extra room all to yourself.
Patty H., a verified purchaser, writes, “I already had the metal stand, but needed an updated hammock after the Arizona sun dry-rotted my old one. This fit the stand perfectly and made everything look brand new! The hammock is colorful, comfy and holds up well in sun and rain.”
Fringed Hammock
Not every Amazon hammock has to look like you’re roughing it in the wilderness. This fringed double hammock looks like a beautifully draped throw blanket, not a heavy-duty spot for a nap. It’s sturdy enough for a camping expedition or an outdoor picnic, but we like it as additional patio seating too.
Hammock with Mosquito Netting
Nobody invited mosquitos to the party but they showed up anyway. Don’t let those pesky buggers get in the way of your much-deserved rest time. This comfy hammock with mosquito netting zips up for bite-free lounging that shades from the sun. Furthermore, we love the inside pocket for storing your phone, wallet and other small necessities.
“Easy to set up, super durable and comfortable material!” shares Melanie Stevens, a five-star reviewer. “The bug netting is great and keeps the bugs at bay, plus prevents leaves from falling on me. The pockets are super handy too!”
Hammock with Stand
At first glance, it’s a cute, colorful hammock on a stand—but it’s the details that count. For starters, we love the curved bar design that adds to the comfort level. Then, there’s the detachable pillow for longer lounging in the sun (or shade, depending on your preference). This Amazon hammock is easy to assemble, and you can pack it all up in the included bags and take it to the campsite, beach or park.
Two-in-One Hammock
Not sure if you want a hammock or a chair to add to your backyard oasis? Well, no need to decide with this convertible hammock. Use this as a traditional hammock bed (built for two) or as a single seat with an extendable stand. Even better? Customize it with different colors and pattern options.
“I am in love with this hammock,” shares verified purchaser, Arlyn. “It’s built of quality and its material is excellent. The touch of wood gives it a luxurious and fine style. The versatility of being able to change it from a seat to a hammock is an option that you can adapt to any space, whether interior or exterior.”
Kids Swinging Tent
If you thought your kids were excited about hanging out in a regular tent when they went “camping” in the backyard, wait until they get a load of this swinging tent they can share with a friend or two. Kids can enjoy it as a nesting pod or open it up as a swing seat. Install it on a sturdy, low-hanging branch, and have an adventure.
Hammock Swing Chair
Some hammocks lull you into a deep sleep, but what if you want to curl up with a good book or even have a comfortable conversation with someone? While this attractive woven hammock skews more toward a hanging chair than a traditional Amazon hammock, we don’t think you’ll mind settling into its comfiness. Plus, it comes in nine colors so you can relax in style.
“This is without a doubt the most comfy place I have ever sat,” says Kim B., a five-star reviewer. “I have severe back pain that can be quite disabling at times, but when I sit in this hammock chair, my back pain completely disappears while I am in it. I love this chair and would sit in it all day if I could!”
Rope Hammock
It doesn’t get more old-school than this rope hammock. If you want to feel like you’re on a deserted island—but within a reasonable distance of snacks and cool beverages—try this one on for size. Speaking of size, stretch this one out first before taking a nap.
Verified buyer, David Danner, shares, “Soft cotton rope lets you relax in your hammock and wide enough to feel safe from tumbling out. This is our second Pawleys Island hammock—the first we picked up over a decade ago and lasted a long time.”
Colorful Hammock
This looks more like a colorful beach towel than a cotton hammock, but rest assured, it can hold up to 450 pounds. Moreover, it’s suitable for indoors or outdoors. We love that it folds up and tucks into a matching drawstring bag to accompany you on vacations and camping trips.
“I wish I would have bought this sooner,” writes verified purchaser, Stacey. “It’s perfect for my yard, easy to assemble and very comfortable. I love the quality of the fabric.”
Kids’ Hammock
Sure, there’s room on your Amazon hammock for a little one (or two) to join you, but how about giving them their own kid-sized hammock? Made from tear-proof nylon, this is easy to set up—in under a minute, the brand promises—and adjusts for height. It’s ideal for backyard camping or even installed under a tall, lofted bed for the best hangout spot ever.
Macrame Hammock Chair
This boho-chic macrame hammock chair looks like a decorative dream catcher. Sit on or even catch some zzz’s in its sturdy structure. Hang it from a spot in your favorite corner of the world, either inside or outside. This swinging chair comes in beige, light gray and white, so it will complement a variety of decor styles.
Hammock with Tablet Holder
We won’t judge if you keep your tablet handy as you relax. Instead, we’ll suggest this cozy hammock with a tablet holder for comfy scrolling or streaming while you swing. Find a sturdy place to set it up—preferably near a strong Wi-Fi connection—and enjoy your Amazon hammock.
Double Hammock
If you’ve passed on hammocks in the past for being too casual or too rugged, you’ll reconsider once you see this double hammock on a stand. It comes in nearly 20 different colors and patterns that resemble high-end patio pillows. Attach it to the stand and leave it on the porch all season, or pack it up in the handy included travel bag to tote around on your travels.
Robin Kirkorian, a verified purchaser, shares, “I’m so happy I bought this hammock. It is so comfy and it was easy to put together. It’s HUGE, so you can really relax and spread out while reading a book or just getting some sun!”
