How to Choose the Right Hammock

Choosing the right hammock for the purpose you are using is important. Deciding on if you are using for travel purposes, and whether you want room to sleep two. 

For standard orders, or gift orders we suggest to you the Matrimonial (İki Kişilik) size as this is a generally standard size of Mayan Hammocks. Read below for our size guide.

 

Maya Hamaklari Size Guide

Jumbo (Battal Boy)
These are our largest hammocks and they are as good as it gets in the world of Mayan Hammocks. For one small family, the comfort is unmatched. The open weave design can open as wide as 14 feet. The weave is so tight, the hammock will feel like a solid piece of cloth and will also provide for a little extra weave to throw over your legs or wrap yourself like a cocoon on a breezy day. If you plan to spend a lot of time in your hammock or are replacing your bed then we recommend the jumbo size.

Body Length: 2.2 meters / 7.2 feet

Body Width: 3 meters / 10 feet

Total Size: 4.5 meters / 14 feet

Hamak Weight: 1900 grams / 4.13 lbs.

Weight Support: 400 kgs. / 869 lbs.

Family (Aile)
This is all the support you need for one to three people! Although If you plan to share your hammock space frequently with a friend or loved one or replace a hammock for a bed, then we recommend the Jumbo size. The weave is very dense and will remain almost solid when you lay in the hammock. If you are looking for the best overall value in comfort and size- the Family size is the way to go.

Body Length: 2.10 meters / 7 feet

Body Width: 2.5 meters / 8.3 feet

Total Size: 4 meters / 13.33 feet

Matrimonial (İki Kişilik)
This is a good size for taller people or a shorter couple. The woven bed expands as wide as 7 feet, yet is still compact enough to take along on a camping trip or picnic. The weave will open up more than in the larger sizes but will still remain very comfortable.

Body Length: 2.10 meters / 7 feet

Body Width: 2 meters / 6.6 feet

Total Size: 4.1 meters / 13.66 feet

Hamak Weight: 1250 grams / 2.71 lbs.

Medium (Orta)
The medium size is a great hammock for one person and could accommodate two people, however sleeping would be very cramped. A compact, lightweight model that still opens over 5 feet wide so it is suitable for camping and hiking. This is a great hammock to buy as an introduction to the Mayan style hammock but be warned: Once you feel the ultimate comfort that Mayan hammocks offer you may find you want to move up to a larger size.

Body Length: 2 meters / 6.7 feet

Body Width: 1.5 meters / 5 feet

Total Size: 4 meters / 13.33 feet

Hamak Weight: 1050 grams / 2.29 lbs.

Single (Tek)
Single size Mayan hammocks are great for use with young children old enough to use the hammock without supervision. Smaller children must ALWAYS be supervised. For adults this hammock may feel a little cramped so adults should consider a larger size. Single hammocks suitable for shorter single users.

Chair Hammock

If you do not have the space indoors or on your patio for a full size Mayan hammock, the chair hammock provides you a wonderful alternative. A perfect compliment for seating at a bar or lounge areas as well.
