Step 1 of 4

Lay it out

Spread the hut, ropes and sand anchors flat on the sand in an X shape.

Windy day?

Chill Hut has been tested in 40km/h winds when properly set up.

Face the opening into the wind so air flows through. Fill the anchors right up, and in strong wind bury them and angle the poles slightly into the breeze.

In the bag

  • The hut, with UPF 50+ fabric
  • 2 poles
  • Ropes and sand anchors
  • Water-resistant canvas carry bag

Love my Chill Hut! It's so light to carry and is strong enough to easily withstand the afternoon wind here in Australia! Thank you!

Recently purchased my first ChillHut and by far the best beach shade I have tried. Setup is simple and the convenient and useful carry bag it comes in is so light my little girl can carry, it also makes the trips to and from the car so easy.

Tamika Kennedy Google review

Great beach sunshade – easy to set up, lightweight, and perfect for families and couples. Stays stable in wind and provides excellent sun protection. Highly recommended!

Mi K Google review

We were looking for an easier and lighter option than the cool cabanas and what can I say… the chill hut hits those criteria on the head. So light, so easy to set up and such cool designs. And you can even use it as an awning for your car. So happy we found that online. Great customer service too!!!

Jesko Google review

Love our chillhut! So easy to set up and compact and light which makes carrying it around easier than our cabana.

Asher Mannetje Google review

By far the easiest and lightest beach shade i've ever used. I now have two chill huts and absolutely love them both.

So good!! Cooler than a Cabana yeah :-)

Carl Jackson Google review

I love my chill hut! We take it with us everywhere (beach, lake, park) and is so easy to set up and take down. The best part is that it protect from the strong UV in New Zealand and also the colours! Would highly recommend.

Hollie Oswald Google review

Absolutely brilliant products, highly recommend to anyone looking for a lightweight and easy to set up beach solution rather than a cumbersome standard gazebo!

Light, protective, and perfect for hot beach days! The Chillhut is a lifesaver – super lightweight, easy to carry, and gives great shade.

Maayan Pardo Google review

Stashed my Chill Hut in my suitcase from NZ to Canada and it comes with me on all our adventures across BC, wouldn't leave home without it. So versatile and easy to put up, all you need is a bit of creativity and you can unlock quality sun protection just about anywhere!

Assembled on the Sunshine Coast, by George.

I put every Chill Hut together by hand here on the Sunshine Coast, using parts from specialist suppliers. Built by someone who lives at the beach, for people who live at the beach.

If yours isn't right for you, send it back within 30 days for a refund.

Frequently asked questions

How much shade do I actually get?
  • Small: 2.1m × 1.5m
  • Medium: 2.1m × 2.1m
  • Large: 3m × 3m

Fabric stretches when set up, so you get even more shade.
The two pole design lets you angle it with the sun, giving better coverage morning and afternoon, not just at midday.

Will it actually blow away?

No. Chill Hut has been tested in 40km/h winds when properly set up.

Is it actually that light?
  • Small: 1.8kg
  • Medium: 2.2kg
  • Large: 2.8kg

The Medium packs down to 53 × 15 × 15cm. Way smaller than a standard cabana.

How long does it take to set up?

One person. Two minutes. Done.

Will it fit in my car?

Yes. The Medium packs down to 53 × 15 × 15cm, compact enough to fit easily in most cars.

30-day money-back guarantee. Not right for you? Send it back within 30 days for a full refund. Return postage is on you, and the hut needs to come back in resaleable condition.

If anything arrives damaged, faulty, incomplete or not as described, we will replace or refund it.

To start a return, contact us.

Is it possible to add more poles?

Of course! There is an option to purchase separate poles in addition to the kit. Adding a second pair lifts the back of the Hut, so you get more room to sit underneath. The shaded area stays the same. Our Huts are designed to give great shade and hold strong in the wind with just two poles, so extra poles aren't necessary, but they're a nice upgrade if you want more headroom.
