About our Hammocks

At Hammock Shop a specific range of high-quality hammocks have been handpicked to provide a hammock for everyone, whatever your needs. Our hammocks come from La Siesta in Germany and Cielo Hammocks in Mexico. Both specialist hammock companies who has been working solely on hammocks since 1991 & 2004 respectively.

La Siesta works very closely to enhance production, quality and design in Colombia and Brazil among other places - with stringent manufacturing and quality control standards they produce only the best quality hammocks for your pleasure and enjoyment with a strong focus on environmental and social responsibility.

Cielo Hammocks supply our range of Mexican hammocks, which are 100% handwoven in the state of Yucatán. Hammocks are woven in small Mayan communities providing sustainable work opportunities with a strong focus on giving back to the communities through their Cielo Foundation charity.
