Favorite Finishes for Beach House Decor
Luxury Vinyl Tile
Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) is made to look like hardwood floor, but with additional durability – meaning it stands up to water, pets, kids, and the occasional sloppy house guest! Setting the whole tone for the house and allowing you to not worry about ruining the floors, these are a must-have for our beach house decor. We are obsessed with those made to mimic character grade 5” white oak with Bona natural finish for our beach house decor.
Moroccan Tile
Pops of fun tile in smaller rooms such as baths or laundry are a great way to add color and an eclectic vibe, but in a way that will not be overwhelming or that you would quickly get sick of. This great tile acts as a neutral with the gray and cream shade and will match any beach house decor.

Bold Wallpaper
A beach house or second home is an opportunity to make bolder statements that you may not feel comfortable to make in your primary residence. Beach house decor often has a more eclectic vibe than a primary residence, and you may have less fear of becoming sick of a bold choice. A fun way to add a vibrant, beach look that is easier to change as trends and tastes evolve is through an accent, such as wallpaper, paint, or throw pillows. This offers an inexpensive way to achieve a fun feel without the fear of over-commitment.
Light Fixtures for your Beach House Decor
Save: Woven Globe Pendant
Think of light fixtures as the jewelry of your beach house decor. There are so many great options and finishes available. We are digging natural, pendant lights that mirror the materials you may find naturally occurring outdoors at your beach house. Hanging lights will bring drama and distinction to every room in your coastal home.
Splurge: Woven Globe Pendant
The texture of rattan meets sunbleached flair. Made with a powdercoated steel frame and weather-friendly wicker, this is great on your patio or looks fabulous indoors, too.
Comfy Furnishings for your Beach House Decor
Save: Striped Area Rug
Area rugs on top of great wood flooring can provide warmth and a pop of color to your beach house decor. The big benefit over carpeting is that they can be cleaned easily and replaced without too large of an expense or work. There are so many gorgeous indoor/outdoor options that are great for sandy little feet and paws.
Splurge: Striped Area Rug
This is the most beautiful area rug, if you want that beachy look. We love the jute and navy stripe in this classic rug that will go with anything!
Save: Durable, Slipcovered Sectional
It may sound crazy, but nothing screams cool, coastal, beach house decor like a white couch. If you, too, have a water dog, popsicle covered children, or messy husband you are probably saying, “WHAT?” White couches are classic, they go with everything and by changing out the throw pillows and blankets you can change the entire look of the room.
Cover for Sectional
Pick up some extra slipcovers, because we know you will need them. Look for a couch that is made of stain repellent material, that is slipcovered so you can easily wash, bleach, or even replace it after wear.
Splurge: Durable, Slipcovered Sectional
This sectional screams beach house decor, with its generous, wide-track arms, a low and deep silhouette, and tailored high-performance slipcovers. This looks like a relaxed, casual beach house.
