Where can I get Authentic Mexican Hammocks online?

Question

I went to Mexico in January for a few weeks and I went to a Mayan village that had these great handmade mexican hammocks for sale and I bought one. I really like it and I wish I had bought more! Does anyone know of a website that sells authentic Mexican hammocks?

Answer 1

The sites that they have recommended are good, but if you purchase the hammock directly from the makers you'll be surprised by the price, it could be upt o double or triple the price you paid if you buy it from a dealer than directly here on the small towns.

Answer 2

mexico has internet? haha i dont think they sell sh.it online like us in the USA they make money the hard way

Answer 3

About Mexican hammocks, I was in the Yucatan peninsula in Dec. touring around some of the old Mayan sites. I took this tour to a Mayan village were the hammocks are made by women by hand. I bought 2 Mexican hammocks, which made for great Christmas gifts.

Of course everyone wanted one, and I wanted to get more. I also wanted to make sure they were authentic too.

There's lots of sites out there that sell hammocks, but they are the manufactured ones. I did find a site that sells the authentic hammocks, made by hand by Mayan women in their villages.

The women who make these hammocks get paid for their wares too which is cool so I was happy to know that !! Check out http://www.stylemexican.com for authentic Mexican hammocks while giving something back too.
