tropical cabana

Seaside thatched shelter

A tropical cabana is a small, open-sided shelter typically found at beaches, resorts, or poolsides in warm climates.

Usually featuring a thatched roof or fabric canopy, it provides shade and a place to relax: We rented a tropical cabana and spent the afternoon sipping drinks by the water.

The term evokes leisure and vacation atmospheres.
