For the ultimate beach house look, layer blue, stripes, fabrics and other decor that reminds you of the sea. Also, would you like to learn a little more?

So check out some tips that we have put together in this post for you, especially if you are considering purchasing an apartment in Praia Grande and then starting to decorate it!

Step by step for decorating a property on the beach:

1.Add some nautical stripes

A blue and white stripe is a new idea for decorating a property on the beach. So here are some ways to add a coastal living stripe to your space:

  • Add a beach-style striped throw to your bed or sofa;
  • For a coastal-chic living room, add a big, bold striped rug;
  • The hand-dyed rug and window treatments in this beach house-themed living room feature a stripe pattern that ties it all together.
  • Arrange your everyday bedding for a coastal setting with a striped blanket or striped linen pillows;
  • A simple stool in a blue and white stripe might be all you need to add some beachy style to your space.

2. Decoration with wicker, rattan or sisal

Materials like seagrass, rattan and sisal give a room an instant coastal feel. Furthermore, the materials are in the form of ropes and add texture to the space. As a result, they are perfect for the beach style effect you are looking for.

See some examples:

  • Bamboo and wicker bar stools add a coastal cottage feel to a modern kitchen;
  • The bed in the decoration of a property on the beach can be made with seagrass inserts on the headboard and footboard;
  • Additionally, woven wicker chairs are lightweight, inexpensive, and durable. So, group them with other beach house pieces like sea glass pendants, an island with a burgundy finish and a light blue sea foam wall. This way you will have a modern coastal space.
  • On the other hand, the classic bamboo and wicker chair with hanging basket is a great way to add a cool, coastal vibe to a room.
  • A coastal room might have two wicker armchairs and a two-tone sisal area rug to complete the beach-style look.

3. Add indigo for a modern coastal space

Blue is the essential color in beach theme decoration. Blue, light blue, navy and turquoise are just a few shades you can wear. But for a modern coastal look, I try the indigo shade.

After all, it is similar to navy blue, but a little richer and more saturated. As a result, the color blends beautifully with wood, white and black tones.

The indigo color is repeated in patterns on the chest and bedding of a bedroom with beach property decor. On the other hand, a modern coastal dining room features simple yet contemporary beach-themed wall decor in indigo tones.

Additionally, this textured tone is also found on pillows and the rug.

4. Decorating a property on the beach without blue

Although blue is the most typical color for beach house themed decor, you can skip the blue and still have a stylish beach-style space. For example, a calm living room with light shades of sand, cream, ivory, beige and soft pink.

Plus, natural wood tones, whites and a tropical print with bright lime green create a coastal living vibe. After all, a stylish living room interprets coastal modern using woven textures in natural tones and the color white.

Minimal amounts of blue are seen in this beach house theme. Instead, texture in the form of stripes, headboard paneling, and whitewashed brick are used to create a coastal-chic space.

5. Use and abuse covers to protect your furniture

For an easy and relaxed beach property decor, place covers on your sofas and chairs. White, khaki or beige cotton or linen protectors are the most themed for decorating a property on the beach.

Finally, finish off the modern coastal lifestyle with some themed throw pillows. Plus, white covers and crisp blue cushions create a modern, coastal-chic look.

Contemporary upholstered sofas are covered in ivory linen for a relaxing beach look. On the other hand, sofas with white cotton covers and slate blue linen covers can be removed and washed or swapped for heavier fabric covers in winter.

An elegant, modern coastal dining room features several beach style elements such as:

  • Indigo color
  • Wicker chairs
  • Whitewashed wooden table
  • Linen armchairs with sliding coverings on wheels.

6. Decorate the dining table

Even if you live far from the beach, you can recreate a lovely beach-themed dining experience by creating a coastal tablescape. To do this, all you need are a few tableware elements to layer with your everyday plates and cutlery. This is especially true if you are having a meal outdoors, for example, in a house with a pool.

7. More props

Finally, here are some more beach property decor items that you can add:

  • Beach style napkin rings;
  • Linen, striped or nautical napkins;
  • Candlesticks;
  • Chargers or a small nautical-style accent plate;
  • Hand-blown glasses that look like sea glass;
  • A table runner or tablecloth in a coastal look;
  • Wine glasses that look like sea glass;
  • Add items the color of the sea and/or sand;
  • Hammock as table runner;
  • Starfish;
  • Dishes inspired by the coast.
