Pool chairs and comfy chaise lounges are a poolside essential that can really transform a backyard into a relaxing summer lounge oasis. We’ve pulled together some of the freshest and best modern poolside seaters for sun lounging and enjoying the last of August summer paradise.
In-Pool Lounging
This colonial Bermuda residence masters the summer look with bright blues that pop against a classic white. We love how this old tropical home meets new age with ’90’s striped beach chairs in a sleek modern pool. Everything is then tied neatly together with a camel umbrella, matching table chairs, and a wooden deck. This would be the first place we’d book for our next vacation!
You know when you’re sun lounging by the pool but then get too hot and have to take a dip (and repeat)? Why not have the best of both worlds and place your water tolerable lounge chairs actually in the pool? This modern touch is perfect for shallow infinity pools and takes your pool experience up a whole new level.
Have a little creative fun with pool shape and design with an in-pool lounge. Non-conventional pool designs are fun but keep it polished with simple techniques like matching your cushions to the floor tiling like what’s been done here.
Summer is all about bright sunny colours and this pool set up executes it perfectly. Mix and match prints and shades like what’s been done here with blue Moroccan inspired tiles, printed roller pillows, and bright lemonade yellow striped pool towels. To avoid overwhelming, keep your base cushions plain and simple like this light grey. But the best part of this bright set up? The fabulous fringe edged umbrella!
Dip your feet in the pool and watch the sunset with these in-pool loungers. Setting up multiple chaises in a row invites a whole family or group of friends to enjoy and relax together rather than just a general duo seating area.
Have a cold one on these in-pool muskoka style chairs. The white paint keeps these chairs looking clean and modern over traditional wood and also highlights the bright blue colour of the pool.
Classic Style
These luxury lounge chairs make this backyard the ultimate oasis. With plush navy blue cushions and nautical themed throw pillows, these pool chairs look ultra relaxing. The side table pullout and frame wheels give these loungers an extra touch of utility and functionality that has us completely sold.
Inspired by the Hamptons, this summer home neatly lines up simple but elegant lounge chairs on luscious green grass by the pool. The ruffled white umbrellas add a playful touch that makes us want to lounge in this shaded space after an afternoon playing golf.
Double up on your pool seating with duo seater chaise lounges. This Italian home creates the perfect summer romance hotspot here and we love the robin egg shell blue cushioning to match the pool water.
Imagine the backyard barbecues and pool parties you could have here! The wooden patio furniture gives this backyard a cozy private feel and the bright blue cushions tie in outer elements like the pool and sky together. What’s great about this outdoor seating is that the cushions are easily changeable for colour scheme switch ups.
Trendy
Instagram-ify your pool with trendy flamingo pink pool chairs and a simple umbrella. Styling your pool doesn’t have to take much. A minimalistic approach can be just as eye catching.
This South African home is the definition of a summer home. The black and white striped bean bag pool loungers look so comfortable facing the shallow infinity pool and distant ocean view. A whicker chair on the porch also adds to the lazy summer vibes of this exterior paradise.
Tropical
This stunning beach side home has an infinity pool designed for lap swimming and a gorgeous cabana lounge area. The idea here in design was to ensure the pool or sitting area avoids impeding the spectacular view of the beach below. To minimize pool structure, the cabana is completely open with just a light bamboo roof for protective shade for loungers below.
Who says pool loungers have to be on the floor? We love this zen styled pool backyard with it’s bohemian hanging hammocks and bright orange throw pillows. The dark wooden fencing enclosing this area gives the pool area a private and calming type feel, perfect for some yoga on the deck or a mediation session in the hammocks.
Modern
When your view is this amazing, you do not want anything to take away from it. Keep it open and simple with plain black loungers–sans distracting embellishments or accessories.
We love these modern black swirl shaped pool loungers that spice up an otherwise boring backyard. The swirly shape keeps things interesting but an all black material makes this pool set up crisp and classy still. The curved shape of the chairs curve around the natural shape of the body creating an ultra-comfortable lounging experience.
We love these fun banana rocker shape pool loungers. The fun shape is unique and bold enough that you don’t need any other patio furniture to clutter up your pool side . The light wood and cream coloured cushioning are also give this outdoor space a lake side cottage vibe along the darker bottomed pool and luscious greenery.
Rounded
Make a statement by adding one bold focus piece in a plain area like these fun circle lounges. If you have fencing or walls surrounding your backyard pool, your outdoor space can tend to feel overly closed off. The colourful rounded seaters immediately softens up this pool space though keeping it fun.
Chairs are not the only pool side lounge options. A rounded white whicker pool hut is perfect for taking an outdoor nap and the rich purple textile adds an unexpected pop of colour for this backyard.
Indoor
For an indoor pool, we love how this home contrasts bright cream coloured lounge chaises with crisp black and white interiors. We love how the chairs are strategically placed to still have full sun access from the open windows so that you can enjoy year round pool lounging.
