Hammocks are not the same as sitting on a couch or a sofa, but involve reclining and relaxing without any distractions or any need to get away. The experience and the time together helps resolve differences and distances that crop up over time and a new feeling of belonging together develops. Gradually this hammock time together becomes a ritual and something to look forward to.

The question of which type of hammock will be able to take the weight of a couple is easily answered. Mayan or Mexican hammocks come in queen sizes that are even called the couples’ hammock. The light weave is deceptive since they are woven to be very strong and take heavy weights up to 250 kilograms, and can be as wide as 7 ft. This does not make it less portable because it can still be folded into a small bundle and taken for camps and outdoor picnics. The hammocks could be the rope woven ones or fabric hammocks, with the latter preferred for cooler places and the former considered more suitable for warmer areas since the loose weave allows ventilation or makes the hammock breathable. While hammocks without spreader bars are preferred by couples, hammocks that can be fitted with spreader bars are just as comfortable. Tied to a tree or fixed on a stand, couples’ hammocks can be accessorized as well with soft pillows, pockets, and synthetic tarps for protection from rain or the winter chill.

The sprang-weave Nicaraguan hammock is also extremely popular for couples. Made out of polyester yarn, it is more sturdy while looks exquisitely ornate with its crocheted edges and tassels in bright colors. Brazilain hammocks of larger dimensions are specially made for couples. Being tougher than all other hammock varieties, they are able to hold heavier couples as well.

Couples can use hammocks anywhere and everywhere, from their own garden and patio to the beach, the poolside or for camping. The idea is for couples to be together, utilize hammock time as bonding time and enjoy being close to strengthen their relationship even more.
