Qipi Beach Cabana 6 x 6: A Portable Canopy Shelter for Relaxing Outdoors

Yerddy M. LanfrancoYerddy M. Lanfranco: Beautiful and sleek and so easy to carry and set up. I live by the beach and need something portable and easy to install at the beach in order to enjoy the beach and the water without getting burn at the sun.

Taylor: This tent is an actual time and life saver. It is so easy to put up/tear down. The shade panel is easy to move with the sun. I think it took me alone 6 mins max to put this tent up. Well worth it!

ElleElle: The canopy was very easy to put up and held very well when wind gust came by. There were other pop ups that were blowing sideways and umbrellas turning inside out, but the stability of this canopy was great, we had no issues. It was very easy to put up and take down. The pockets came in handy also. They hold a large bottle of sunscreen. I did have the side shade up also and that worked out great with keeping the cooler in the shade. It is well built and very happy with purchase. Also the pole had grooves like a screw and it went in the sand easy and held very firm.

slp430: We are currently at the beach for the inaugural trip with this umbrella and it’s fantastic. We have some high winds and other umbrellas are falling over or turning inside out. This thing is barely budging. Seriously, it’s not even flapping in the wind. It was super simple to put up and seems very well made. Would buy again, hands down. In fact, several friends currently on Amazon looking to have another one shipped to the beach house. It’s not huge but 3 adults can comfortably fit in the shade without using the additional wall flap. Would have more shade if we put that up. Don’t debate, just buy it.

Only cons, and they are minor, are that the Velcro strap is easy to lose because it’s not attached and also I wish the handle to screw the pole into the sand was attached/folded down (again because I’m afraid we might lose it).

T. CollT. Coll: This is worth 5 stars overall for stability in wind once assembled but it’s just a *bit* tricky to assemble.

First of all, it really does require 2 people or else it’s going to be at least significantly more difficult with one.

It’s basically an umbrella, which is good for set up. Other “cabanas” can be kind of tents, with multiple parts and or complicated set ups. But this is basically like deploying an umbrella. A few tricky points and tips below.

You’ll want to bury it in the sand farther than the directions say (the blue line on the bottom pole). Especially if it’s at all windy. The bottom pole has a screw to screw into the sand instead of digging a hole. It comes with a small rod that you put through the two button holes that later lock the top part in place. The small rod is used as a handle to screw the bottom into the sand. Again go past the blue line.

The pictured finished “cabana” shown was assembled on a day quite windy (10-20 mph winds) and stood steady for the whole day without further attention. Note, the little table doesn’t come with this that was purchased separately.

As I said it’s easy enough but for two...
