So... What is a Palapa?
A Palapa (a Spanish word of Tagalog origin, meaning "petiol of the palm leaf") is an open-sided dwelling with a thatched roof made of dried palm leaves. It is very useful in hot weather and, therefore, very common on Mexican beaches and deserts. It is one of the most important architectural contributions of West Mexican culture.

Are You Ready For A Year Round Tropical Vacation With Your Own Backyard Palapa?
Adding a Palapa to your landscape gives you the perfect place dedicated to just kicking back from your stressful day to day activities. Enjoyment For The Entire Family.
While you can’t bring a beach to your backyard (we've actually built a backyard beach) you can now add a bit of paradise and comfort to your backyard with a tropical Mexican style Palapa!
Tiki Huts, also known as Palapas, are the perfect structure to add an outdoor kitchen. Let us add a little sauce in the form of quality audio and video and Presto... you'll become the envy of your neighborhood.
Luxury Palapas specializes in building custom authentic palapas, for your family & friends to enjoy! Picture relaxing all year long, underneath the cool shade of your own slice of paradise, entertaining or just hanging out with family.
We strongly believe in building your palapa using the same materials that you will find on a tropical beach. We import our handwoven thatch from Mexico, and use red cedar wood to build the structure. Cedar wood is perfect, as it’s extremely durable, and able to withstand our ever changing Texas weather.
While our standard Palapa thatch has a 10 year warranty, we can easily double the warranty to 20 years with our durable synthetic Palapa roof thatch. You can learn more here.

How Much Will My Palapa/Tiki Hut Cost?
We get this question a lot. The best answer is it all depends on size and the materials you choose. We know that is a super simple answer, but read on.
It also depends on location and difficulty, but the least expensive material is our standard red cedar posts which are proven to have a long life and are insect resistant. This is very important, being that we are in a coastal community. Our standard Mexican palm thatch which we import directly from Mexico, has a 10 year warranty.
From there, you could upgrade to different styles and materials like African reed thatch or other exotic materials which add cost, but don't necessarily improve life expectancy.
At Luxury Palapas, we offer options like outdoor kitchens, custom bars, outdoor furniture, electrical wiring for lights, ceiling fans & TV's.
As you can see... its just about impossible to say your tiki bar will cost this much, without actually speaking with you. We've built thousands of palapas & tiki huts throughout Texas... so if it's experience you want, we have it. After that, most customers want to know that their construction will last, and that's why we offer a 10 year warranty on all standard materials.
The very best thing you can do is just call us... 832-310-462 or click to our question form to contact us about your project. We respond quickly.

Palapas made from African Reed thatch are made from cape reed. It’s known for the uniform look it creates. Unlike Mexican thatch that is flexible, reed is extremely sturdy, that lays flat. It is perfect for use in Palapas as it’s distinctive rows look neat & clean for a nice custom profile.

Because of popular demand, Luxury Palapas now offers synthetic thatch roofs for palapas, gazebos, pavilions and tiki huts. The synthetic hatch we use is very close in color and very closely resembles it’s equivalent natural Mexican thatch. Synthetic thatch material could last longer, but may be more expensive.
