Coastal Window Treatment Ideas for Effortless Beach House Style

|

Whether you live just steps from the sand or simply want to bring the coastal charm indoors, your window treatments play a key role in creating a laid-back, breezy aesthetic. At Bumble Bee Blinds, we help homeowners across Myrtle Beach, North Myrtle Beach, Atlantic Beach, Conway, Carolina Forest, Socastee, Murrells Inlet, Garden City, Pawleys Island, Litchfield Beach and Surfside Beach design their ideal coastal retreat—no matter how close (or far) you are from the shoreline.


🐚 What Is Coastal Style?

The coastal aesthetic celebrates relaxation, simplicity, and nature. Inspired by beachfront living along the Grand Strand, this design style favors:

  • 🏖️ Light and neutral tones like sand, driftwood, and sky blue
  • 🌿 Natural textures such as linen, bamboo, and rattan
  • 🌀 Simple silhouettes and airy fabrics that invite sunlight in
  • 🌊 Ocean-inspired palettes that reflect coastal serenity

Whether you're styling a beach condo in Surfside Beach, a family home in Carolina Forest, or a rental property in Pawleys Island, coastal window treatments complete the look with elegance and ease.
