Perhaps one of the most universally-loved travel experiences is a quiet weekend at the beach, filled with morning cups of coffee enjoyed on the patio of a sun-drenched cottage and hours spent reading, sprawled across nautically striped chairs. While it may only be April and the season of beach outings is still several weeks away, if you’re missing the undeniable charm of a coastal adventure, then it may help to channel the impeccable taste of a Cape Cod seaside home within your very own abode.
Amazon has long been the go-to destination for all things style and travel, but the shopper-loved retailer is also well-stocked with beachy home decor that can instantly transform your plain apartment or house that might be lacking in personality into something out of an Elin Hilderbrand novel.
