Qipi Beach Cabana - Easy to Set Up Canopy, Waterproof, Portable 6' x 6' Beach Shelter, Included Side Wall, Shade with UPF 50+ UV Protection, Ultimate Sun Umbrella - for Kids, Family & Friends

Best umbrellas on the beach! I can’t count how many people stopped to ask us where we bought our cabanas from. They’re easy to set up. One person can do it but it’s best served with a partner. We also purchased a small shovel to fill the sand bags which made set up much faster. Our last day on the beach was quite windy and while others had their umbrellas blowing down the beach or had to take them down, ours stood strong and didn’t move. The plastic anchors came in handy that day!

I went to Port Aransas, TX on July 13-14. On the 13th, the wind was light and we were able to just use the anchor built into the pole, and we put water bottles full of seawater into the 4 corners. We also used the wall, and everything worked fine. On the 14th, Hurricane Barry had landed down the coast in Louisiana, so the wind was much stronger. I actually dropped the pole into a larger anchor I had purchased (just to be safe), and put sand into the 4 corners, as well as water bottles, and used the stakes. We did NOT use the wall on this day. This picture was taken on that day, and you can see that it's holding up fine. Several other regular umbrellas on the beach blew away, or inside out. Ours held up. The wall might have had problems with the wind, which is why I didn't use it. I was able to set the canopy up by myself in about a minute. It goes up like a regular umbrella - very easy. I had 2 teenagers with me, and I didn't need their help except to line up the holes for the 2 poles to snap together. I'm very happy with this purchase, and highly recommend this canopy.

Your browser does not support HTML5 video.  It's summer time and it means time to head to the beach. I need a cabana that's looks good, not too expensive, easy to setup and found this.Setup is easy as shown in the video. I like that extra ‘wall’ you can put for extra protection against sunlight. I've yet to test in an actual beach how sturdy will be the setup.Materials looks made of good quality.I'll make sure to update this review if needed.

Good sturdy shade for beach or wherever you need shade. This thing withstood 10 days at Emerald Isle in NC where the winds can be brutal. We watched numerous tent canopies break from the wind during our 10 days of using the Qipi. Lightweight and easy to set up/take down. The fabric is not waterproof but we managed to stay mostly dry during pop up rain showers with some heavy rain. We used the wall quite a few times and it is so easy to install-simply clip on and fill the bottom with sand. We plan to spray with some water repellent for our next use. Considering buying an extra due to how great this thing is!

I purchased this cabana after I sat under one similar to it on the Jersey shore (yes, I am from NJ - it's not the beach here).First, setting up the cabana went fairly quickly - easy directions to follow. I loved the pattern (red, white and blue). We were able to fit two adult and also two children's beach chairs underneath the roof of the unit. I loved the removable side wall - it helped keep the sun out on the sunny side of the cabana. The cabana was also pretty easy to disassemble after our day on the sand and packed up pretty quickly into the carrying case. I will warn anyone buying this cabana, though. As the day wore on, the air became quite windy on the beach, and I had to take down the removable side. It started to act like a sail and was really tugging the unit to one side. Once removed, the rest of the cabana stayed put - no problem. I would highly recommend this cabana, especially if you do not like to sit in the sun or move your umbrella around as the sun moves throughout the day.

This is my 2nd cabana and bought from separate year and different brand. Too bad and I missed to take photo to show, but we use this on fall at the beach. I am 5 ft and the Cabana is 6x6 height and it so I can still stand straight. It maybe bothered to taller people, but not me. The side wall is very helpful to block and/or add shade from the sun. BTW, the color I choose is strip blue and white as I like the simple look and similar color from my 1st cabana, but no sidewall. I plan to use on summer and connect them together. This new/2nd cabana is lesser/affordable than my 1st ($99). Also, the new/2nd cabana's side wall had stain and not sure where it comes from upon opening and setting up, but it's not an issue, it can be wiped/clean my washing it. I will update my comment/review with photo as we will have summer beach picnic sometime on SEPT 2019 and will bring this canopy, again!

Excellent little cabana for the beach. Takes minutes to set up and take down. A little smaller than expected but keeps you out of the sun. Saves money from buying umbrellas and chairs at the beach!

We loved just about everything about this cabana, easy to assemble, worked well in the wind, the side that you could attach gave extra shade, the only downside was that it was only SPF 50. Although that seems like good sun coverage, you definitly still needed to wear a good amount of sunscreen for protection. I still got color while wearing an SPF of 30. I stayed under the cabana the entire time I was at the beach (about 4 hours). My husband thought he would be good without sunscreen and got burned.
