19 Coastal Bedrooms Ideas
Coastal bedrooms are a popular choice for a serene and soothing sleeping space.
These spaces are casual, comfortable, and calming, and they don’t require a lot of money to create.
A coastal bedroom is a place where you can expect to find the peace and quiet you need to rest and recharge.
The colors, textures, and patterns used in coastal rooms are inspired by the landscape—the sand, the sky, the water, and the plants.
To create a coastal bedroom, you don’t need to live near the ocean.
You just need to think about what you love about the beach and try to incorporate that into your space. Here are some ideas to help you get started.
1. A Seaside Bedroom
The seafoam green walls in this bedroom are calming, but also add a pop of color that’s perfect for the beach.
A blue and white striped rug, a pair of wall sconces, and a vase of white tulips add more soft color to the room.
2. A Bedroom With a View
Waking up to a view of the ocean is a dream come true, but even if you don’t live near the shore, you can still make your bedroom feel like a beach house.
This bedroom in a Martha’s Vineyard home by architect Patrick Ahearn features a stately four-poster bed and a vaulted ceiling.
The generous use of white and the large window make the room feel airy and bright.
3. A Calming Bedroom
The guest bedroom in this beach house sticks to a neutral palette.
The white shiplap walls and light wood floors keep it feeling simple, but the addition of a bed skirt, throw pillows, and a rug add just enough visual interest.
4. A Bedroom in the Tropics
This room is all about the view. The indoor/outdoor nature of the space is emphasized by a wall of windows and doors that open up to the ocean.
The large, open space is broken up into three sections: a sleeping area, a sitting area, and a study.
The study and sitting area are broken up with a large, built-in bookshelf.
5. A Bedroom in Blue
A classic palette of blue and white gets a fresh pop of color with this bedroom’s bright green headboard.
A vintage-style rug, a pair of louvered shutters, and a soft pink quilt complete the look.
The shabby chic headboard is the star of this room, but we also love the casual display of artwork above the mantel.
The art is hung in a haphazard way that feels perfectly beachy.
6. A Bedroom in the Hamptons
A bedroom in this Bridgehampton, New York, home by Steven Gambrel features a bed upholstered in a linen-cotton blend, a custom-colored rug, and an antique stool.
A painting by Charles Webster Hawthorne hangs above the bed, and a vintage wicker basket is used as a side table.
7. A Nautical Bedroom
This bedroom by the sea is a great example of how to incorporate a nautical theme in a sophisticated way.
The navy and white color scheme and the crisp, clean lines of the furniture and decor give the room a preppy vibe.
The anchor motif in the bedding and the sailboat painting are the only overtly nautical elements in the space.
The result is a bedroom that’s elegant and understated, and that feels like a luxurious retreat by the sea.
8. A Bedroom in the Tropics
A four-poster bed with a canopy is a great way to create a sense of intimacy in a large bedroom.
This one is decorated with a variety of tropical accents, including a palm tree–inspired bedspread, a rattan ceiling fan, and a vintage-style sign.
The louvered doors on the closet and bathroom enhance the tropical feel.
9. A Bedroom in the Caribbean
A master bedroom in a Caribbean vacation home includes a custom bed with a canopy in a Romo fabric, a 19th-century campaign chair, and a floor lamp by Michael Taylor.
The bed linens are by Matouk, the rug is a custom design by Studio Four NYC, and the pillows are by Studio Four NYC and Ralph Lauren.
The drawings over the bed are by Ciprian Muresan.
10. A Bedroom in the Hamptons
This bedroom is a perfect example of how to use color and pattern to create a cohesive space.
The wallpaper, Roman shades, and bed linens all feature a bold blue-and-white pattern that feels both classic and fresh.
The modern white table lamps and white nightstands are a great contrast to the blue and let the pattern take center stage.
