About Us
Hamacas del Sol is a company founded by Michael, who is passionate about the rich culture of Latin America. The company creates handmade hammocks that embody the ancestral traditions of the region. During his travels in Latin America, Michael was impressed by the generational transmission of hammock weaving techniques, especially led by women. Each hammock is meticulously crafted by hand, using authentic threads and traditional looms. The motifs and symbols woven into the hammocks reflect the true artistry behind each piece. Michael’s vision goes beyond selling products; he seeks to share his passion for pre-Columbian civilizations and the history of Latin America. Each hammock has a name that tells the story and soul of the artisans who created it. The brand values respect for know-how and humility, working closely with Colombia, Mexico and Nicaragua to ensure fair working conditions and equitable prices. Hamacas Del Sol also focuses on promoting fair trade and respect for the environment. For Michael, this cultural heritage is key to the development of Latin American countries in the competitive global arena. With its commitment to craftsmanship and the preservation of ancestral traditions, the company seeks to provide comfort and quality through its hammocks.

Mission Statement

Preserving traditions and keeping alive ancestral techniques in hammock design. We promote and distribute handcrafted products based on ancestral know-how. Through its actions, Hamac del Sol fights against the extinction of these manufacturing traditions and promotes the richness of handmade products, which reflect our cultural and intangible heritage. Our strong attachment to tradition allows us to offer you a wide variety of luxury and customizable hammocks, manufactured in 3 Latin American countries, each with its own history, tradition and philosophy on the construction and use of hammocks: Nicaragua, Colombia and Mexico.
