Two Pole Tahiti Palapas are wonderful over spas, BBQ islands, pools, or just for shade. The
most popular application for this type of palapa is placing it over a BBQ island since the shape of the palapa can cover most of the BBQ Island and your guests! If you want to truly vacation at home, purchase a two pole Tahiti palapa!

Each Kit Includes

  • High quality thatch roofing
  • 2 main poles 5"-6" diameter with supporting lumber
  • Partially assembled roof structure parts
  • Step-by-step instructions
  • All necessary Hardware

Fiji Thatch Top Cone Fiji Thatch Panel Fiji Thatch Panel Close Up

Our 5 or 6 inch diameter poles extend to 2 inch diameter pine rafters. The thatching is hand woven Tahiti thatch.

Palapa sizes are an a rough estimate because of the following. Your 7x14 foot palapa will have a 6 foot x 13 foot frame and we estimate the thatch to overhand the frame by 12 inches on all sides. If you were to measure from one side of the palapa to the other including the thatch you should measure around 8 feet x 15 feet. We estimate all of the Tahiti Palapas to have a 2 foot overhang. All our Tahiti Palapas will have a frame 2 feet smaller then the advertised overall size of the palapa.

The shape of the two pole palapa is in the shape of an oval and the legs beneath are placed under the peak of each half round end.

The pole spacing is measured from the center of the pole to the center of the other pole.

standard depth of installation when using concrete to anchor your palapa.

Pole length does not affect the base price of the palapa.

Fire Retardant:

Palapa Structures treats each piece of thatch, front and back, according to the
manufacturers' specifications. A Certificate of Fire Retardantcy will be issued, if
requested. You may present to inspectors when required. According to the lab testing data available the treated thatch archives a classified A rating. Fire retardant adds a clear coating to the thatch, leaving the surface slightly more reflective. Please see FAQ page for more information.

Wood Type:

Pine is a tough, strong, maintenance-free building material used in landscape
construction for its natural appearance and adaptability to a variety of architectural styles. It is used in many outdoor applications such as, framing, paneling, corral poles, utility poles, and railroad ties.

Cedar is known for it's decay-resistance. The wood is used for purposes requiring resistance to weather, such as roof shingles. Cedar wood also naturally repels insects. If you order the cedar all wood in the order that would normally be pine will be changed to cedar i.e. ribs. Only a very small supply of cedar is kept in our inventory. It may take an additional 4-6 weeks to get a cedar palapa if we need to order more cedar. Please call for availability if you need your palapa promptly.

Wood Treatment:

Treating lumber provides long-term resistance to organisms that cause deterioration. It extends the productive life of lumber by five to ten times. Wood that is exposed to moisture or soil for sustained periods of time will become weakened by various types of fungi, bacteria or insects. Both the light and dark stains provide similar amounts of protection for the wood. Darker color will protect wood better from UV rays. Custom colors available; to order online purchase the dark and contact us right away to change the color. If you select to have the wood treated all the wood will be treated.
