Our Story
Founded in 2013, we have spent over a decade perfecting the art of tropical outdoor structures.
Mai Tiki Huts was founded with a single conviction: that the outdoor spaces of Florida deserved the same level of artisanal attention and premium quality that defines the finest indoor living. Too often, outdoor structures are an afterthought — functional but uninspired. We set out to change that.
Over more than a decade, we have built for discriminating homeowners, boutique hotels, pool bars, and private estates across the Sunshine State. Every structure we build begins with a conversation about vision — yours — and ends with something that exceeds it.
What We Build
From intimate backyard retreats to expansive commercial pavilions.
Our portfolio spans the full range of tropical outdoor structures:
- Tiki Huts The classic Florida icon, built to our exacting standards with genuine thatch and heavy timber.
- Palapas Open-air palapa structures perfect for beachfront and poolside settings.
- Chikees Traditional Seminole-style open shelters, honouring native Florida craftsmanship.
- Pool Pavilions Elevated cabana and pavilion structures designed specifically for poolside luxury.
- Outdoor Bars Custom thatched bars for homes, restaurants, and resorts. The centrepiece of any gathering.
- Patio Structures Shade solutions and patio covers that transform any outdoor area into a tropical escape.
Our Philosophy
We position ourselves at the premium end of the market — intentionally. Our clients are not shopping for the lowest price; they are investing in a structure that will define their outdoor space for decades.
This philosophy shapes every decision: the materials we source, the craftsmen we employ, the processes we follow. We use only select-grade thatch and timber. Our builders are trained in traditional methods that have proven their worth across generations.
We are selective about the projects we take on because we are committed to excellence on every single one.
