What Is A Mayan Hammock?

What most retailers call the Mayan Hammock a handmade work of art that can use literally miles of fabric. The Mayan hammocks are designed to be used "crossways" so that the sleeper lies in the middle of the hammock with feet pointed out instead of pointed at the hanging hooks. There is plenty of room in a Mayan hammock; your feet will not dangle over the sides unless you position yourself for them to do so. Most Mayan hammocks are made from either nylon, hemp, or cotton and some are hand-made to order, so keep this in mind when placing an order that needs to arrive by a certain date.
