Few pieces epitomize poolside luxury like the in-pool chaise lounge. These ergonomically designed loungers rest on tanning shelves (also known as Baja shelves or sun ledges), letting you partially submerge in cool water while soaking up the sun.
The Ledge Lounger Signature Chaise is an industry favorite for a reason. Perfectly contoured for in-water use, it supports your body comfortably, allowing you to recline for hours. Its high-quality resin construction withstands sun, water, and chemicals.
Customizable Design Options: Choose from a range of colors to match your Houston pool's finish and surrounding landscape. Whether you lean toward minimalist neutrals or vibrant statement hues, there's a style that suits you.
Tired of hopping out of the pool to grab your drink or phone? Our single in-pool chaise lounge models often come equipped with built-in drink holders and phone pockets. They’re a must-have for anyone serious about poolside comfort.
Pair two chaise lounges with an in-pool side table for the ultimate relaxation nook—perfect for couples or solo sunbathing.
Functional and stylish, in-pool side tables are ideal companions to your loungers. Designed to be partially submerged or used dry-side, they offer a stable surface to keep essentials within arm's reach.
Take summer entertaining up a notch with in-pool side tables featuring built-in ice bins. These game-changing accessories store beverages directly in the pool, so you never have to leave the water to stay refreshed.
Perfect for Houston pool parties, lazy afternoons with a book, or sunset cocktails under the Texas sky.

With Houston’s hot summers, high UV exposure, and occasional heavy rain, your in-pool furniture must be engineered for endurance.
Look for UV-stabilized materials to resist fading, chlorine and saltwater resistance, and heavy-duty resin or marine-grade fabric.
All products we recommend at Downunda Pools meet these high-performance standards. Our goal? To ensure you enjoy your investment for years to come.
Can I leave in-pool furniture in the water year-round? Yes—most high-quality in-pool furniture is designed for year-round submersion. However, during freezing temperatures (rare in Houston but possible), it’s best to remove them to prevent cracking.
How do I clean in-pool furniture? Most items simply require a quick spray with a hose. For deeper cleaning, use a non-abrasive cloth with mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes.
What is the best furniture for shallow ledges? Furniture like the Ledge Lounger Signature Chaise is specifically made for shallow areas between 9” and 15” of water. Always measure your ledge before purchasing.
When designing or upgrading your pool, talk to your builder about integrated ledges and anchor points for your in-pool furniture. At Downunda Pools, we can help install tanning ledges designed for loungers, ensure appropriate depth and drainage, and recommend pieces based on your pool finish and shape.
