A Warmer Welcome: Cape Cod Doormats Upgrade Oyster Manor’s Porches
When guests arrive at Oyster Manor, the experience begins long before they step inside. The front porch sets the tone — and now, thanks to Cape Cod Doormats, it looks as polished as the stay itself.
We partnered with Cape Cod Doormats to add their Palomino Original mats to our front porch and back patio — pieces that combine coastal charm with practical strength.
From “Good Enough” to Made-to-Last
Before the upgrade, our entry mats were standard issue: undersized, waterlogged, and quick to fade. They trapped sand after every beach trip and never matched the look or scale of our double doors.
Now, two 20x72 Palomino mats welcome guests through the front entry, and a 30x50 mat anchors the back patio. Each mat is perfectly proportioned, handwoven, and made to withstand coastal weather.
Why Cape Cod Doormats
Founded on the shores of Massachusetts, Cape Cod Doormats has been crafting marine-grade, handwoven mats since 1986 . Their designs are made from UV-stable, quick-drying polypropylene rope that resists mold, mildew, and fading, which is a necessity for life along Florida’s Gulf Coast.
We chose Palomino for its warm tone and subtle texture. It’s a complement to Oyster Manor’s clean, coastal aesthetic. Beyond beauty, it’s functional: the woven design lets sand and water fall through, keeping entries tidy and slip-free. You don’t have to feel bad about stepping on these mats.
Tip: Hose them down after a beach day, and they’ll dry in minutes.
Double-door front porch at Oyster Manor upgraded with Cape Cod’s Palomino doormats, showing a low-profile, sand-resistant surface ideal for coastal homes.
Function That Looks Intentional
Every corner of Oyster Manor reflects thoughtful design, and the entry should too. These mats don’t just protect… they complete the picture. Their tailored dimensions eliminate awkward gaps, their texture adds depth, and their durability ensures they’ll hold up through sun, salt, and sand.
They’re proof that even the smallest upgrades — the kind guests might not name but instantly feel — matter most. That’s what we’re all about at Oyster Manor.
