Is the Abaco Marina shade room-darkening?

No. It is unlined, so it filters light and offers limited privacy, especially at night. For a darker room, choose a lined shade instead.

Can I mount it inside the window frame?

Yes. It supports both inside and outside mount. Inside mount gives a cleaner look; outside mount covers more of the window and light gaps.

Does the motorized version work with Alexa and Nest?

Yes. The motorized option connects to home automation systems with Nest and Alexa support. Confirm the motor and hub requirements when ordering.

What sizes can I order?

Widths run up to 96 inches and heights start at 12 inches. Each shade is custom made to your measurements.

Is it safe around children?

Blindster states it meets all CPSC requirements. Choose the cordless or motorized lift if you have young children.

When is the price lowest?

Only one new price is listed: $280.61 at Blindster.com as of November 7, 2026. Custom shades rarely discount deeply, so compare quotes before ordering.

Our take on the Blindster Abaco Marina Custom Bamboo Woven Wood Shades 34x48

The Blindster Abaco Marina is a custom-made woven wood Roman shade in bamboo, jute, grasses and cotton, built in a coastal beach-cottage style. It mounts inside or outside the window, comes with a built-in valance, and can be ordered motorized with Nest and Alexa support. Unlined, it filters light rather than blocking it, so opacity varies with the weave. At $280.61 at Blindster.com as of November 7, 2026, it is the only new price listed, so there is no recent range to compare against.
