Whether you’re a seasonal snowbird, full-time RVer, or owner of an RV resort, one thing is certain: Florida’s sunshine makes outdoor living irresistible. But to enjoy it comfortably, shade and shelter are key — and nothing offers tropical flair and functionality quite like a custom-built tiki hut.
At Lucas General Contractors, we specialize in tiki hut construction for RV lots, RV parks, resorts, and campgrounds across Florida. Our custom tiki huts provide a cool, inviting space for relaxing, entertaining, or simply enjoying the outdoors. Whether you’re looking to build for one personal lot or develop dozens across a resort, we’re your trusted team.
Why RV Owners Love Tiki Huts
Florida is one of the most popular states for RV living, and tiki huts are becoming a favorite upgrade for good reason:
Shade and protection from the sun and rain
Outdoor living space for grilling, lounging, and dining
Instant tropical style that adds character and appeal
Increased resale and rental value of the lot
Great for guests and gatherings
In many RV communities, tiki huts are even a top selling point — making your lot stand out in competitive markets.
Custom Tiki Hut Construction for RV Lots
We build every tiki hut on-site to suit the exact layout and conditions of your RV pad or resort grounds. Our team handles the process from start to finish:
- Free on-site consultation and measurements
- Custom design based on your space, sun exposure, and preferences
- Pressure-treated or cypress wood framing
- Hand-laid Sabal palm thatch roofing
- Optional slab foundation or paver base
Our tiki huts range in size from cozy 10×10 covers to large 20×30+ communal shelters. We build for:
- Individual RV lot owners
- RV resort developers
- Campground and park managers
- Seasonal communities
Whether you’re placing one hut or planning an entire resort-wide rollout, we’re equipped for the job.
Communal Tiki Huts for Parks and Resorts
Beyond personal lots, tiki huts are a fantastic amenity for RV parks and campgrounds. We build large pavilions and community shelters that offer:
- Outdoor kitchens and grilling stations
- Covered picnic areas
- Event spaces for live music, potlucks, or seasonal activities
- Shaded game or lounge areas
RV park owners know — a great common area creates community and attracts long-term guests.

- Work around your landscape or pad utilities
- Complement the aesthetic of your resort
We’ll help you choose the best location, height, and layout so the hut works perfectly for your lifestyle.
Permits and Park Approval
We’re familiar with the permitting and HOA/park approval processes in most Florida RV communities. We help with:
- Local permitting if required
- Submitting diagrams and specs to RV park management or associations
- Navigating height or setback restrictions
Our team ensures compliance so your tiki hut is approved and built without delays.
What Our Clients Say
“We added a tiki hut to our lot in Okeechobee and it completely changed our winter experience. It’s our favorite spot now — shady, breezy, and a hit with guests.”
