Alizé Umbrella

The Alizé Antigua is a 10 ft market umbrella with built-in fan cooling — the first of its kind to combine resort-quality shade with whisper-quiet integrated airflow in a single, elegantly engineered system.

Inspired by the warmth and ease of the Caribbean, the Antigua brings the feel of a luxury outdoor space to any patio, pool deck, or dining area. But this is not just a beautiful umbrella. It is a comfort system. Four patented brushless DC fans are built seamlessly into the canopy structure, circulating fresh air directly where people sit — no floor fans, no extension cords, no equipment cluttering your space.

Shade and airflow. One structure. One button.



The Canopy

The 10 ft canopy delivers generous shade for tables seating 6 to 8 people, loungers, and open gathering areas. The warm wood-grain finish gives the Antigua a classic, designer-friendly aesthetic that pairs with virtually any outdoor furniture — from teak dining sets to modern powder-coated aluminum. The marine-grade fabric is UV-resistant, water-resistant, and built to hold its color and structure through seasons of daily use.

 

The Fan System

The integrated four-fan system uses brushless DC motors — the same motor technology found in premium ceiling fans and high-efficiency appliances. Brushless motors run significantly quieter than conventional motors, have no friction-prone brushes to wear out, and deliver more airflow per watt of power consumed. The result is a fan that runs quietly enough for conversation, efficiently enough for all-day use, and reliably enough to outlast the seasons.

The fans circulate air downward and outward across the full canopy area, creating the convective cooling effect your body needs to actually feel cooler — not just shadier. As a standalone shade structure, a traditional umbrella does nothing about stagnant air. The Antigua solves both problems simultaneously.


Built to Last 

The frame is commercial-grade aluminum — lightweight, rust-resistant, and engineered to hold up to wind, rain, UV exposure, and daily use. All wiring is sealed with outdoor-rated connectors to prevent moisture ingress. The entire system is designed for years of reliable outdoor performance, not just one season featuring specifications such as:

  • Canopy diameter: 10 ft
  • Shape: Round / Octagonal
  • Fan system: Four integrated brushless DC fans
  • Frame: Commercial-grade aluminum with wood-grain finish
  • Canopy fabric: Marine-grade, UV-resistant, water-resistant
  • Power: Corded with optional battery base compatibility
  • Setup: Tool-free, compatible with standard market umbrella bases


Who It Is For

The Antigua is the right umbrella for homeowners who want a premium residential outdoor space, Airbnb hosts who want their outdoor areas to impress guests, and light commercial settings including café patios, boutique hotel terraces, and poolside dining. If you want your outdoor space to feel as considered and comfortable as the inside of your home, the Antigua is where that starts.


Works Beautifully With

For outdoor spaces where shade is just part of the picture, pair the Antigua with the Alizé Barbados for denser commercial layouts, or explore the St. Martin for a more contemporary nautical aesthetic.
