Palma Ceia blends 1920s Spanish-style homes with large new houses on wide lots. West Shore Shade fits designer shades to each style. We measure every window ourselves.
Woven wood and roller shades fit Palma Ceia's Spanish-style homes well. Woven wood suits tile floors and stucco walls. Roller shades fit deep window openings with an inside mount. West Shore Shade also fits zebra shades in family rooms. We show you real swatches at a free in-home consultation.
Palma Ceia sits in the heart of South Tampa. The Palma Ceia Golf and Country Club anchors the area. Many older homes have Spanish and Mediterranean styles, with stucco walls and barrel-tile roofs. Larger new homes now stand on many of the lots.
Older stucco homes often have deep window openings. A deep opening is ideal for an inside-mounted roller shade. The shade tucks in and leaves the wall clean. Some homes have casement windows that swing out. Inside mounts work there, since the window opens away from the shade.
Homes near the golf course look out over open green space. Large rear windows also face pools and patios. Solar screen roller fabric cuts glare and keeps those views. A 5% or 10% openness keeps the most view.
New two-story homes here often have a tall great room and a second-floor loft. High windows can be hard to reach. Cord loop and chain controls can be extended, and motorized versions are another choice. We go over each option during your free in-home consultation.
Bedrooms and nurseries often need dark rooms for daytime naps. Blackout roller fabric blocks light through the shade itself. The ZeroLux system adds side channels and a bottom channel to close the edges. Cordless operation is available on eligible configurations.
Every style is custom-made for your windows with chain or cordless lift. Here is how each one fits homes in this area.
Roller shades tuck neatly into the deep stucco openings of older Palma Ceia homes. Solar screen fabric keeps golf course and pool views. Blackout fabric in a Square cassette suits bedrooms.

Zebra shades suit the family rooms and kitchens of newer Palma Ceia homes. You shift the bands to move between soft light and privacy. Light-filtering and dim-out fabrics are both available.

Woven wood shades suit the tile floors and stucco walls of Spanish-style homes. Flax blends like Lake and Devine add a warm tone. Top-down/bottom-up lets light in high while keeping lower panes private.
Woven wood details →Palma Ceia's big rear windows often face open pools and fairways with little shade. Roughly 76% of sunlight striking standard double-pane windows enters as heat in the cooling season. The U.S. Department of Energy reports this figure. Shading that glass helps. Read the federal guide to window coverings.
The same roller, zebra and woven wood styles come motorized. Use a remote, a wall switch or your smart-home app. Every motor carries our lifetime motor warranty.
Yes, shades work well with casement windows. Casements swing outward, so an inside-mounted shade does not block them. We check the crank handle position first. Then we set the shade depth so it clears the hardware.
You can use extended chain or cord loop controls. They let you raise and lower high shades from the floor. Motorized versions are another option for windows out of reach. We help you pick during your free in-home consultation.
Top-down/bottom-up lets you lower the shade from the top. Light comes in high while the lower part of the window stays covered. It works well in bathrooms and street-facing rooms. It is available on woven wood shades.
