Laguna Tote By Lu + Elle - Retail Value $130.00

My favorite part of this roomy beach tote isn't the blue tie-dye design, faux leather handles, or even the inner pocket. It's the colorful tassel that dangles off of one side. I don't know why, but I am just wild about tassels. It measures 13” high X 15” wide and the faux leather feels quite sturdy on the bottom as well as on the wide handles. The tie-dye shell of the bag is 100% cotton while it has 100% polyester cream lining. It easily fits everything from this month's box inside with plenty of room to spare. I can pack a beach blanket, water bottle, snacks, and sandals for a trip outdoors, even if it's only to the backyard right now.

 

Hawaiian Blooms Kimono By Known Supply, size M/L - Listed Value $59.00

One of the best things about this exclusive kimono is that it can easily be worn as a housecoat or robe in these times. The lightweight fabric is 100% organic cotton and features a white and blue tropical floral print against a pleasing blue background. The M/L that I received has a nice oversized fit that I can pop on over a tank top when it gets warmer and perhaps I'll be able to use it as a bathing suit coverup if I get to go swimming this summer. For now, it's been bringing me a little cheer indoors while Pittsburgh switches from sunny to dreary every other day. I find this garment to be soft and comfortable and the two large from pockets allow me to tote around my phone as I wander down to the kitchen for more coffee.

 

Noa Sun Kissed Tank By Fresh Produce - Listed Value $44.50

Also exclusive to Beachly is this super soft tank made of 47% Supima cotton, 47% micro modal, and 6% spandex. Using the Noa Tank from Fresh Produce as the body, they created a spring top with a tropical flair that reads "Sun Kissed" on the front in a vintage-looking font with a botanical pattern. I probably could have worn a small in this tank since it's a little loose on my torso, but I'd rather have it be that way than too tight. The knot at the bottom adds a bit of strange bulk for me and I'm not sure if I'm supposed to tuck the shirt in or leave it out as I did above. Help- how am I supposed to wear this?

 

Cruiser Wireless Bluetooth Speaker By Speaqua - Retail Value $24.99

A highly portable Bluetooth speaker like this is perfect for warm weather travel but is also super useful at home. I've been using this sea glass colored speaker with an exclusive palm leaf graphic in my bathroom for when I want to jam while showering or relax while in the tub. This little baby is super easy to connect to with my phone so I can set whatever musical mood I'm in ASAP.

 

Kauwela Bracelet Set By Mana Up - Listed Value $30.00

I find myself much more of a bangle person if I wear jewelry, but this set of 5 stackable bracelets is more conducive to a casual beachy lifestyle. Each bracelet is delicate in its own right but has some flair of its own. When worn together, they make a statement and remind me of Pura Vida bracelets. This set includes three metal chain bracelets (two silver, one gold), a nylon rope/metal one, and a beaded situation. The beaded bracelet is white and gold and can be slipped over my hand, but the other four all have clasps to fasten. Between the real shell, silver shell charm, pineapple charm, and palm tree charm, I feel very ready for summer even though it's still just spring.

Here are all five of the bracelets on at once!

 

Hibiscus + Grapefruit Salt Scrub by ‘Ili Scrub - Retail Value $14.00

Body scrubs are always welcome in my home since I can't get enough exfoliation. This particular one comes in a wonderful scent of hibiscus and grapefruit which are both uplifting and delightful to my senses. The scrub itself hits a happy marriage of grit and moisture so that it scrubs away dull skin, but isn't so dry that it all ends up on the shower floor immediately. It has enough oil that keeps it together which also stays behind to make sure my skin is moisturized. It took me quite a few weeks to get through this one but I miss it already.

Verdict: Beachly's Spring box has some fun items that are useful whether you're soaking up the sun in your backyard, hanging out on your balcony, or hopefully one day returning to the beach itself. The kimono is extremely comfortable, the tote holds a ton, and the speaker is probably my most loved and useful item. This delivery included six items with a total estimated retail of $302.49 which is about three times the cost of the box.

To Wrap Up:

I live in a very warm part of the country and this is consistently one of my favorite ” splurge” subscriptions.

They are prompt, the cs is WONDERFUL, and I love everything they’ve sent in the past 3 boxes.

My bracelets were missing and they have shipped out a set.

The quality of the items is really good, IMO.

The bag fabric feels like silk. Love the two tops, and as far as I’m concerned, this box is SO worth the price because I use the items.
If you live in place that’s very warm or hot most of the year, this box is great. I may never get to another beach, who knows, but I LOVE the box and the carefully curated items.

I would not use the bag WITH the tops, but love the tops together and the bag separately. 🙂

Marne…. You’re wearing the tank properly. The twist at the bottom shouldn’t be tucked. It’s a good color on you. Hope this helps💙

For $40 it’s a yes… Maybe up to $50 shipping included. For $100 it’s in the future failed sub box category unfortunately.
Curation is nice but they have to compete w fff and ps and they can’t do so like this.

I received a summer sneak peak email and there will be 7 items total with the $300+ value. One item will be Raen sunglasses, either the Norie or the Gilman. Annual members get to choose.

I signed up as annual and don’t see anywhere to choose which sunglasses I get.

The price point makes the box more of a gamble for me. I like the items in the box and the value is there. Yet I d rather get 1 cause box and 1 fabfitfun box for the same price as this box.

This is my 2nd box with them and I actually love it. I find that the majority of items I will actually use or like the style of. That doesn’t happen to me with most boxes. Most boxes I like two items. Do I wish it was cheaper? Yes! But I ish everything was cheaper LoL

I’m curious to know if the extenders on the bracelets are long enough to turn them into choker style necklaces. Probably not, but I thought I would ask. I also really like the style if this box too. Glad you like it!

I got their last box when it was deeply discounted and liked it. I wonder if it will happen with this box?

I was gifted an annual to this box. It is nice, but I would never pay the price myself. I was very pleased with the kimono. The quality really impressed me and I look forward to wearing it. The bag and speaker are still in the box and will be gifted or given away. The most disappointing thing in the box to me was the scrub. Mine had a very bland scent and was a bit dry. It was actually one of things I was looking forward to the most but ended up being a let down.

It’s a nice box, especially when I’m not paying for it. The website is a disaster. They have a place to shop and it is so frustrating it’s not worth it for the products they sell. The prices arent really discounted enough to deal with it. I do love knowing that I will get stuff that is different to a degree than most other boxes. But personally I’d maybe pay $45 for the box.

I received a single strand Pura Vida bracelet instead of the stack shown here. I’m really disappointed

Me too Jacki – emailed them and they sent out another single bracelet. Not at all like the lovely ones in the set. Very very not cool Beachly!

That is all I got as well 🙁 I would have loved this bracelet set! Wonder why we received something less?

That is really not cool…🤨

Same here! I get this box for my daughter and she received it a few weeks back. I saw the review and didn’t recall the stack of bracelets and couldn’t remember what she received instead until you said the Pura Vida bracelet.

I loved this box. The kimono is almost an everyday wear at this point. Also love the tank as it’s been almost unbearably hot some days and After removing the tassles I have the some plans for the tote. Speaker is so-so in output quality but ok for part of homeschooling lately. I got this box so long ago I feel like I must have gotten something different instead of the bracelets as they do not ring a bell/don’t look familiar at all!

The curation is there, but not the value. For me, personally, it’s a gamble having other people pick out what I’m spending my money on. If it’s more of a benefit than a loss, I’m all in. If it’s more money than I’d typically spend on fun stuff, I’m out.

What a cool box. I wish it had some housewares or more of a lifestyle box. Love the bag as well as everything except the speaker. I am with the few that think the price is high.

I agree with all these comments. I’m always intrigued by this sub when I read reviews, but then the price tag stops me.

I agree with The others a little too pricey. If it was $50 I would be more likely to subscribe but for $100?? No way!!!! Cute stuff though.

I would be far more likely to spend $100 on this than any RZ box I’ve seen – I appreciate kate that the tote and kimono are 100% cotton instead of synthetic.

Reply ButtonReply

Donna M Bridwell

I agree. The RZ boxes aren’t for me. I think too much gold or something? Just not my style at all.

Cute box but a little pricey for me. I agree that the ‘retail value’ of the tote is super ridiculous!

Love the curation, but way too expensive for my budget.

This looks like a great little box in the $50 price range, but not for $100!

Seriously, the tote is cute but is it $130 cute? Absolutely not.

I think I’m the only non-beachy person I know. Some of the products in here (the scrub & tote even though I have a million already) seem high quality but the price is too steep for me.
