Cool Bunk Beds for Tweens and Preteens
By the time your kids become tweens, they realize their room setups matter. Preteens appreciate independence from siblings and parents. They want their rooms set up to enjoy their favorite pastimes like reading, video gaming, hanging out with friends, and relaxing.
Because they spend so much time in their rooms, multifunctional setups are key. Here are some of our favorite preteen beds and tween beds that real tweens chose for their room makeovers. Whether it's a twin bed or full bed for a 10 year old, or a high queen loft bed for a high schooler, the tween bed collection is the place to start your search.
Twin XL Loft Bed with Desk for Preteens
First up is a shared room for tweens that features two twin XL loft beds with desks underneath. This mom figured out a way to sleep two in a room by dividing the space in half with mirroring beds.
A twin XL bed is four inches longer than a traditional twin bed. This means longer legs have more room to stretch out. Add a long desk for independent homework and study time. Tweens need to be able to focus and this look helps them achieve this goal.
Tweens Love Twin Bunks with Ladder on End
Moving the ladder to the end of the bed gives bunk beds a sleek look, which tweens love. As they begin to take interest in their room decor, you might be surprised that they've outgrown their decorations and gravitated towards a more mature look.
Go simple with a twin bunk bed. The ladder on end adds a modern and older aesthetic so your tween feels like they've achieved cool bunk bed status.
Twin Over Full Staggered Bunk Beds
Twin over full bunk beds have jumped to the top of all our top bed designs as best sellers in every category. Tweens love how they take the classic look of a bunk but provide extra space on the bottom bed for everyday usage.
With a twin over full bunk, your tween has more room to stretch out on the bottom bunk but can keep the top bunk for sleepovers. The Slope twin over full bunk bed, like all Maxtrix bunks, is also available with the ladder on end option. See how one tween boy designed his room with this setup:
Add underbed storage drawers to help keep that preteen room looking tidy.
Super Size to Twin XL over Queen Bunk Beds
The Slope is a wonderful bed for small tween rooms. However, to add more space for your preteen to stretch out, opt for the Plush or Lavish twin XL over queen. These cool bunk beds have the same staggered design, and they're perfect for preteens who love to have lots of space to lounge.
Queen over Queen Bunk Beds
Need even more space? Go straight for our largest stacked bunk beds: queen size bunk beds. The ladder can be in the front or back, plus it has a lot of underbed space for storage. See how one mom designed her shared tween boys’ room:
Corner Loft that Sleeps Two Preteens
More than one tween in the home? Corner bunks sleep two up high, leaving valuable living space underneath. This means you've essentially doubled your square footage by sleeping up high and studying and lounging below.
Our High Rise corner loft bed is a best seller for its classic and sleek design. It optimizes corners in tween rooms. As a high loft, it leaves room underneath for desks, bookcases, dressers and any combination thereof. Use the space to create exactly what your tween needs and let them design it.
Sleep Many with Triple Corner Bunks
Take that same idea, add a third bed, and upgrade to twin XL and queen sizes. Now you've got a supersized triple corner bunk bed: the Decathlon XL.
This newer bed design has two twin XL beds up high and a queen underneath. These cool bunk beds for tweens also have staircase entries, which means several more unique places to store things. If space allows, go big with the Decathlon.

For 10-13 year olds, there are so many bed options out there. However, you can always reconfigure your Maxtrix bed as they enter high school and college.
