This place has EVERYTHING for a perfect get away from the hustle & bustle of city life!

Go relax in a quiet safe & enjoyable home in Key Largo. Jim has everything there you could possibly need, just like home! Feed the fish, manatee and iguanas and enjoy sitting under the tiki hut with the fans to cool you off! What a tropical quiet paradise from the hustle of city life! We enjoyed fishing, kayaking & the sandbar! Took out a charter trip to catch mahi-mahi and had it for dinner! Visited the park and took the glass bottom boat to see the reef! You will not regret staying here ♥️

Great Keys Vacation

Jim was an excellent host meeting us at check-in and giving us a tour on the Sea Cat boat that we rented for the week. We spent everyday on the water and had a great time. Highly recommend the boat rental. We had plenty of room for our family of 6 and the house is close to several great restaraunts.

Perfect keys house

I have been traveling to the keys my entire life visiting my grandparents who lived in Marathon. This house reminded me so much of their house but much nicer! We saw manatees in the canal and kayaked and paddle boarded through the canal. It was perfect to watch the kids playing in the water while sitting under the tiki hut. We also rented a boat to take the kids tubing and snorkeling. Will be returning next year!

Perfect setup

What a great property and Host (Jim). So many add ons to the property that really make this place special. We have stayed numerous places throughout the keys and was a little reluctant to stay in key largo but we are so glad we did. So much to do and see in the waters around key largo and the house was the best hands down we have ever stayed at in the keys. From the canal front living room, the canal front bedrooms, the well kept property to the tiki hut it was more than we expected. Plus Jim has everything you could possibly need for any water activities. Rent his boat for the week and explore everyday. 5 minutes from house dock to channel to ocean. We only left house once to feed tarpon at Robbies for the kids other than that it was on the water. House is a must if you are considering. And when I say Jim has everything I mean it. Stayed at many vrbo rentals searching for stuff and this house never fell short of anything needed. If you are weighing your options on different houses to rent and this is one do yourself a favor and go with this one.

Very relaxing and fun

This property is beautiful and very relaxing and stress free. Jim is great and very accommodating. We got visits from the iguanas and manatees. The only reason why it did not get 5 stars is you can't really fish in the canal, everyone feeds the fish so they won't bite. That is really the only downside.

Superbe maison dans un coin sauvage

Superbe location dans un petit coin sauvage, un petit goût de paradis! Nous étions trois adultes et trois adolescentes. Il y avait tout ce dont nous avions besoin même plus : des vélos, des kayaks, une planche de paddle. Nous avons fait des journées pêche et avons même nagé avec des lamantins!!!! Commerces à moins de cinq minutes en voitures, miami à 1h 15, les everglades à 1h et Key west à 2h30. Bref, c'était génial! Merci pour les conseils dans le classeur à l'entrée de la maison! On a adoré!!! A recommander sans hésitation.

Absolutely wonderful!!!

Thanks Jim for letting us stay at your place!! It was absolute paradise! We enjoyed seeing the iguanas and manatees right out the back door as well as adventuring out on the kayaks and canoes. Your dock right out the back door sure made it convenient for some ocean fishing and what a catch. We had grouper, snapper, margate and hogfish all in one outing. Then to be able to clean them with your set up under the tiki while listening to music made cleaning fish seem like fun. After all our playing everyday- we were only to happy to retire to our individual rooms, to comfy beds and TV in each one. THANK YOU-THANK YOU!! We will be returning ASAP.

Fantastic house on the canal

What a wonderful gem on Key Largo! The house and gardens are beautiful, well cared for and extremely comfortable. The house was impeccably clean and beautifully decorated. The whole group enjoyed spending time at the tiki hut watching my son and husband fish. They fished every day and were very successful. We appreciated having the kayaks and canoes and made good use of them most evening. We are already discussing our next visit and look forward to staying here again!

Great value! Great place!

We really enjoyed the property. Kayaking is great in the area and grilling and chilling under the tiki hut was a nice way to relax afterwards. Jim has really thought of everything to make sure your vacation goes perfectly. Book this place early though, popular for obvious reasons.

Perfect Vacataion Getaway!

My husband and I along with our three adult children and spouses (seven of us) stayed at Paradise Place the week before Thanksgiving 2018. This was our first HomeAway experience and from the very beginning when we first saw this listing and began communicating with Jim to the very last day of our stay in Key Largo, our trip was truly paradise. It was important for us to have things to do that would allow us to just relax and stay put for the day and, when you arrive at Jim's Paradise Place, it is easy to forget the rest of the world and do just that. You can lean back in a chair and enjoy music or TV in the Tiki Hut, float in the canal, glide by the mangrove in a canoe or kayak, or watch the wildlife all day long...we loved it all. The kitchen had everything we needed to make meals, snacks and prepare our favorite beverages and we really loved eating about every meal outside in the Tiki Hut. Jim had everything we could possibly need to make our trip outstanding and we talk about it all the time. We highly recommend Jim's Paradise Place and hope to come back again. Thanks so much, Jim. We appreciate all you did to make our trip the best ever!

Quiet location with a wonderful property owner!

The home had lots of room. Loved the deck and the outside shower. We rented the boat and had the time of our life taking it out fishing and exploring. The iguanas came to visit which the kids loved. The other favorite was the paddle board, kayaks and canoe. These were on the water all the time. Jim the property owner is amazing and so kind. He was extra helpful and took care of our needs before we even asked. Only downside is the no see um insects that just had lunch on us, but that's part of being near the water. We would go back to this property anytime. My kids all voted it was the best vacation ever!!!

Great house for families

The house was larger than expected. Had things you wouldn't expect at a rental. Little things like spices, toilet paper etc. The outside shower was great after swimming in the canal. The owner Jim was fantastic, we rented the boat for a week and he took us out for about 2 hours showing us the ways in and out and fishing and snorkeling spots. The outside tiki hut was awesome and a great place to relax.
