I had a great time. This place is in the absolute perfect location. If you are looking to fish, look no further. I hooked a massive barracuda and many tarpon from the dock, as well as some grunts. I had a wonderful time and would love to come again

Our Piece of Paradise

Our third time staying here was as wonderful as the first two. So peaceful and comfortable. All the comforts of home, close to grocery, restaurants and pharmacy if needed. It’s just the best place to stay when escaping the northern states for a little warmth and sunshine in mid winter. I can’t imagine staying anywhere else in the Keys.This place is our favorite of favorites!

About the host

Hosted by Pablo and Carmen Concepcion

Host profile image
In 1961 my parent came to this country from Cuba, because of political persecution from a communist regime. They came with nothing but the clothes on their back, strong work ethic and determination to create a better life for their family. After many years of struggle and hard work, they finally accomplished the American dream of success in a free country!
His success came in real-estate! Even though he was not able to master the English language, my father reached great success and was highly respected for his accomplishments in the business world. He owned many apartment buildings throughout Miami, Hialeah, Miami Beach and the Keys.
It was always my fathers dream to find the perfect vacation home for his family because he loved the ocean and fishing. After decades of hard work and building his financial stability, he came across his dream vacation home in Islamorada, Florida in 1980. My mom and I felt he was bringing us into a jungle, since the property was full of coconut trees and shrubs that you could hardly see the house. We could not see his vision, but as a family the three of use worked every weekend to make it livable and ready for sharing with our friends and family.
My father passed in 1998, but had many years of enjoying the sunrise over the ocean and watch my children fishing from the dock. Unfortunately, in 2017 Hurricane Irma swept through and nearly destroyed our private paradise. Since then, multiple generations of our family have worked tirelessly to rebuild this home for our guest to enjoy.
We are so honored to welcome everyone to Paradise Villa and Paradise Cottage to make memories that last a lifetime!!!!

Why they chose this property

Relax and enjoy amazing ocean views in this quaint cottage- perfect for a couple or family of 4.

Plenty of parking space and private dock for convenient water access.

What makes this property unique

Close to all attractions. Take a day trip to Key West or Miami we are in a perfect location.
