Villa Paradiso

Beautiful home. Quiet location. Very private. Sparkling clean. Well stocked with beginner supplies. Tastefully decorated. Relaxing pool. Modern kitchen. Dining area outside. Small counter space In kitchen with bar stools for eating inside. Huge master suit - loved the ‘Roman’ shower and fixtures. Other bedrooms very small. One bedroom had no closet to hang clothes. One bedroom shared a hallway bathroom. Great for a family. Three couples might want to negotiate how to split cost - based upon bedroom size and bathroom situation. Management very responsive to a problem with electric gate. Less than 10 mins to Smathers Beach. Would definitely return.

Property is very lovely and house comfortable for a family of 6. It's a bit far from the old town but we rented a car and took an Uber when necessary. Very quiet neighborhood and close to food shopping. Pool is a small but was very enjoyable for our grand daughter.

It is a great house. The pool is small so don’t think families with kids would enjoy it as much as we did as adults. Very quite neighborhood, plenty of parking, spacious rooms. We had a golf cart so perfect but if looking to walk to restaurants and area attractions it is too far. Rent bikes or golfcart and perfect. Beach walk path is very close so that was awesome!

The home at 1511 Johnson was great, three bedrooms, nice kitchen, swimming pool, clean and well cared for.

Villa Paradiso is a wonderful home - comfortable, well stocked, clean - a perfect place to unwind and relax. Just wish we could have stayed longer! The staff at Rent Key West Vacations were helpful, friendly and very responsive!!! We will definitely work with them again when we visit Key West again!

Awesome, great house in a great location of a fantastic little town.

The Paro Family has rented Villa Paradiso multiple times and have had an amazing experience each time. The staff at Rent Key West are exceptional to match the properties.

Wonderful home and location, very well equipped house,spent two weeks in paradise

Overall we were quite satisfied with our vacation rental. The location was good with beaches 1/2 mile away and lower Duval St a mile away. Had an issue with one of the showers.Shared by 3 couples.

Great home with pool! Beautiful furnishings & decorations. Beautiful pool & gardens. Will need a golf cart to get to downtown restaurants & beach.

We have stayed at several vacation rentals that feel like a rental. This house is more like you are borrowing a friends home. It is in a very residential location. It’s not super close to all the action but that is part of why it was great for us. The landscaping helps make you feel like you are in your own world. Loved it.

Villa Paradiso is a haven for my husband and me. He has a busy and demanding job so we look forward to coming here each year. The home feels like it's our home for the time we are there. Every comfort is seen to and we are greeted with a large display of tropical flowers and a lovely basket of cheeses, crackers and cookies. The whole house and grounds make you feel like you're on your own perfect island. This home is a yearly fixture for us and a welcome respite from the stress of work and winter. We highly recommend this home to others. There are so many wonderful restaurants within walking distance, as well as two piers which allow you to see both sunrise and sunset due to their location. We cannot recommend Villa Paradiso highly enough. You just have to experience it for yourselves.

House is beautifully decorated and open and airy! The pool is a great feature! House was clean and well maintained and close to Higgs beach and Duval Street. Only complaint, second King bedroom has no closet so that was a little inconvenient but we managed and a full length mirror would make a good addition. Would definitely rent this home again.

House is beautiful with an incredibly well equipped kitchen. The dip pool with the waterfall feature is soothing and the landscaping really made it feel like the tropics.

Had a GREAT time again in Key West. Really liked this home, just wish it was a little closer to the action. But not so close its a problem :-) . It was a great location for getting to the beaches and enjoying some sun.

A great option. A little out of the way (in the best possible way), but very bikeable to anywhere you want to go. It was very clean. And although not a ton of square footage, the layout was very comfortable for our extended family to share.

Villa Paradiso is a beautiful home with a wonderful floor plan for the 3 couple stay. The kitchen and home overall if very well stocked and we had everything we needed for cooking and grilling. The decor is lovely with a teal/marine blue theme. The pool is too small for actual swimming but perfect for a cool dip and is very private. We would definitely rent this property again!

This was the best vacation ever. My husband, myself, and two children (girl 14 & boy 9) came for fall break. Perfect location, perfect house what more can I say!! We escaped hurricane Michael, which caused a good bit of damage in our small town in southwest Georgia and had no trouble extending our stay through KW Properties. They are wonderful to deal with! The whole experience in Key West was amazing! We will be back!

Villa Paradiso was a great place to stay while visiting Key West. The house was beautiful and clean and in a good location. Wirh the use of bikes and uber we were able to get anywhere we wanted without problem. Would highly recommend to friends! You won’t be disappointed!

The house was lovely and very spacious. The pool was great and the beds were comfortable. The kitchen layout was tight by the stove and refrigerator but manageable. It was very clean when we arrived and we left it that way. All in all a great experience

Overall our experience at the Villa Paradiso was amazing. The only recommendation I would give is it would be nice to see the landscaping better groomed and kept up with. That would add just an over the top experience on such a private and tranquil piece of property. The area was very quiet and the house has all the amenities to allow for a relaxing stay. All of the staff are very friendly and welcoming, especially Ginger (English Bulldog) in the rental office.

Manager's Response

From my first inquiry, the rental process, Jann Knapp and staff were fabulous. The house was impeccably decorated, well a quiet neighborhood even though it was only minutes from the airport. I can not say enough about how fabulous the home was and the service I received from Rent Key West Vacations.

Manager's Response

The house was perfect for 3 couples and a miniature schnauzer. The twin beds were made up into one bed which worked quite well. The pool was very nice to relax in when the weather got warmer the last few days of our stay. We took an Uber just about everywhere so nobody had to drive. The location of the home was close enough to Duval St we could get there quickly but yet far enough
away the house was very quiet. Really loved our stay and would rent this home again if we go back to Key West.

excellent trip great staff very professional was very happy with everything...

This vacation home is wonderful,beautifully decorated and well appointed. The master bedroom and bath are down a hall quite separate from the other two bedrooms and baths. The kitchen is very large and has every utensil and appliance needed to cook a gourmet meal. We LOVED the outdoor space, a beautiful lanai with dining room table and adequate seating. The plunge pool is a perfect size and heated. The property is two blocks from Higgs Beach, which has a beach bar and concession to rent chairs and umbrellas. You can easily bike or rent a golf cart to reach the restaurants and activities along Duval Street.

Stayed at villa Paradiso for a week great place

This property is very nice for a family. The central living room and kitchen combo is a great place to hang out and talk, and all the bedrooms have their own bathroom (2 en suite) which is very nice. The location is convenient to activities but not right in it which is nice. Took me about 20 minutes to walk to the great french bakery La Gignotte on Duval. I suggest getting a bike for this property. Rental company was very responsive. Warmed pool was a big hit with the family.

We really enjoyed our stay in Key West. This house was the perfect place for us. About a mile to a mile and a half from all the hot spots. We rented bikes and walked a lot. Closer to the beaches and bike way. House was very nice. Very organized. Well maintained. Clean. Pool was great to have. Cooked and stayed in to play half the time!

Couldn't have been better. The staff at Rent Key West was friendly and helpful. The house was perfect. We had a wonderful time and hope to come back.

It was very a comfortable home. We thoroughly enjoyed it

This was our 4th trip to Key West and we took 4 friends who had never been before. This was the perfect house for the 6 of us. It was clean, the rooms were far enough apart to be private and there was enough space for us all to hang out together. The pool and outside space was perfect! The only complaint by anyone was the 2 rooms that did not have window air conditioners in it got a bit warm at night when the doors were closed. The management team was awesome. They extended our check out time and allowed is to leave the keys at the house since we didn't have our own car down there. The house is a bit far from all of the action, but it is a quick cab ride and it was quiet and nice. Would definitely stay again and rent a scooter!

Home was comfortable and spacious. Kitchen had all the necessary items for foodies to prepare gourmet meals. Would definitely stay again and also recommend. Have stayed all over Key West and loved the quiet location. Best Parking situation EVER.

We stayed 6 nights here was very satisfied and comfortable in this home. There was 6 people in our party and never felt crowded. Kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed.There was plenty of open area for visiting and nice rooms for privacy.I would stay here again if we ever make it back to Key West.

Great house. Nice neighborhood. I would recommend this house to anyone.

Great space in a convenient location, close enough to the action but perfectly removed for a calm place to return at the end of the day. Favorite part was the outdoor covered dining area, great for coffee, breakfast and BBQs at night.

Gorgeous property! Plenty of room for 6 adults. Beautiful decor, more than enough amenities at the house and very comfy. Excellent service from management. The island is small enough that you can easily get to where you are going without too much walking. We had a great time and would love to come back!

The house was exactly what we were looking for. The very private backyard and heated pool were a great antidote to cooler-than-expected weather. And Rent Key West Vacations was great at communicating over email and letting us know everything we needed before we realized we needed it. It was a little farther away from things than would be ideal, but the quiet made up for it. I'd absolutely come back.

Had a wonderful family vacation in Key West for the first time . Unfortunately it rained most of our week's stay so we didn't get to enjoy the lovely outdoor facilities of Villa Paradisi .... My only disappointment .

Absolutely Wonderful !!!

Excellent! House was clean, comfortable and had everything you needed for a great vacation. It is a little off the beaten path if you like nightlife in Duval. But, perfect for beach days.
One major problem that was not the owners fault. The master room was next to a property that had a motion light. This light went off in our bedroom every 15 minutes all night long lighting up the entire room. We had to cover our heads just to sleep. We read about the problem before and thought it wouldn't be that bad. It was...
We would still stay there again. Just come prepared not to sleep in the master room without a pillow over your eyes.

The rental company was amazing to work with. Answered every question and helped out a TON. Thanks Joyce and gang.

Very Nice.

Our family had a great time and we certainly plan to return. The villa provides ample space for a family to settle in very quickly and the pool is a real asset with the heat.
The villa is very clean and very well stocked to make your stay comfortable.
Best restaurant- Michaels!

Beautiful home and had everything we needed. Also great customer service

The house was very nice. While it is situated in a neighborhood, you are totally secluded in this home. We never saw anyone around the home. It is however about two miles from town so walking wasn't really an option to take in the sites of downtown.

We had a wonderful time at Villa Paradiso. Our party of 6 was very comfortable in the house. It was decorated lovely and the outside dining area was perfect. The pool was small but we were never in it at the same time. We needed a car to get around as it was located pretty far from Duval. Overall it was great and we would definitely rent Villa Paradiso again.

The rental experience at Villa Paradiso was wonderful!

Our rental experience was excellent. Key pick-up was easy. House was clean and well appointed. Better than photos show. Great location, not too far from Duvall Street (or any other area) on bikes. We loved it. Would definitely stay here again! Owners should consider switching twin beds with 2nd king bed (without bathroom attached) to make better use of en suite.

We had an excellent experience at Villa Paradiso. The property was clean, comfortable, and provided so many extra perks. Also, the property management was such a joy to work with. They went out of their way to accommodate to our needs. I highly recommend this rental house!

Great experience! We were very satisfied with everything!

The first week of May, we enjoyed the Villa along with our kids and their college kids. Key West is our family's favorite getaway and Villa Paradiso was one of the most accommodating places we've stayed. I wish our kitchen was as well-equipped as this and as ORGANIZED. Three bathrooms was a delight - no standing in line and wonderfully, comfortable beds. The pool is much larger than it appears in the photo. GREAT PLACE!! Long time favorites - Schooner Wharf Bar with Michael McCloud entertaining, El Siboney for Cuban, Ambrosia for Japanese (actually owned by Japanese, Mangia, Mangia for pasta, Antonia's for elegant Italian, best fried chicken at service station (White & Truman), Forgarty's for people watching & lunch, pan-fried yellowtail snapper anywhere! Don't miss Mallory Square at sunset, a drag show and for the guys, Bare Assets. The list goes on and on!

Great house. 3 full baths. All desired amenities present. Large covered outdoor dining area. Relaxing pool that is larger than appears in photo. Location is walking distance to two beaches, but either bike or car better for Duvall Street. Distance was not an issue for us. Would highly recommend.

We had a great stay and it truly felt like a home away from home. The house was as described. I loved the outdoor area and how all the bedrooms owned up privately to their own outdoor spot. The house is only a short walk to the beach. The staff at Rent Key West were awesome as well. I would highly recommend this house for your next vacation.

Loved the house and the privacy Decorative accents put the house "over the top" Tin beds were comfortable but creaky like a bunch of tree frogs. Kitchen was well stocked with cookware and appliances. Loved the courtyards and pool. Laundry was helpful. A wonderful stay!

This house was perfect for 6 people and the dcor was so cute...very "Key West" so we loved it. Having 3 baths was certainly convenient and the kitchen was spectacular! The pool was perfect for a relaxing dip however not the entire outside area gets sun. House was very clean and well kept and being located on a quiet residential street was nice. House had a couple of little "glitches" but definitely not deal breakers...its a house! Booking, check in and check out went smoothly, we would use Rent Key West again and we would ABSOLUTELY rent this house again!!

This rental was 'close enough' to the city action and 'far enough' to be in a quiet neighborhood

This was our first family vacation together after our daughter's wedding. We found the house very clean, in a convenient location, and a great accommodation for our family. The house was decorated very nice and there was great seating for everyone. The 3 bedrooms were very nice with two king size beds for the two married couples. The kitchen was very well furnished and the outside eating area was nice but was a little warm / humid. The pool area was lovely with all the landscaping and waterfall.

We LOVED it!! Perfect for our family. House was adorable and the kids had a great time. The perfect location for a family with kids. Just blocks from beach and still close enough to down town. Thank you to everyone at Key west Vac. You all were awesome!

We just loved staying here. The interior was very roomy and taken care of well. I felt right at home-like family or friends inviting us to stay with them. My husband and I travel with our 2 grown children and their significant others. All had our own bathrooms. The master closet was wonderful. The kitchen was perfect and big. We did eat outside on the patio a couple of times and used the big table for playing some games. Thanks to everyone who made this a great trip, Rent Key West was helpful before the trip and informative once we were there. We did rent scooters since the property is a little ways from the night life and beaches. Would recommend renting scooters, seeing a drag show, private sunset sail cruise (Blue Ice) and breakfast at Blue Heaven.

This was our 3rd time staying at Villa Paradiso, we love the house and location. The pool is private and offers you your own piece of paradise. We cooked at home most nights and enjoyed the patio area. We will definitely be back!

We had a wonderful experience at our rental home! We are already talking about coming back to Key West, FL and renting this home again! We arrived to the house with lights on, flowers on the island, it was beautiful!

We (6 girlfriends) just spent 6 days at Villa Paradiso and had an awesome time. The house was perfect for us especially with the 2 ensuites. We loved the large kitchen and open floor plan. The outside dining and pool area was very private and lush. The location was great. It was quiet and away from all the craziness of Duval street but only a short bike ride away. We were only 3 blocks from the only 2 beaches in KW. I would recommend parking your car and getting bikes for the week. Bike rentals are very reasonable and they deliver and pick up. I would definitely rent this house again and have already recommended it to my sister and her friends for their trip next year.

We vacationed with 3 couples. This rental provided just what we were looking for. We wanted a quiet place where we could share some down time together just relaxing. The house was spacious, clean and a very nice layout. It has a comfortable pool that was large enough to cool off when needed and the outdoor area provided a nice place to grill some shrimp and enjoy a nice meal together. It was a little hike to town where the action was but the taxi service was available to speed up the process when we were in a hurry. We all enjoyed the stay and agreed that the house was all we hoped for and was probably better than we expected. We had a great time in Key West.

Loved this place! Beautifully decorated inside. Very comfortable. Loved all the French doors. We'd open them up and let the breeze blow through. The grounds were lush and lovely, the outdoor dining area was great and the pool area was wonderful. Though the pool was small, my teenage son rigged up a volleyball net by spanning the skimmer pole across the waterfall and a chair. We had many fun games in the afternoon after riding our bikes around Key West. A little bit further bike ride to hot spots (only about 15 minutes thought)but in a quiet area (except for a dog next door that had a couple of barking fits). Would definitely recommend this place and stay there again.

House just as described. Our group of three couples would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful place..we had great weather so that even made the trip betterhowever.pool and home need to be refreshedsome mold inside and out, some leaking in skylight with the one day of rain, some outdoor painting needs to be done and wood repair and and update of the beds, mattresses, and bedding would be good.a few minor improvements would make this property 5 star...

The Villa Paradiso is absolutely beautiful. It looks exactly as it is portrayed on line. I loved how the house was decorated. The labeling of the cupboards and drawers were ideal for finding items that we needed. We especially enjoyed the backyard and pool. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone. It is a great family home.

My self and 3 other friends stayed a week at Villa Paradiso. It was our first time in Key West. This place is on a quiet street and is located in a neighborhood where the locals live. The whole house is completely surrounded by palms and is private. Our favorite part was the kitchen counter that opened up to the outside dining area. We spent a lot of time outside and this allowed us to talk to those of us that were inside cooking or sitting at the counter. The two king beds where very comfortable. I am told smaller twin beds were a bit stiff. The pool is small, but great for jumping into in the evening or after being at the beach. Be aware that the waterfall is loud. we kept it off most of the time. There are palms and other trees that hang over the pool and drop these little hard balls into the pool. You will want to clean those out if you are visiting during the late summer. They hurt when you step on them. The house is very well decorated. There were a couple of cons. First the house is a good distance away from Duval St. so you should rent bikes or scooters if you stay here. Eaton Bikes is who we used and they will deliver the bikes to you. Second the outside of the house is in need of bit of a face lift and there are a number of things that needed to be repaired inside and out. The only other thing we had a problem with was hot water not being all that hot when using the bathrooms furthest away from the water heater. On a 1 to 10 scale I would give this place a 7 out of 10.

Manager's Response

My experience was very nice. The home was beautiful and nicely furnished with everything we needed.

We spent a lot of time visiting Duval Street, and used the nearby parking lots. We visited the beaches and found them to be really clean, however, the walk to the water was a challenge due to the heavy shells/rocks.

This home is beautifully decorated, clean, and has a very open feeling. Loved the way the doors opened to both the outside dining table and pool area! We definitely heard the yapping dog, but only when he was out which never seemed to be very long. We enjoyed the pool area, however, found the pool to be cooler than we would like due to the heavy shading from the landscaping. I would recommend removing some of the landscaping to allow for more sun. The mattress in the master bedroom may need to be replaced as it is sagging in the middle, and the matresses in the room with twin beds are very hard/stiff. My family and I would rent this home again if we should make another visit to Key West.

Manager's Response

loved the house!! good location. good price. will definitely stay there again. very relaxing!!

This is a beautiful, very well-appointed home in a quiet residential neighborhood. After visiting some of the busier places in and around Key West, we'd come back to what felt like a cool, clam oasis. Very comfortable, spacious, wonderful place to relax.

This has a great layout and was very comfortable for two adults with 3 adult children for a family vacation. The furnishings are lovely and the beds comfortable. However, there were some issues with the plumbing that never got resolved during our stay. One shower was essentially un-usable and a leaky kitchen sink that was reported was also never fixed, which meant more hassle than we would have liked during a vacation (water to clean up under the sink, etc.)Also, we would recommend that guests be told in advance that items furnished by hotels (such as toilet paper) will not be furnished while staying at the Villa. A list of items the guests are responsible for might be in order. While staying at other rental homes,the toilet paper and paper towels have been furnished. Having said all that, we would like to reiiterate that the home is a nice place to stay.

We stayed here for our wedding for a week. The rental company is top notch. We needed a few things fixed and they were very responsive and friendly. The housr is stocked and the layout is great for families. The pool is much bigger than it looks as is the house. Incredible privacy and security...easy walk to Smathers and Duval is just over half a mile. Highly recommended!

Enjoyed staying at this property. Though it was pretty far from all the activities the house was nicely appointed and very quiet. A car or elec. cart would be a MUST.
Pool was very small but we wouldn't have used regardless of size due to the droppings from the iguana that lived in the tree directly above it. Great outdoor dining area, which we used even when it rained.
Would have been nice to have a couple of bikes on the property but you can rent those in town.

We were very pleased with the Villa Paradiso. The layout is wonderful and allows everyone plenty of room to spread out and have space but also has super gathering areas to get to gether as a group.and cheerful. They had plenty of towels available, even beach towels. The house was nicely decorated The kitchen was well supplied ( except that the dishwasher was out of order while we were there and they could not get a new one during our stay.) After being stuck in the gloom all winter, It was so nice to open all those big french doors and let the tropical breezes wash over you.I highly recommend the property for your stay in Key West.

This is a great rental and the three bedrooms, three baths were perfect for our group. The location is also in a cute little neighborhood, a bit away from Duval (though you need a car or bike to get around if you stay here). The fact that the doors on all sides of the living room/kitchen open up is a huge bonus and although small, the pool and backyard are cute for hanging out and reading. Overall, we would absolutely rent this place again and look forward to our next trip to Key West...

We booked this trip for my 30th birthday. I love to cook and specifically chose this location because the kitchen looked beautiful and it seemed to be located in the middle of the house where I could still be "part of the action". I was concerned about what utensils, pots/pans, etc would be available this being a rental property. I was very pleased to see how well stocked the kitchen was plenty of dishes, cooking utensils, 2 coffee pots (which came in handy) and pans. The rest of the house was just as well equipped. Each bedroom having access to its own bathroom was great, the front patio was perfect for practicing my yoga in the morning and the back patio, although may appear small in the pictures, seemed spacious and had plenty of room for our six adults and pet. Initially I was concerned about the location not being in walking distance to Duval but we never had trouble finding a parking spot. And I was pleased to find out the unit was in walking distance to the pier where we could see the sunset and take our dog to the dog park. At the end of our stay I was glad the unit was located on a quiet residential street. I highly recommend Villa Paridiso!

House was very nice, couple of issues with the water temperature but great, quiet location. 3 couples stayed and all had privacy.

Although the property was clean, when choosing Villa Paradiso the pictures must have been taken quite a few years ago. The property does need some work. Painting, updating. The TV was not working, the microwave was broken, the pool waterfall was not working and the matresses in two of the bedrooms were sinking into the box spring. When we notified the rental agency they did take care of the broken items. But the bedding should be updated. In general it was a pretty good stay.
