Tahiti thatched tiki bar outdoor kitchen by Paradise Grills on a waterfront deck

Shades of Paradise

Tiki Bars & Thatched Outdoor Bars in Jacksonville

The Tahiti and the Abaco put a full Paradise outdoor kitchen under a thatched roof, so a Jacksonville backyard, pool deck or waterfront lot gets the island-vacation look with a real grill and bar built in.

More than a palapa kit

A tiki bar with a real kitchen

A DIY palapa kit gives you a roof to assemble. The bar, the grill, the counters and the wiring are still up to you. A Paradise thatched bar arrives as one design.

A thatched roof on a steel core

The thatched shade sits over an American high-grade, powder-coated steel and aluminum frame that Paradise describes as code-compliant, and snow-load compliant where applicable.

The kitchen is built in

A Paradise tiki bar is an outdoor kitchen first: a 304 stainless professional grill, bar seating and stations such as a cocktail station, refrigeration and a marine stereo are part of the design, not add-ons you source yourself.

Stone tops, not plywood

Bar and counter tops are Avellaero stone, Italian stone on a NASA-grade honeycomb core, in Titanium, Volcanic Ash, Italian Travertine or Greek Isle.

Lights, music and fans from your phone

Paradise G.I. smart-app control runs the L.E.D. bar, grill and pergola lighting, the stereo and TV, tiki shade lighting and ceiling fans.

No outdoor structure is storm-proof, and we will not tell you otherwise. See the frame and finishes in person at the showroom.

Prefer a pergola?

The rest of the Shades of Paradise collection trades thatch for a powder-coated pergola, from the Monaco to the flagship Mykonos.

Plan your spot

Backyard, pool or dock

Every Paradise base must keep a 1" gap off the ground, and the grill runs on natural gas or propane, so plan for a level pad and your gas and power lines from the start.

Backyard

A tiki bar gives a plain lawn or patio a destination. A stand-alone hut can shade seating on its own, or cover a full outdoor kitchen.

Pool deck

Set the bar where swimmers can reach it and the cook can still see the pool. Plan the walkway and seating so the grill sits away from splash zones.

Dock or waterfront

On the St. Johns, the Intracoastal or a backyard lagoon, have your marine contractor confirm the dock or seawall can carry the structure before you buy.

Check with your HOA first

Many Jacksonville, Nocatee and St. Johns County neighborhoods have an HOA or architectural review board that has to approve a thatched structure before it goes up. Read our Knowledge Center guide on HOAs and permits, and use a free 3D design of your yard for the submission.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is a Paradise tiki bar different from a palapa kit?

A palapa kit is a roof. A Paradise Tahiti or Abaco is a complete outdoor kitchen under a thatched shade: a powder-coated American steel and aluminum frame, a built-in stainless grill and bar, Avellaero stone tops, and smart-app control of the lighting, stereo and fans.

What is the difference between the Tahiti and the Abaco?

Both are thatched Shades of Paradise kitchens. The stand-alone Tahiti Tiki Hut is 12' round, and the Tahiti Double carries two 32" stations. The Abaco is a larger thatched hut, 16'x16' or 18'x16' as a stand-alone, with a grill island and attached island bar.

Do I need HOA approval for a tiki bar in Jacksonville?

Many Northeast Florida neighborhoods have an HOA or architectural review board that must approve structures like a thatched hut, and your city or county may need a permit. Check before you buy. Our Knowledge Center covers HOAs and permits, and a free 3D design helps with your submission.
