I do not completely understand "tucked"
"un paraiso lejos de la civilización"/"Un paraiso alejado de la civilización"
other option is "un paraiso escondido a la civilización", but for that you can use the first one.

saludos

Tucked away can mean hidden (escondido). It can also mean far away, remote, removed or isolated. Sosia provided good options.

Un paraíso escondido a | lejos de | alejado de | aislado de la civilización.

I think that will work, but how about this one? un paraíso casi desconocido. Is it on the Indian Ocean?
