The service and attention of Hawaii Life Rentals was excellent. The home is unique and the pictures represent it well.The house is beautifully set in a jungle feel with lush gardens. It is in a development about 15 blocks from a park area on cliffs above the ocean and an easy drive to Hilo beaches.
All renters should be aware that wild chickens populate the property and there is a cocks farm nearby. That contributes to pre-dawn cacophony provided by other birds. In the evening the frogs begin to croak. We enjoyed the sense of nature but advise you to BRING EAR PODS for quiet. That said, if you enjoy a uniquely delightful experience, this choice is for you.

Pictures don’t do this place justice. The yard is lush , private and full of color. All 3 bungalows have full views of the gardens with complete privacy. Listening to the rain , the frogs or even the roosters was so cool. The bathtub and dining room were my two favorite spots. The neighbors dog barks from time to time but besides that it’s a beautiful slice of paradise in the jungle. Such a unique place to call

I stayed at this property for a month in 2021 and was so excited to return again for three weeks at the beginning of 2023. Upon arrival, the place was so magical - just as I remembered it. Unfortunately though, in the time span since I had last been there, the neighbors got new dogs who barked for many long stretches throughout the day and night, sometimes for hours at a time. Sadly, it greatly affected my ability to enjoy my time at the property and I had to move a week into my stay. While this was an unfortunate development, the team at Hawaii Life Vacation Rentals was so helpful and accommodating in finding me a new place to stay. They took my concerns seriously and were both prompt and caring with their communication. I'm sad things didn't work out with this house, but I am very grateful to have had the support of Hawaii Life, specifically Jolanta & Robinette. Thank you ladies for finding me a new place to stay! It turned out to be a really wonderful place to finish out my stay on the island. Though I may not be able to recommend this property (as long as the barking remains), I highly recommend booking with Hawaii Life Vacation Rentals!

We loved our stay at Peace of Paradise. We didn't realize that air conditioning not always available on the Island, however nights were very comfortable. There are people next door that make happy sounds, but you can't see them. I will stay at Peace of Paradise again when visiting family.

the property is very private even though there are close neighbors on each side and in the back. kids on one side very noisy and animals (dogs and chickens) have their early morning routine with greeting the day. No laundry facilaties make an extended stay difficult since there were no extra bed linens or towels. the bed was comfortable with extra pillows. no comfortable outside furniture available

Peace of Paradise was truly a gem and a pleasure to call home for 4 nights. The tropical lush grounds made you feel a world away, and that’s exactly where I wanted be. Location was great for our daily explorations of the Hilo side of the island. The neighborhood dog visitors were surely a perk for us, may not be for some. The wildlife at night does get quite audible. It wasn’t an issue for us and truly added to the experience of checking out of reality. If you are a light sleeper you may want to bring ear plugs. Peace of Paradise was perfect for us. Mahalo.

Welcome to Peace of Paradise - A New Vacation Rental with Hawaii Life Vacations!

Our jungle get-away surrounded by an acre of fruit trees and tropical landscaping is the perfect place to unwind from the hustle and bustle of city life and enjoy all the Big Island has to offer. This home will make you wish you never had to leave! Individual bungalows separated by walkways and decks create living spaces as unique and beautiful as the surrounding gardens, allowing you to truly feel a part of the outdoors. There are three separate living areas (detached bungalows) connected by decks and walk ways. Both the bedroom and living room bungalows feature large floor to ceiling windows, giving you a wonderful peak into the lush setting

The first bungalow is a large open living room with a (small) TV and DVD player. Note: There is no cable or satellite here. This space can be an entertainment room – for movies or games, a great place to meditate, or even curl up with a good book. There are sleeping mats in the living room for extra guests.

Across the lanai from the living area is the second bungalow and the charming master bedroom ensuite. Sleeping commodities include a comfortable full size bed in the bedroom with mosquito netting. The lovely soaking tub is a favorite spot to relax and look out over the garden, through the surrounding windows – you have complete privacy. Behind the bedroom outside is an enclosed outdoor shower for quick convenient rinse offs.
Please expect to share your space with some of our friendly Hawaii geckos, lizards, coqui frogs, birds, and plants.

The lush tropical landscaping includes numerous citrus, mango, lychee and starfruit trees. The pond feature which leads over a small bridge to a Zen-like garden makes this a calm and beautiful getaway that is not to be missed.
