Staff are very friendly. Bought a bracelet from here which unfortunately fell apart by the time I got back home. Contacted the store via email and Scott was very helpful, sending me a replacement.
Great customer service and thank you!

Best pearl shop ever! Great quality of great price. Pearl Jewelry of different styles, color, freshwater or Akoya. I purchased a pair of freshwater pearl ear studs which is much much cheaper than normal stores in my city but better quality when traveling there. Did see a pair of gorgeous akoya pearls, and would say that it’s very similar to my Mikimoto pearls, but only 1/6 price of it. Started regretting of not buying it. Scott is so helpful, nice and patient. He will find the style and color that really fits you and also introduced Hawaii to us a lot

Wife bought necklace at discount .. spent an extra hour in here because we got to open a clam for free pearl but then they they pressure you into buying expensive necklace to hold the pearl. And the lady that helped us had terrible breath . I couldn't take it no more and had to walk out ... #couldntbreathe

I have shopped for pearls in various places in the world and I most say "I Am Paradise is the most beautiful of all. They offer a plethora of the most exquisite custom jewelry made by local Hawaiian jewelers and artist . I highly recommend stopping in to take a look. The Aloha is so strong it can be sensed from other galaxies!

Great little shop. Person there was helpful and very generous with us today. He gave us a discount that we didn't even ask for or know was advertised. They have inexpensive and pretty gifts; definitely worth a specific stop if you are in Haleiwa.

I have a ring from I Am Paradise that I love and have worn every single day for 15 years. The small pearls in the ring had started to wear down over time and I was worried because IAP doesn't make the style any more. We happened to be in the North Shore after Christmas and we stopped in, hoping beyond hope that they could repair my beloved ring. The Sales woman called the owner who immediately said he would fix it. I was astounded! He took it, fixed, cleaned it and sent it back to me within 2 weeks. AT NO CHARGE!!!
To the owner Scott, the jeweler, all the staff..... Thank you so very much

Cute shop in Haleiwa with jewelry from cute to trendy to glamourous. Prices are reasonable and they always seem to have some special or sale. I believe much of the jewelry is made there in the shop. Sales people are friendly and knowlegeable. I always go there for Christmas gifts where I can find jewelry for my nieces under $15 but usually walk out with at least two items for myself. They're also very friendly to kids - my son walked out this December with candy canes and a free jewelry "box" made out of a shell.

When in Hawaii, buy pearls? It seems like it's one of the standard shops that you can find anywhere on the island. Pearls are one of my birthstone options, so if I find something with either a unique or simple setting, I'm intrigued.

My friend and I stopped in and they were having a terrific sale. 20% off freshwater pearls, and then a buy-one-get-one-free sale on some other jewelry. We each ended up with a nicely sized dark freshwater pearl (mine is almost chocolately-silver) on a leather thong and split the cost. Yay. I love bargains.

The selection is pretty good, and the staff is
