Property Description
Aloha!
We are Keone and Yonnell Farias. We were both born and raised here on this wonderful island. We welcome you to our beautiful new home and would be happy to share with you our favorite places. Located in a quiet neighborhood of Waiakea Uka, we are a short 10-minute ride from the airport, 35 minutes to the Volcano, and just a few minutes from local grocery stores and eateries!
Waiākea Uka is translated as "the mountainside" of Waiākea. There are beautiful views of both Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa mountain. The University of Hawaii at Hilo is located in the Waiākea district as well. There are parks and convenience stores within walking distance to the house but a car would be more suitable.
Our house is your home away from home.
We want you to feel at home during your stay. We also respect your privacy. The keypad entry allows you to come and go at your convenience. We live nearby and are only a call or text away for any questions, suggestions, and housekeeping needs you may have.

This location was perfect for everything we did in Hilo - zoo, volcano, dinner in Hilo town. The location is very convenient, quiet and has a nice family friendly vibe. The house itself was very clean and well kept. It had some toys and games to keep the toddler who accompanied us busy for a bit. The coqui frog noise wasn’t too bad at all. The only thing I’d comment on is that the fan in one of the bedrooms is quite loud. Otherwise everything was perfect for our short stay in Hilo.

We enjoyed our stay. We wish however, that we had know that there was no A/C. I know it was listed and we just assumed there would be. Most people assume there is a/c it would have been nice to have seen that on the listing

We loved our stay - beautiful, newer home with all the amenities we needed. The location was super convenient to visit family in the area, and the hosts were fantastic (and very understanding when we forgot to leave the garage door opener - luckily we got it back). We hope to return on a future trip. Highly recommended.

It was a very quiet neighborhood, peaceful and perfect for college roommates celebrating our 80th birthday this year. All we wanted to do was catch up, reminisce and spend time with each other.

The property was exactly as advertised. The check-in was easy and check out was even better. The owner allowed us to keep our bags in the garage after check out so we could explore more of Hilo since our flight was later in the day. I would recommend this home without hesitation.

Great house! Perfect size for our family of 5 adults. Very clean! Beautiful view of Mauna Kea. Excellent location for Volcanoes NP, waterfalls and adventures on the east side of the island. Would definitely stay here again

We traveled with our adult kids so we really enjoyed the space to spread out. This home is very nice. The beds were comfortable and even though we didn’t cook, the kitchen was very well equipped. We would definitely stay here again.

This was a great stay for my father and I on a trip to see the Volcanos and Mauna Kea. We were there for two nights and enjoyed the stay thoroughly. Very clean, very comfortable, very quiet place to stay. With the windows open, you could hear the birds which was nice when compared to a hotel. I would recommend this for anyone who is looking for a quiet and relaxing place to stay.

Restful stay in a beautiful home for our family of 4. Having a garage to park the car was an extra bonus. The house was conveniently located to go to Hawaii volcanoes national park and to shopping areas. Wish we could have stayed longer. Thank you!

This house was in good condition and met our expectations. We had a group of 8 (4 adults, 4 kids) and had no issues. All appliances and amenities worked as expected. It's in a convenient location within Hilo. The owner was communicative and helpful.

We picked this property because it is close to family. Did not feel like a vacation rental. Newish home in a family neighborhood. No bells and whistles. Beds were just okay. Good for what we needed but would not rush to stay here again.
