    Aloha! We are Keone and Yonnell Farias. We were both born and raised here on this wonderful island. We welcome you to our beautiful re-done 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!
    Like the house we grew up in..3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, open living room, nostalgic family room, kitchen opens to the dining room, huge yard with fruit trees, and beautiful local garden. A flag lot off one of Hilo's main streets leaves easy access yet privacy for your getaway.
    There is a nice story behind Maunaleo, Keone would run pass this home from teen years to adulthood, he would always admire the fruit trees in the yard. One day a year ago, he saw it was for sale. We quickly called the realtor and put in a bid for it. We were blessed to get it. For a year we called it our "new, old house", our "work in progress". We talked to many of the neighbors who gave us the history of the place, we decided to keep some its nostalgic beauty. We put a lot of love, a lot of hard, long workdays, and it finally got to where it is. Now we'd like to share it with you!
    We're sad to add this to our message to guests but care about your security and hard-earned money: We are a legally registered property, all bookings are only done on rental sites, we would not solicit through social media messaging. Please do not book or send money through them.

    Our family stayed here and it was perfect for our needs: quiet, back from the main road, lovely fruit trees in the yard, coquis lulling us to sleep at night and so clean and well equipped with everything we could possibly need. Even a lovely little welcome bag from the hosts with local goodies. This was a long awaited vacation for us and our lodging in this sweet home did not disappoint. After long days out exploring the island, we came "home" to comfort and quiet. Would definitely recommend this home away from home to others!

    When we arrived at this vacation home, we were greeted with some island treats. The home is very beautiful and the yard was filled with life. The kitchen was clean and it had what we needed to cook. I slept in the room that had 2 beds and it was comfy. Theres a 2nd living room/playroom that was perfect for us when we were jamming the Ukulele and playing cards. FYI You can find the cards in the kitchen drawer near the door. This is an amazing place to stay when visiting Hilo, HI. So if your thinking about staying at this place, I highly recommend it. Also the owners are very friendly and welcoming. Mahalo Yonnell for your understanding and we will surely be staying here again. We appreciate you-- The ladies from Waianae 🤙🏽

    Stayed here with my family and loved everything! Great communication with Yonnell. Amazing location, safe and close to UH Hilo. House was renovated well and super clean. Modern, simple decorations. Had all of the important things - linen, rice cooker, games, shampoo, soap, laundry soap, beach towels, etc. Wonderful gift bag with local treats. Enjoyed the photo book with Maunaleo’s story! Hope to stay here again! Thank you for everything!
