Home Brought Back to Life Hidden Off One of Hilo's Main Streets.

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.

Such a lovely home located close to shopping and restaurants. Large bedrooms enough to accommodate my family of 5 adults more space if needed. The home was very clean, the kitchen well equipped. We liked the covered vehicle carport. A plus on a rainy day. The host communicated well answering questions and concerns. We would stay here again in the future.

spacious rental house
We really enjoyed our stay here. It accommodated our family of five with plenty of space. The kitchen amenities and washer and dryer were great. It is set back off the road so we did not have any road noise. It does not have air conditioning but does have fans. With the windows open, there was great air flow and we did not need the AC. You can hear the frogs at night but we enjoyed it and it never kept us awake at night. The location was close to Walmart, restaurants, shopping, and a central location to explore the island. The owners promptly responded to any questions we had. We would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely great home away from home! Fully functional home with amenities. Beautiful property with citrus trees, lots of chirpy frogs, and great access to all of Hilo. No air conditioning, but there are tons of windows and the cross breeze is so pleasant. Being in a neighborhood, there are quiet times which is so nice!

The Best Stay!
This property is amazing, inside and out. Though we didn't hang out in the yard, we appreciated the flowers and fruit tress on the property. My sister was especially enthralled with the anthuriums, they inspired her to visit the Farmer's Market and buy some to take back to O'ahu. The inside of the house had more than we needed! So much space yet we didn't feel like we were isolated from each other. We definitely had fun playing "Family Feud" every night, so much I had to remind my 'ohana to "Shush!!" and remind them of the Quiet Neighbor rules. The welcoming makana was much appreciated after spending hours on the road - mahalo!! Beds were comfortable, fans much appreciated when it got muggy. Weirdly enough the coqui frogs didn't bother us. We all adored the barn door in the master bathroom, it is gorgeous! We felt very much at home, very welcomed and appreciate the property owners sharing their home with us. We definitely will keep this property in mind for future trips to Moku o Keawe. Mahalo from the Kaleponi 'Ohana!!

Vacation stay from the continent
It had a beautiful yard! And the carpet was really soft in the living room. Although there was LFA in the kitchen on the counter. At night we weren’t to worried about the coqui frogs making noise, sleep was not an issue. Beds were awesome to sleep on, very comfortable in all rooms! Traveling to downtown was fast and easy.

Very Comfortable
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!

Amazing Stay
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 🤙🏽

The house was very nicely renovated but also homey and comfortable with a cool breeze at night. There was plenty of space for five unrelated adults to sleep in separate beds. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed and there were plenty of bath and bedroom linens available. The hosts provided homey touches, such as a welcome bag of goodies and a book about themselves and the house. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to return to the same house in the future.
