Our House Is Your Home Away From Home

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.

Great Stay
Good location to take advantage of the Hilo area and the east side of the Big Island. Very clean and safe. Beautiful home. Had just about everything we needed during our stay. We would stay here again, book with confidence. Left us a nice welcome package and included a dozen fresh eggs. Very much appreciated. One little thing, there is a gas grill, but if you use it there is an additional cleaning fee. That should have been disclosed in the property description.

Nice place
Property is in a very quiet residential neighborhood a ten minute drive from downtown. Kitchen was well equipped and the owners left us a dozen fresh eggs from the coop behind the house. House was clean and comfortable and you enter through the garage with a clicker so no need for keys or memorizing entry numbers. Overall a nice place.

Wonderful Stay in Hilo: Comfortable Home in a Great Location
We had an amazing time in Hilo staying at this lovely house that exceeded our expectations. The house was equipped with fantastic amenities, making our family feel right at home. The kitchen had everything we needed, the living room was cozy, and the bedrooms were spacious and well-appointed. The location of the house was perfect – a peaceful neighborhood close to Hilo's attractions. We could easily explore the town and enjoy its natural beauty. The property management team was responsive and accommodating, making our experience even better. Overall, we highly recommend this house for a comfortable and convenient stay in Hilo. It truly felt like a home away from home, and we left with wonderful memories of our time in Hawaii.

Conference
It was a perfect location, as it was just minutes away from our conference location, eating locations, open market and shopping. The home accommodated 6 adult women with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. Beautiful setting, very open for the beautiful scenery out the windows in the dining room, kitchen, living room and both bedrooms on the back of the home, with fresh and cool breezes, we were able to sit in the dining room and enjoy each other's company. Definitely a keeper. Mahalo -

Family stay in Hilo
Our family of four enjoyed a comfortable stay at this clean, welcoming home. There was plenty of room to spread out, unpack and settle in for a week. We loved the ease of pulling into the garage and loading or unloading our van on our daily excursions. The quiet fans in every room and nice breezes that flowed through the open windows kept the home comfortable. Earplugs at night while the Coqui frogs partied, allowed us restful sleep. Thank you Yonnell and Keone for welcoming us to Uhi Wai!
