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

Welcome to your ideal getaway at our beautifully restored home in Hilo, Hawaii. We are Keone and Yonnell Farias, lifelong residents of this stunning island, and we’re excited to share our cherished space with you.

Nestled in the peaceful neighborhood of Waiakea Uka, our residence is conveniently located just a 10-minute drive from the airport, 35 minutes from the magnificent Volcano, and only moments away from local grocery stores and delicious eateries.

This inviting house features three spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms, designed for comfort and relaxation. The open living area flows into a cozy family room, while the kitchen seamlessly connects to the dining space—perfect for gathering with loved ones. Step outside to enjoy the expansive yard adorned with fruit trees and a beautiful garden showcasing the beauty of local flora. Located on a flag lot off one of Hilo's main streets, you'll appreciate both easy access and the tranquility of privacy during your stay.

The story behind Maunaleo is one filled with fond memories for Keone. Growing up, he would run past this property, captivated by the lush fruit trees that once graced its yard. A year ago, the opportunity arose to purchase it, and with quick action, we made it ours. For a year, we lovingly referred to it as our "new, old house" as we poured our hearts into its restoration. With the help and stories from neighboring residents, we preserved much of its nostalgic charm while enhancing its appeal. Now, we can't wait to share this special place with you!

Your safety and satisfaction are paramount to us, which is why we want to assure you that we are a legally registered property. All bookings must go through established rental platforms, so please refrain from sending money or making arrangements via social media messaging.
