Great Barrier Island vacation rentals

We stayed for four nights with friends. We thoroughly enjoyed the space and location both of which were excellent. Fiona's communication was very good and she was flexible in accommodating our needs which was appreciated. We would highly recommend this airbnb to others. Jonathan & Carol

Prime location in Medlands. 2min walk to the beach. 1min drive to local brewery/coffee spot. Loved the layout of the house. Two pods, lounge/kitchen/dining then a two bedroom with bathroom inbetween. Huge deck with beanbags, chairs, outdoor lounge suite & table and chairs. Huge outdoor umbrella that you can move to any spot you like and adjust to sun. Perfect for summer. Kitchen fully stocked with everything you need to cook with, eat with etc. Sunny location - all day sun. Nadia was super efficient with communication and super accommodating. Loved our stay at the hut. Thank you so much.

What a kind, generous man in a fantastic place. Alan was such a wonderful host, nothing was too much trouble. Staying at his house is a rare opportunity to experience the true Barrier spirit. From the first moment of contacting Alan to the moment we left we could not have asked for more.

We had a great weekend at Koru Cottage. The master bedroom has beautiful views out to the surrounding bush. Opening up all the doors of the cottage during a sunny day was fantastic. The kitchen was well stocked with basic cooking supplies, utensils, crockery, etc. The outdoor shower and toilet took a bit of getting used to, but was a great novelty for the kids. Kids are well catered for with toys, books and cosy beds. It's a steep (and only partially paved) walk up from the carpark at the camping ground, but the view is great and it doesn't take long until you're up at the cottage. Shane also organised a car for us on the cottage side of the creek, which was really helpful for tired little legs after a big day of exploring the island. We'd recommend this place for couples or families with small children. A great base while on the island.

We loved our time staying at the Barrier - it was a perfect location, amazing bird life and great place to stay for families. We would recommend the Aotea walk.

Neill is a very welcoming, friendly and generous host. His home was fully equipped and functional with everything we needed for the duration of our stay. Stunning views, comfortable and private. Highly recommend!! Cheers Neil, you're a legend mate Leah and Leon

Unbelievable views, lovely bach and fantastic hosts. Our first time to Aotea and we couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay.

We absolutely loved our stay at Great Barrier Island . Dirk and Angela are friendly hosts and great communication. The house is in a perfect location, easy walk to pub, store , cafe and stunning beaches . Great views of the sea and hills . For an off the grid bach you couldn’t want for anything , tv , dishwasher, coffee machine. Family enjoyed the pool table and table tennis . Thoroughly recommend staying here and can’t wait to come back .
