Perfect for two families
This bach was ideal for our two families. Lots of space and plenty of ensuite bathrooms. The kitchen was a highlight, great outlook for entertaining. Epic view out to Medlands beach. From star-gazing, to snapper to surfing and swimming, we had an awesome holiday!

Large, well appointed accommodation with stunning views
The property was across an estuary which could only be crossed at low to mid tide. This was a concern at first, but the old subaru ferried us and our stuff up and down the hill, and it proved only to be a minor inconvenience. There was 7 of us, on a surf trip. Catering was not difficult. There were enough pans, crockery and cutlery and glassware. The beds were comfortable. and there are multiple bathrooms. The house is run on solar electricity. We didn't run out of electricity (but we did turn off the lights when not needed. I understand there is a generator if needed) Overall we were very happy with the place. Note there is no inhouse laundry (not an issue if you bring enough undies)

Luxurious, large, off-the-grid bach
Despite the terrible weather, we had a wonderful stay at Barrier Headquarters. The beds and couch were very comfortable, the kitchen is huge and well appointed, and there are lots of bathrooms too. The view from the deck is impressive, as pictured. Lots of good walks around - including the Kowhai Track, along the beach and around the bay. We weren't impressed when the cost per night jumped after we reduced our stay from 4 nights to 3 nights, but Anthony was so accommodating, we forgave him!

Best spot on the barrier
AJ’s place was fantastic, he was such a responsive host and ensured our stay was easy. The place is across the river crossing so it is important to have a 4WD or arrange for AJ to transport you and your luggage from the campground. Would definitely stay again

Wow. Just wow. What a special place. Pictures don't do the house and the view justice, this might just be the most incredible spot on the island. We had such a special family holiday, what an experience. We will be back!

Beautiful location and incredibly well built! Would definitely stay again
Had an excellent vibe about it only slightly off the beat and track meaning you are able to get lost in the wilderness of GBI. Large kitchen and good size bedrooms!

Beautiful property great hosts
We arrived at Claris made our way from the airport to the accommodation. the car parking for the property is in a small Reserve which is part of a campground you cross over a small bridge and there is a car stored on the other side to take you up the hill. the walk is about 5 to 8 minutes if you should choose to. I believe there is a bushwalk but we never actually found this. the house has amazing views the weather for us was a bit marginal but the house is beautifully appointed. there is no toaster and no jug everything is done on or in the oven. As we were a group of 8 that was suggested we got the fire going to ensure there was enough hot water however no kindling was supplied and we had to go to a neighbour for an axe to actually cut some but once that was done we were away as wokd was made available. the house was beautifully warm and we never run out of hot water .The heating was using the log fire and radiators in bottom bedrooms. The hosts were amazing with great communication and more than happy to accommodate in anyway I would certainly recommend the house, its appointments, it's location and the hosts to anybody looking. there is no washing machine available just be aware that is down the road at the local store so that also needs to be a consideration potentially for longer stays. Thankyou

Absolutely stunning stay
This was the absolute best place to come and relax after doing the Aotea track with a big crew. Very clean and spacious and a gorgeous view and easy access to the beach. Also, Anthony and Lucia were both very communicative and friendly and really helped us have the best stay possible. We are already planning our next trip back to Great Barrier and will definitely be staying here again. :) Thanks so much for an amazing stay.

Stunning house and location
This is very well appointed rental accommodation and absolutely perfect for three couples. The views are outstanding and the house is spotless. The beds and linen are excellent and the owner is very friendly and helpful. If you want luxury beach accommodation in a remote setting, this place fits the bill.
