Wonderful retreat overlooking the lake, about 20 minutes outside of Rotorua, Phil's place is special. It is an entire apartment with large kitchen, living room, bedroom, bathroom and a deck which overlooks the lake from above. We sat out in the late afternoon and had wine while we relaxed from our drive up from Tongariro. Phil gave us a wonderful welcoming explanation about the sights you see from the apartment/deck and made recommendations for dinner and our free time in the area. This is a terrific place to stay out of the madness in town and I recommend it most highly!!
