Food was just “OK”. Main reason for poor review was: first there were ants in our bed. Next morning we asked and they promptly moved us to a new room where there were, wait for it, also ants in the bed and a spider on the wall. I know it’s the desert but seriously invest in some frequent pest control services! Customer facing staff was nice. Not their fault. Area is worth seeing but no more than 2 nights recommended.

What an experience staying in Ayers Rock Resort at Sails in the Desert. Comfortable large room. A/C much needed and worked very well. Loved the non slip tiles in the modern bathroom. Dining options, especially breakfast, a little overpriced but lots of other restaurants, takeouts and supermarket to choose from. We bought some wine at the airport before we flew as the resort is dry so you can only buy in the restaurants or at the bottle shop. We visited The Field of Light, Uluru at sunset and sunrise with a trip to Kata Tjuta and Walpa Gorge. Amazing!! Shout out to Glen our tour guide with AAT Kings on the sunrise tour. What a passionate and happy guide he is!!

Great location for Uluru…. Hop on/off bus service made travel very easy and was free….. Room was good, although not fully equipped when we arrived….very quickly resolved. No pool towels due to laundry delays….not the end of the world but just a bit frustrating. All in all a good hotel in a fabulous location!

You are in a national park so you don’t expect too much. I found that they did the minimum in servicing the rooms. Food was fair. They are ver organized and the timing of everything is good. It’s comfortable and that’s what you can expect
