A desert resort!

Davigeta 3/24/2025 TripAdvisor review

Thoroughly enjoyable stay in Yulara

minicroots Couples - 3/15/2025 TripAdvisor review

We stayed for 5 nights at the end of February. We had a rock view room with a king bed that did not disappoint. The room was very spacious and the balcony was lovely to sit out on in the morning having a morning cuppa. It was very hot during our stay (43 degrees each day) however the room is air conditioned and this remains on during the day so that you don’t walk into a hot box when you return, there is also a fridge in the room that we utilises for water, drinks and snacks. The rock view rooms are on the outer perimeter of the resort too so it is a little walk from reception, car parking and the pool and in the heat this would potentially be difficult for some. The pool area is a welcome relief after our mornings hiking and plenty of towels available. The only thing with this was the tiles being terracotta became very hot, however we placed a spare towel on the floor on the tile from our lounger to the pool edge to get in and out without burning our feet. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

Dear Minicroots, Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re delighted to hear that you had an enjoyable stay in Yulara, and that the rock view room and the pool provided a great place to relax after your hiking adventures. We appreciate your feedback regarding the walk from the reception and the heat of the terracotta tiles by the pool—it's always valuable to know how we can improve comfort for our guests. Thank you for visiting us

wahaejock 2/25/2025 TripAdvisor review

The room was ok twin double beds usual amenities + fridge. A good shower. The location not so good basically in the middle of know where. There are other hotels shops restaurants a supermarket not much choice in supermarket if any without a microwave in your room. There is some takeaways a long walk from hotel. Ok for 1or2 night stay. Breakfast i can't comment on as we left at 4.30am to catch the sunrise. the hotel did provide us with breakfast bags [reusable] which were good Cereal Milk OJ Yoghurt bar An Apple bottled water Mixed Fruit Pot and Crackers&Cheese.

Dear wahaejock, Thank you for your review! We're glad you found the room comfortable and appreciated the breakfast bags provided for your early morning departure. We understand a remote desert location could be overwhelming, but we're happy you were able to enjoy the sunrise experience. We appreciate your feedback about the supermarket options and the lack of a microwave in the room. We will discuss with management the possibility of having one in the room for future stays. Safe travels on your next adventure.

Stunning views from beautiful room
