Sails in the Desert - A member of Pullman Hotels 5 stars

Fabulous resort. Friendly helpful staff, gorgeous grounds, excellent accommodation and delicious food - what more could you want? An experience to remember. The guided tours are definitely recommended.

Brilliant from start to finish. From the airport pick up, welcome drink, spacious room, perfect location. Great place for relaxing and knowing nothing is too much trouble for the staff. Highly recommend staying here.

We spent a night here on the way to Longitude 131 as we wanted to not be caught with a big loss in case our flight here was cancelled or delayed. We were expecting a pretty crappy hotel but it was better than that, at least in the top suites. We had a deluxe suite with a connecting room (rooms 263 and 267). It had several terraces, a really nice bathroom and living room and the bedroom was decent. The connecting twin room was fine as well. Everything had been recently renovated. The TV's never worked; something with the satellite. People occasionally answered the telephones. Good AC and water. The grounds are pretty and look like a typical kibbutz guesthouse. The swimming pool was unheated and quite cold. The dinner and breakfast buffets were a pleasant surprise; they were really good. There is no gym here -- a big disappointment because a place like this certainly could support one. The hotel offers a courtesy shuttle from the airport, which is about a ten minute ride. The hotel is 5 minutes walk from a small town square with shopping, art gallery, supermarket and various amusements such as a theater with hourly programs during the day, but for some reason the lunch cafe and ice cream kiosk close at 2pm and the ticketing office opens at 10, which makes no sense to people going on day trips that need a ticketing office in the morning and a cafe or a treat when they return. There is an overlook for nice views of the Rock at sunset and we went to the evening drone show which was meh. It probably makes more sense if you are "high" when you watch it because none of us understood its exceedingly slow story line. I wouldn't want to spend more than a day or two here because I think you'd go bonkers with boredom after a day of the buffets and no gym, but for what it is as a stopover, it was fine. It's also fine if this is the place you are going to use as a base for exploring the area.

OMG a must when you visit Uluru. Stayed in a terrace room and the space in side and the outdoor area was amazing. Very comfortable beds, a toilet problem was rectified at lightening speed. The buffet breakfast was so plentiful and scrumptious. Short walk to shops for any necessities. When we arrived we were greeted with a small drink and towel to freshen up before we had even checked in! When we departed via coach to Alice Springs, our baggage was looked after and we did not have to worry about anything. Would not choose anywhere else if I came here again.

Lovely hotel, all staff are professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. The food at both restaurant and bar is very good and the specialty drinks were a treat with native ingredients starring. Transport was spot on. Completely satisfied with everything about the stay. Hope to return soon and stay longer
